ICEMAN Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) I just meant assembling them, both bikes have their forks assembled and not much else.the 80 is 3/4 done. just the radiator and rear end is left (couple hours). waaaaaaaaay too much left on the ninja.its just as easy to put forks on as it is the handlebars, and i need them on first so i can get it rollin.

ICEMAN Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Now you gots to buy another suit! Get it!!now that i wont be going 160+, im not worried about a VERY good suit, which ends up being expensive. what are rules for racing these things for gear? just so i get whats needed for racing, so i dont have to worry about buying in the future if need-be.ive got textile pants and a textile jacket that have the 8" zipper that zip 2gether. which ill use up here at the lil go kart track.

yotaman88210 Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Dude you want a nice leather one piece suit. Crashing happens a lot even on go kart tracks. Im not sure if you would be allowed to race without one piece leathers. You also need some decent boots and full gauntlet gloves. You can get a decent suit for under 600 bones. Check the wera forum for used suits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICEMAN Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 also, is there a circlip holding the front sprocket on on your 85? i went to put the sprocket on last night and realized i have the 2 lil bolts and the plate that bolts to the sprocket and the sprocket. but what holds the sprocket on? im guessing im missing a circlip or something. or is there nothing?
