I've been wanting to do this for a while now. I have this sweetass G-craft frame that is too nice for anymore dirt use and a great front end and wanted to build something for street as well as roadracing. The Fast50's forks and Douglass billet wheels on my other Z just were'nt allowing me to run the rubber that I'd like on the track. I thought of converting to twin shock for a more conventional Z look but I figured thats kind of pointless and not worth the effort. So I'm considering something like this setup. It looks alittle goofy from behind right now but an under the seat exhaust will change the look a bit.

My other option is an 80's style tank with a G-craft seat. I'm hoping my good buddy Tim aka dirtbkr188 can do some of his magic photoshop and make the seat and rear cowl black for me.

Let me know what yall think...

Looks pretty slow to me. Hope you have some good running shoes to push it with. JK. What are you doing for the motor?

sweet unique build. Who makes the swinger and is it a +4?

Maybe if you paint the headlight with white Krylon Fusion plastic paint and keep the eyeliner around the eyes black, it might look more the part. oh and a white front fender (or use the Fusion paint for that too)

Swingers a Down Components +4. Not sure if that's staying though. Possibly G-craft.

BlackBeard · 05-19-2008, 12:41 AM

you want to trade that +4 for a bbr superpro +3?

shw911 · 05-19-2008, 12:55 AM

or let me know if you're going to sell it outright.

BlackBeard · 05-19-2008, 01:09 AM

lol enough about the headlight nice build MC!

arlindsay1992 · 05-19-2008, 08:14 AM

I think it looks good except for colors. I think The light and front fender would look better in white. How hard was it to put the Z body on the CRF frame? Or is it just sitting on there now?

Portland · 05-19-2008, 08:34 AM

I think it looks sweet, and i like the headlight. I have the same headlight.

tt-r420 · 05-19-2008, 09:04 AM

Sweet. The performance we've come to know from the CRF50, and the ass padding of a Z. Dosent get much better than that!
