Re: Look what is rolling into my garage!

I am in Illinois and we have a grey market titling for bikes and cars at our DMV. Very easy to title. The bike is basically a xr100 frame so anything can be done to it. I have lots of plans for it as these are huge in japan, like all of the cool bikes. It won't be getting the DOHC motor but it will be getting a Superhead motor from Takegawa that plus I haven't decided yet on the dry clutch. We'll see as time goes on what goodies she will acquire.

Re: Look what is rolling into my garage!

YOu can easily pop in a xr200 or 250 motor in it and call it a day. I''ve been looking for one of these for quite a while but eventually gave up.

Look at this one:

HOW ABOUT 90 MPH ON A XL75???????

Re: Look what is rolling into my garage!

Wow I like the xr200 motor option! The bike is a 2002 and if anyone wants one I know of two more available. One is the red white and blue version while the other is black with the orange and white striping. I think one is stock and the other has a pipe. Also I know of xr50 and xr100 motards available brand new. None of them are super cheap but they are available.

Re: Look what is rolling into my garage!

The apes are all 50's the XR's are 1 100 and 2 50 I think all in red. Mine started out as a 50 but it does have the 80cc takegawa kit already on it. I don't like to post prices on forums so PM me if you really want to know.

Re: Look what is rolling into my garage!

What the point of having some rare and of interest to people and then chop it up and mod. Leave the mini a mini. It is cool because of what it is, a Honda Ape 50.

Re: Look what is rolling into my garage!

Trust me Razzo the mini is staying a mini. I am just going to turn it into the mini I always wanted. It won't be getting a chopped in motor but it will be getting the G Craft make over.
