The "Z" you have been waiting to see !!

Well guys I've always been a fan of minibikes. I never thought I would buy a 50 until all of my friends started getting them. I rode...make that looped my friends xr50 and I was hooked. The only problem with it was it was just so damn uncomfy and tiny. The seat, if thats what you call it, just wouldn't do. What would I do to satisfy my need for a 50? Easy, find a ultra clean 98 or 99 fat seat Z50 and pimp it out.

I picked this bike up from a guy in Champaign Illinois who bought it new for his kid. He ran it around the yard 3 times and decided he didn't like it so it sat under a cover in the garage for 4 years. Not a scratch. I bought it for $700 and started looking for aftermarket parts.

My mods

Fast 50's triple tree bar clamp
GT chrome BMX handlebars
Oury Red Handgrips
Honda Racing handlebar pad
Gearworks front springs
Chromoly front fork lowers
Sano Nylon Bushings
Kitako 280mm adjustable chrome rear shocks
Anodized aluminum skidplate
Rickey Stator (stator) I have headlight and taillight (A MUST)
Uni Air Filter
88cc kitaco big bore kit
Fast 50's Anodized Cam Cover
Red anodized billet gas vent cap


On The way --- (The last things I will purchase)

Magnetic Drain Plug
New rear sprocket down 2 teeth to 35
Red Baron Folding Shifter


The most important mods to me are the headlight and suspension mods. Besides stunting I love riding the trails especially at night. My bike must be comfortable as its #1 priority.
Night riding without a headlight is dangerous.

This bike with the 88cc kit is so easy to wheelie it is rediculous. The suspension is a dream and I plan on keeping this cool toy for some time.

I'm tired of all these XR/CRF's . It ain't nothin but a Z thang...

If I get my sprocket in time this is the bike that will win the second Cannonball Run here in Chicago tommorrow.

Here you go

Those are the nicest plastics. They are in such good shape.
Reload Once you are a tard.
How bright is that headlight?
Where did you get that barpad? I am loving it.
Give me the link to where you got that stator to power the lights.

The headlight is 55 watts the same as a normal car headlight...unbelievably bright.

The bar pad I got from a honda dealer

The stator can be had for $100 and the voltage regulator is $20.


The voltage regulator powers up to 100W of lights.
