supermoto build?

thenasty562 · 10-27-2009, 06:07 PM

hey guys ive been really into supermotos lately and am thinking of getting a crf450 to stunt with.
is making a supermoto as easy as putting street tires on a dirtbike or is there more to it than that? and if so what is it?

Lights, guages, brakes, suspension, tires...

thenasty562 · 10-28-2009, 07:08 PM

i understand lights, guages, and tires but when you say suspension and brakes do you just mean stiffer suspension and bigger/better brakes?

ed275 · 10-28-2009, 08:02 PM

Bam! done deal... http://www.motostrano.com/sucokistle.html

thenasty562 · 10-28-2009, 09:23 PM

oh shit thanks man good looking out

ed275 · 10-28-2009, 09:24 PM

Check out this one too, some stuff is cheaper http://epicmotosports.com/supermoto.aspx

thenasty562 · 10-29-2009, 09:44 AM

you are on point with the supermoto stuff
now which one whould you recomend?

ed275 · 10-29-2009, 01:37 PM

I havent ordered from either yet, but I will be soon. I noticed that epic has WAY cheaper shipping. I plan on getting the big stuff from epic and the stuff I cant get from them I'll get from motostrano. Motostrano def has a bigger selection though. But I think their may be more sites for CRFs like crfsonly.com I am going to be building a kxf250, if my trade goes through.

thenasty562 · 10-30-2009, 05:07 AM

well good luck with the trade
but to be honest i'm not really sure what i want i said honda just cause i've had honda bikes before and feel comfortable with them but if i find a really good price on something else i'll jump on it

StrictlyStunt · 10-30-2009, 05:11 AM

bah dont need lights... maybe a acerbis headlight...

Fuck signals & gauges. Get a motocrosser and throw some rims/tires on it

StrictlyStunt · 10-30-2009, 05:12 AM

50stunt.com has stuff on his site now for supermoto

ed275 · 10-30-2009, 10:58 AM

Ya check your states laws about bike requirements to make em street legal. My current state (alabama) just requires night time lights and I think a mirror.

drewbeckleyz · 10-30-2009, 10:35 PM

dont go with motostrano they take forever to ship out wheels and they forgot my spacers...

ed275 · 10-30-2009, 11:57 PM

Ya I figured epic would be better, especially since motostrano's shipping is waaaaay too high

Peter Steele · 10-31-2009, 03:38 AM

See ryan moor for the crf parts. his 50stunt website has all the shit for the Honda CRF range

ed275 · 10-31-2009, 12:39 PM

Anyone have any opinions on what rims to buy? I dont have a lot of dough so I was thinking either DNA or warp 9

MotaredStunts · 10-31-2009, 03:36 PM

If you build a kxf250 you will need the a big sprocket and a lighting coil with a cooling fan hooked up to it. A flywheel weight is nice and you will want passenger pegs even if it means building a subframe. I have a a supermoto stunt bike built out of an rmz250 05. Im about to build a 450

MotaredStunts · 10-31-2009, 03:38 PM

And I have warp 9s on mine its the way to go cause you dont cry as much the first time you scratch the shit out of them trying to do circle wheelies. but they come with a nice rotor and the caliper bracket
