thanks lads, today i got a new seat and some ASVee copy levers as the ones pictured are not right and dont really want to butcher anything to make it fit when i can get something to fit, still going with black levers though.

ASv copies sort of don't fit right either, on my brake lever I had to shim it to stop it wobbling.

Yeah ya right mate, and if you don't shim and overtighten it, new master cylinder time.

Am seriously thinking of getting one of these subframe extensions as we all know the standard klx style frames are notorious for not protecting the rear fender when the bike flips destroying your plastics.KLX110 Style Frame Rear Extension
Any thoughts, but im pretty defianate i will be getting one, will also come in handy for lifting on the back of the tilly.

Yep I got one for me bro's klx. Works a treat and definetly sturdies up the back alot. The extra handholds also makes it

 

[rotn50]

Thats enough for me, next payday im gettn one, $25 plus post is sweet for me dude

 

[rotn50]

Put the bars, levers, grips, throttle and killswitch on today.

Front fender and number plate.

And also the seat is mocked up. Cant put the rear fender and sides on yet as i will be purchasing a subframe extension. And the red CNC brake pedal got hooked up to the master cylinder with about 15mm movement in the pedal till full brake.

Thanks mate, looks the goods for sure, $65 delivered off ebay, cant get it from china that cheap. The engine rebuild is soon, so will look a little more complete

 

[Carlts]

Nice as man! You should be right to chuck the back plastics on atm as the extension should bolt on afterward

Keep us posted, looking to be a sick build man!

 

[rotn50]

Got another piece of the puzzle today,

the klx subframe extender, hopefully it will help the rear fender survive a bit longer than 1 ride.
I thought it would be made from thicker material, but it is solid bar and not hollow, anyway its going on.
Hopefully will get some more done this weekend.

Looks awesome mate!! should polish your triple clamp to match your wheels! Just a thought!

Ya never know mate, any advice is good advice cheers corey

 

[rotn50]

Got around to installing a few things today, heres the subframe extender mocked up,

Then removed it and installed the rear fender in between it and the frame, the plastics kit i got had the 2 short side panels, so i picked up 2 new acerbis klx 110 sides, and installed the seat.

Also got round 2 attaching the front brake line on the caliper and master cylinder and is all bled up and working a treat.

So it is getting there slowly and looks more like a bike now.

I have about 60mm of the fork leg thru the top triple clamp and will bring them down to level it out a tad more with the back fender.

looks awesome, crf70/lxr front number plate i see? looks sick, thinking of mine old plate of the lxr on the pitpro.
think i might build one of these next and sell the pitpro i have

 

[rotn50]

Thanks harry, i chose to leave the extender white also, it blended in with the DNM spring, even the red grips i wasnt sure about but think they fit right in, im really liking how it is coming along and everything has kinda been simple without any mods or hammer strikes to fix lol. Yeah the front plate is great wraps around nice and even the front fender is a fraction different than the stock pitpro one it had, the whole KLX style is growing on me and am now a fan haha.

[rotn50]
