If you are taking recommendations for these things, I agree on the wheels for sure. I'd probably run 120/80-10 front and rear kenda dual sport tires on there if you can get them or the same ones that came on the pitster motards.

Its interesting that you haven't updated to a disc front while sporting a motor capable of going 60mph.

Last request...will it be available as a roller?

BTW, I have a gpx177v2 stuffed in my 1971 ct70. Fun times.

I think the disc that is up front is a tad bit strong,, can you say stoppies!!

How are the swingarm bushings? The Hooper Imports units I got to play with a couple years back had plastic bushings that wallowed in about 5 seconds, made riding interesting... get on the throttle and it'd want to turn one way, let off and suddenly it's trying to go the other way...

My drums do ok actually, Im pretty happy with them.

I would like to upgrade to a disc front end though.
Bring some parts over too pitster!!

If you want something different for one of these pitster has one set of UPS forks, with compression and rebound , front disc wheel, trees and even the fold down bars .

I wonder who the maker is of this bike?

If the pitster is a Lifan, they use the same style rubber bushing as the older hondas.

Not Lifan. Pitster has put alot into having even the smallest details taken care of on this project.

Where is this? Post pics or a link on this! If this bolts right on a CT70 I'd probably get myself one of them.

And with a low front fender, it's more of a roadbike since the chinese patterned it after the 1995 Honda AB26 12V Dax.

Have Gary Send me one to test and I'll give you a full report and will tell you exactly what needs to be changed. It will have to be gratis as I need another bike like a hole in the head.

Z for all your wisdom I would request 2 units shipped to you at no cost. Your wisdom probly just saved them thousands in warranty repairs.
