i still have the black plastic and will switch back and forth every one and a while, i wanted a change.yea the seat was getting a new cover, it was all red before and didnt look good with the red plastic so i got red/black seat cover so it would look good with both sets of plastic.the hub bearings i got from service honda they were $40. for all 4.

you didnt put the seat cover on yourself? is it a hard job. it looked pretty easy, although i got mine put on at a local shop on my warrior seat for only like $30...

Lou. It looks good But I was a huge fan of the Black plastic as well. No matter what it still looks pimp. And I know you still have the Black.

I can't wait to meet ya at Rausch. Not to mention drool all over your R.

how much did what set me back?the seat and plastic or the whole bike???????????
i kinda built the whole thing. i bought the bike for like $3g and pretty much replaced everything but the motor, front braking componets, hubs, and rear brakes.
i would say i have over $10g into it

01-10-2003, 08:36 PM

I was a fan of the black also :p

Lou, Do you like the 20" front MX's? Thats what I bought and Im not sure if I'll like them :(

free: i just got those xc tires and i will be using them for xc, i have another set of mx tires to puit on when i hit the mx track.

stock:yea, im not sure if i like them either.i had been using radials for a few years and loved them, i just wanted to try the mx's out because evryone is using them.they tend to make me OVER steer all the time. like if im going around a turn and i turn to the left, it seems like it wants to spin out real easy.not sure if they just need getting used to or what.
