well...
i have a somewhat legit MX race ready bike.
Motor mods
STICKERS
suspension
excel wheels
handlebars
now the stuff im missing is:
Tires with tread on them
Seat cover is yet to be installed (gripper)
carbon fiber frame guards(should be here tommorow)
numbers on the side and in the front
RIDER EXPERIENCE ( still a r00k)
but i got this graphics kit on eGay for 50 bucks. and it comes with the seat cover , so i bought it and installed it tonight. was a bitch to line up the decals but overall came out pretty nice , really covered the scratched to shit plastics that were underneath.

Nice. YZF450?
Mike's YZ250 also has gold excel rims but with black plastics. He just ordered sprockets and a gold x-ring chain. I've got one more week and I'm ordering the black plastics, monster graphics, and seat cover kit. :thumbup:
i dont have too many engine mods. I've got renthal bars, vortex sprockets 2 teeth up from stock, rc power valve, and an fmf gnarly expansion chamber with a turbine core 2 silencer.
your bike looks badass! I'll try to get some pics of my bike in action today.

is it an N-Style gripper seat? just like the graphics? if so, those things are really comfy/practical. my dad had one on his bike for awhile. either N-Style or ONE ind. also makes radiator shrouds that have texture to them so under heavy braking, when you put yourself forward on the bike, your knees dont slip. Smart guys those graphics guys are.

yea rims fade but honestly nobody will ever notice. Besides hopefully your not going to be stopped bragging about how your rims look. When your on the throttle who cares what your rims look like lol
