We've got a "List Your Mods" thread going, that this might fit in as well.

Nice looking 250R. You're going all out on that.

gt_turbo · September 13th, 2011, 07:02 PM

cool engine mods. interested in seeing what you put down on the dyno.

lv250 · September 18th, 2011, 02:38 PM

Here is a picture showing the exhaust.

choneofakind · September 18th, 2011, 04:07 PM

is that exhaust a full system or a slip-on?

what tires are you planning on getting?

lv250 · September 18th, 2011, 04:38 PM

Is a Slip on.

As for the Tires I am not sure exactly yet.
Since I first want to buy the big rear rim from 3.5" wide to 4.5" wide. Once that is done I will swap to a tire.
Unless I shred up and need to buy sooner.

Do you have specific brand to suggest? I am looking for a sport touring tire.

Looking forward to seeing more pics... sounds like you are off to a pretty good start!

I love my Bridgestone BT-45 tires. They have a good mix of mileage/performance and feel like glue through turns. for a more sport/race tire, some people have had good luck with BT-016 tires. There's a lot of threads devoted to tires on here though so I'll let you read what everyone else has to say

If you want the 4.5 rear wheel, go for it. It looks sick and allows you to run a 150 with no pinching, but that's a lot of money just for the wide look. Personally, when I get a new-gen after I graduate, I would like to get the 4.5 rear wheel specifically so I can run a BT-016 Radial rear tire without it pinching because the smallest radials seem to be 150's, unless you're willing to run a front tire on the back (which they aren't designed for)
