Buying a tt-r125L tomorrow what should I change?

What are some stuff I should do to the bike right away?
Any good websites to purchase stuff for the ttr?
pegs, sprockets, tires, etc....

Thanks

2001 tt-r 125L for $1000.00 is that a good price.

that is one of the BEST training aids in my oppinion. I learned on a XR100 and went straight from practicing on that for 6 months to being able to put my buddies f4i on the 12 bar and do 1 foot sitdowns in about 10 min of riding it.

yeah just find a peg (the right size) and instead of buying some street tires just lean your bike to the side and burn the tires down

Stock bars bend easy, you don't need street tires unless you have nothing but street to ride on......learn everything in the dirt, and it'll be ten times easier once you do try it on the street.

I was doing real hard debate on buying it or not. I am now most likely going to buy it tomorrow. Glad to know I can bust my *** with people around my area and hopefully get some pointers once I get it

I rocked a Z400 then tried the F4i and crashed the **** outta it, a quad just doesnt teach you the body language it takes to keep the bike straight up and down, but they are great for learnign brake control.

Re: Buying a tt-r125L tomorrow what should I change?

screw dirt tires.. i get my circles so fast and tight that i wash out on street tires sometimes.

i love having a peg on mine.. more tricks.. why not? its a 5 dollar mod. i think its easier to learn stand up circles then sitdowns. atleast thats how i learned.
