What does this have to do with Men in Black?

. Nice bike, that looks like my ideal 250, I'd love to do some of those mods when I finally get one, blue ftw!

Looks good.. reminds me to bump a thread.

DEXSPEED · March 31st, 2011, 01:06 PM

you might want to consider a fork pre-load adjuster by ssr from sportisi(matt)to complete the 600cc look!

Nice bike. A great price considering all the mods it's had done to it. x-)

I don't think he's selling it. Just posted what he paid for it at the dealer.

Thats what I meant lol. As in he got it for a great price. Although its used, with all those mods he got it for a good price.

I'm fairly certain it was stock when he bought it for that price and then he added all the mods

Great lookin' bike!! Can't wait to see what else you do to it!

That would make sense... x-( Lol. Dont mind me anyone im just a n00b really. lol

Scarmack · April 1st, 2011, 05:19 AM

The bike was 100% brand new and 100% stock when I bought it. I currently have about $1800 in aftermarket parts for it. I have a few more things on my list to complete the build. Should be interesting.

Updated first post with price of all the parts

Sean your bike is freaking radical looking. I'm pretty jealous lol. I really really like the blue/black theme.

Looking good

CZroe · April 1st, 2011, 12:14 PM

We seem to have the same blue chain. FYI, mine is suddenly getting more and more loose over time. Keep a close eye on yours. I've pretty much reached the limit of how far I can tighten it and I hear it slapping again.

Where did you order yours? Mine came from some snowmobile dealer on eBay but it looks identical to the one on D2moto.com. It's probably not quite a year old but with almost 9K miles on it.

Some ebay dealer hahahha. It was cheap, what more can you ask for? Looks good though

I agree!

Link to original page on YouTube.

You can see that I used a rivet link instead of the blue clip-type that came with it. It does make cleaning and lubing easier so I can count the revolutions.

I'd like to see your blue sprocket up close!

Scarmack · April 1st, 2011, 01:08 PM

Those wheels are soooooooo sexy! I wanted to do that also but decided against it. Seeing that vid gives me the itch to do it again.

It was more of a case where I had to buy new rims anyway after a pothole dented my front. Six months later, a busted up barricade in the middle of the freeway cut a deep gouge in the front rim and dented my new rear.

Link to original page on YouTube.

They still balanced and the dent wasn't nearly as bad as before, so I'm sticking with it.
