Nice! What swing arm is that, and how much longer is it?

Re: Lets see your 90's white Z50's

Hello,

I love the the way your bike sits, and I would like to do something similar. Does the +3 swinger make enough room to run 10" rims with slicks? What did you do with front end? Are those +1 CroMo fork legs? XR legs because you can bolt the fork guards? Are you running HD springs that are stock length or are they longer? Would it be possible for you to post a pic of the right side of your bike?

Thanks,
Greg

Far from original and definatly an addiction. the gpx 146 motor has been pulled to put the 88cc in for the 2up vintage class and possibly vegas next year.

Re: Lets see your 90's white Z50's

1Life... Thats one of my favorite Z's on here. Didn't you have a Mono shock on there before? I think the duals look better anyway. I'm getting that triple from Lyle and doing the same front end on my new Z project. Was it hard to get that CRF bar clamp fitted to the top clamp?

Thanks for the compliment. Yes there was a mono shock setup on the old original frame but it started to tear the subframe away from the backbone because of where i mounted the top of the shock and not gusseting the frame. The works performance shocks was a much better way to go althought they were not cheap.

I had to drill four new holes to put the top clamp on the triple but it gave me the height i needed for the bars and got them a little farther away as well.

Could you post up close-ups of the front brake setup?

I posted the original photos back in 2007. Since then the mini collection has morphed and grown a bit . . .



The original photo of the bike with my son on it at the top changed into the Yellow Mini Enduro.

The Middle one is pretty much the same as before. I cleaned some of the plastic, but am still working out the plan for it.

The panda is my current street tagged 50, lots of plans for it, but that's for a different thread.





These damn things are as much of an addiction as all of the other bikes!

It's a Giant XTC NRS DS1 Mountain Bike with some downhill rims on it.



This is not mine, just the same model. I have added some Ditch Witch wide downhill rims and a few other changes. Fun bike, but my minis are more fun and less work to ride
