Looks like you put some hardwork into that thing, it looks real clean now. I don't really have a supermoto bike but I have a fiddy with street tires on it if that counts :LOL |

Then has sooo much engin brakeing and torque its a bit on the sensitive side, stuff in 2nds better but just having issues trying to lean her back my drum brake just dosnt cut it and i am still makeing the mech for the rear disk brake for the supermoto wheels. |
Re: Show us yo ride!! [QUOTE=evilbob]hows your Xr500 for stunting??? [/QUOTE] It's not bad. It's 21 years old, so there are some "problems" with it. The drum in the back keeps me from really pushing the envelope, so I've got to balance a lot more than with a normal disc brake. The power is good. I can stand it right up in first from a dead stop no problem. Second is a little harder, but it'll come up. Third is outta the question. I live at 10,500ft and at this elevation, the bike has no power on the top end. I've riden it at sea level and I could do stand ups in third with no clutch and fourth with clutch. But up here... it's starving for air. Let's see some pics of the KX pullin wheelies! -Drew |
Re: Show us yo ride!! Drum brakes work great. My 76 XR75s front brake (drums)works better than the discs on my KX125s. And I can scrape tail on my Xr100 and Ive seen it done a on CRF150s, all drumies. |

Talk to us when you're trying to stop an 81 xr500 with them drum brakes.[/QUOTE] Yeah... it's a little heavier than a 125! But the drums are actually working pretty good for me. I've started scrappin the plate and the drum has no problem bringing me back down on 2 wheels. |
Re: Show us yo ride!! Big :YEAH to your skills man, wicked i must try harder lol klr is allot less power than an xr :banghead On a side note, that looks like a kick ass bit of road as well :fiddy |
Re: Show us yo ride!! I'm totally new to the whole super motard scene, so to clear some things up for me you buy say a 4 stroke dirtbike, put some street tires on it, a headlight and tailight kit, turnsignals etc...and its street legal? If this is the case I gotta get one. |

Re: Show us yo ride!! This was my Husky. I sold it to get a WR for supermoto. [IMG]http://images.snapfish.com/33%3B7%3B79523232%7Ffp63%3Dot%3E2326%3D799%3D%3A76%3DXROQDF%3E23235%3C8426279ot1lsi[/IMG] Sold the WR. Just wasn't riding much. Supermoto bikes are a kick in the ass on the street. So much fun. |

Re: Show us yo ride!! N2Bikes - How does the 2 stroke work out for you? Do you use it as a daily driver? I imagine the premix would inhibit long runs. |
Re: Show us yo ride!! I just converted it havent had time to dd with it. I plan on just carrying a bottle of premix enough for a tank full of gas and mix :fiddy rob |
