G'day all, im all new to the fast 50 world. Ive had a heap of "big" bikes and a few Pitbikes but now im finally building my dream CRF50. Its 100% stock right now.

What is the 1st few things i should do? I should say i will not be racing or jumping it, its just to look **** hot and cruise around on.

Cheers Everyone

welcome to Miniriders,

and drop into the Introduce Yourself thread and say g'day too, post up a pic of your bike if you can

there are a heap of CRF50 build threads here, in the Japanese Builds section, you may have already seen them?

i'm sure one of the 50 owners will give you a few suggestions on what to do, and what to look out for.

here is a good site for parts too-

welcome to miniriders bud
no way you gotta ride ya bike bro hard man get some bars decent tyres front/rear suspension and go bush :cheer2:

Thanks for the nice welcome, tall bar, seat is already ordered. What front and rear suspension is the go? I like the TBR forks, can I get away with just a HD rear spring instead of a new shcok as well?
Does anyone bother to strengthen the frames if not doing big jumps etc? Cheers

Thanks everyone, i'll have a good read whilst on chrissie break then start a Build thread. Should receive some goodies in the mail early new year. Only had the crf for 2 days and spent a small fortune on parts
