Does anyone know what wheel and tire size are on this bike? Does it have a wider wheel in the back?

Need to know what size wheels and tires to order to achieve this exact look, thanks.

Also, did they lower the suspension travel on the forks?

SnoCrossRacer

That thing is bad ass.

There's your answer along with all the part numbers g-craft sells for that bike.

Wide triples. 3.5" front, 4.0" rear. Wide Swingarm. Frame bracket to account for the wide swingarm.

Above is your tire size.

Looks to me that the 30mm forks were shortened.

It's really a pretty easy build except for a couple of custom pieces.

Brad Reynolds built a similar front fairing for his ZB50. Talk to him.

Thanx Z.

and expensive. That tank alone would cost over $400 to import to the States.

EddieNewYork

I'm wanna go with this tank or I might just get my jincheng one painted solid blk.

That's a factory Honda tank.

You all do realize that you can purchase the tank graphics seperately and bring your own paint if you want to keep costs down, correct?

Start thinking about holding onto your 1979-1987 tanks, as the US tanks are about obsolete and going to get much more expensive really soon. Most colors are all gone with a dwindling supply of other colors.

There's always Clarke plastic tanks.Much less fragile and very reasonably priced.Not to mention lighter.

I was thinking of getting one of those "dime a dozen" ebay Lifan tanks painted with the Black/silver/red scheme as seen above, but those lifan tanks look a little different shaped then the Honda tanks, not by much but I notice a difference, unless it some sorta optical illusion caused by dollar signs...

Do a Clarke and be .

EddieNewYork

I wonder if the decal is under the clear coat.

supernes550

yes

EddieNewYork

Darn. Mine won't look real then.

EddieNewYork

Those clarke tanks are pricey: Clarke Manufacturing: Z-50 (79-8

supernes550

have the painter clear over the decals.

EddieNewYork

I would, but I read that decals shrink if not done correctly (I dun really know the whole story on that). Then there goes the clearcoat finish.

Beautiful bike... But don't ya think it's a bit "over braked"... Let's be totally honest, it's all about bling right?

The only difference between the G-craft bike brakes and a factory NSR50 is the G-craft bike has opposing piston caliper 2 pot brembos and the Brembos are cheaper then the OEM Honda Nissin calipers if companing new to new. The (Brembos) stop much better. I'm speaking of the calipers, not the rotors.

It is all about the look, but New OEM HRC NSR50 parts in many cases are more expensive then some of the aftermarket parts, even used. And you can also find those brembo 2 pot calipers used all day long and get new pads. That would happen to be the rear caliper application on a good amount of one certain italian bike manufacturer.
