AndyGal Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Window bars to de lengthen it mexicant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Yeah a change of bars would do wonders for the proportions and also handling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTERUS Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 It really is rather lovely to ride, although window bars would lol me into the next dimension. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 On my 50 I've gone from flat bars to windows ad then to pull backs and they all have improved the handling of the bike. Give it a try and see what ya reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm stoked with the 4.00, I actually quite glad I didn't go with a Firestone. I don't think a 4.50 would fit that well. As for bars, there are a few things I am going to change, like pegs and exhaust mounts. Once that is done I will mess with some bars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKtrips Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Not my bike and I think that tyre and guard have made the bike like 3.147 times better but leave the bars (I kinda like the slammed out lo-pro look of them) But please remake the seat and ditch the red - the back third of a skateboard would be perfect IMO. Once again it's your bike so you should do what you want but I am very excited with this latest transformation you have made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelies Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 awesome. yeh not sure about putting choppery parts on a bobbery bike, one or the other. like a visor on a salt racer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Yeah the Firestone 4.50 would have been a bit to big mate. Good choice. Sounds like your heading in the right direction there Your bike for sure, but you will be mind blown on how much bars will change the experience. Salt lake racers are sweet when your tucked like that for a few minutes a day for one week a year when your at the flats. Everywhere else its bloody uncomfortable and hard to ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Testament Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 making the exhaust so it doesnt fall off will help 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnrusty Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Looking good man, I dont mind your seat, just think there too much gap between the bottom of it and the frame/ close the gap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 I made the mounts for the new guard on tuesday night, primed it last night, and painted it at lunch time today. Pretty stoked with the paint finish, this is straight off the gun. Lol, i'm not sure what is worse, out of focus, or too dark, you decide. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
