Hey Pete...

How about a minty TB117 for your CRF?

It may just find it's way to the "for sale" section any day now...

I could use that oil cooler.

Nice motor work. Looking forward to hearing how she rides with the new setup.

EddieNewYork · 06-10-2009, 10:10 AM

For shizzle... hopefully tonight.

NHCT70 · 06-10-2009, 04:14 PM

Nice work! Cant wait to see the finished pics.

EddieNewYork · 06-14-2009, 03:25 PM

It started on the first kick and purred like a kitten... I took it for a spin and it actually scared me a little.

I still need to order a new rear sprocket, a cone type air filter, and get my oil cooler hooked up.

So after the initial ride, I did notice neutral was a little bugger to find and the light gave slightly false readings at times. Next time I'm going to file down or bend up the edges a tad so there's just a little less contact area on the switch. I haven't tried yet, but I might even be able to pop out the neutral switch and try working it with some needle nose pliers.

Pimpindahoes · 06-14-2009, 03:39 PM

eddie that thing looks so nice......the build looks like you know what your doing and i like the fact you keep everythign so clean.....

i just about got my 110 Mod for the dirt done so once that is done ill be able to spend time building the supermoto bike.

Cant wait to go for some canyon runs with our bikes!

mattmofob · 06-14-2009, 03:49 PM

I like that kick starter, I didn't know kitaco made a black one.
The g-craft clutch cover looks cool with the matching wheel centers.

RAZZO · 06-14-2009, 03:52 PM

That Z looks super Eddie!! Rockin the drum brakes too! That's how its done. Great bike.

Thanks homie!! Yeah, I'm a clean freak... when I went to install the exhaust and saw the old nuts were a little dinged up and dirty, I stopped and drove to autozone for new ones!

Hell yeah, looking forward to seeing that sumo! And after many street traffic "car dodging" rides, I'm so looking foward to just carving up some canyons.

LOL, thanks razzo!!

NHCT70 · 06-14-2009, 07:25 PM

Thanks for the update. The bike looks awsome!

HymieP · 06-14-2009, 10:14 PM

That is a great looking bike. Love the exhaust and the G-Craft stuff. Super nice build!

s_10onbagz · 06-14-2009, 10:44 PM

Eddie, your bikes are so clean. I wish I spent the time and money to keep my bikes as clean. What was your top speed with the gpx and then with the tb108rh? Are those 27 or 30mm takegawa forks? You really made the bike look like a big bike. It is too bad over doesn't offer exhausts with the 360 degree bend under the motor like wheelie kids does.

have you considered moving up to 12" black ct70 rims? That would finish the bike off nicely. I will email you later on about those side panels. If you ever visit ny you should bring a bike so we can go for a ride. Ahaha.

Thanks Morgan, the gpx topped out around 50. I'm hoping to get the 108 to just shy of 70.

The forks are 27mm. Now I need to buy some of those Ferodo brake shoes cause it got a little scary yesterday.

I'm keeping this on 10s. I like the look of wide 10 inchers on the monkey. The ZB is getting the 12s though which I think suits the bike better because its slightly larger all around.
