Posted: Thu Oct 21, 2010 3:52 pm Post subject: My LC Hybrid Project |
|
|
Well here we go again another project, big bike this time, well biggest I own, can’t even ride it till October 6th 2012 when my restricted licence gets lifted and I can have more than a whopping 33bhp.
Number one, take one 31k remove engine, sell the rest of the parts to pay for a 4LO rolling chassis.
0.5 Over sized so plenty more life left, no gaskets just sealant, so it was great fun stripping it down stuffs like bloody super glue.
Non tuned/butchered so these will be off to Mick Abbey for some fettling
A very low sitting fiesta, but why?
Oh, that would be why
Might just buy a new wiring loom
Loosely together
Who needs centre stand lugs anyway?
KR1S Front End to replace the 125 USD’d that are fitted
TZR125 4DL Rad
That’s all for now, hope to get the KR1S front end in next week, getting a 3MA swing arm next week as well so I’ll start the long process of getting that all jigged up in the frame ready for the new shock mounts.

Changed a bit today, got the KR1s front end, just need to machine a spacer for the stem then thats done. Measured up nearly everything for the 3MA swingarm aswell but to be sure ive orderd a 300mm set of vernier calipers, then its off to the milling machine for some butchery |
