Re: Some day

I don't know.It keeps changing.Probably 88-99 seat and tank,a piece of 7/8" pipe for bars,some longer shocks,and probably a chinker engine.I have an idea for moving some stock pegs back but I haven't had time to do any R&D on that yet.Chopped down white XR/CRF front fender,and a Z rear fender with no number plates.The plan keeps changing cause I just buy what I can get a good deal on.I'll probably stretch the frame out about 3 inches too.Again,we'll see.It will have a Z50 rear wheel with Kings tire and an IRC front tire.I'm trying to find a chrome Z50 rear wheel but nothing yet.Like the title says,some day.

Re: Some day

Well it looks like my drag bike will probably be parted out long before I ever get it done.My daughters mother is crazy as HELL and it looks like my daughter will be coming to live with me.Even with saving the CRAZY amount of child support I pay,I won't have the toy money I've been enjoying for so long.I'll probably part out my XR70 and sell my big bike too.I suppose I'll have to sell some of my sweet firearms as well.Oh well,gotta save my daughter.Too bad,this would have been a cool bike...

Re: Some day

Well at least I'll be able (hopefully) to keep the Z in the background and my XR50 motard with TB RH 88 kit,TB manual clutch kit,BBR swing arm,etc,etc.Kid takes priority though so who knows...

Seems like the best way to save your daughter would be to keep the firearms for protection and build her a mini!

Re: Some day

SOME things are more important than minibikes.....Keep the daughter,,,sell the firearms to fund a minibike for her, then you have a riding buddy : )

Re: Some day

I'm in a similiar situation. My ex is more stupid than crazy though. My girl is almost 9 years old. She knows who's cool and who's not. I don't have her full time but I do have her about half the time.
Minibikes come and go...Having the opportunity to be a HERO in her life is once in a lifetime.

GOOD LUCK BRO...

Re: Some day

Looks good. Are the CRF and Z tire the same size in OD?

Re: Some day

Na, there kind of goofy looking.

You should just use a straight piece of pipe to give it that drag bike look and feel.
