What else do you guys want to see on the project bike?
Levers?
Bars?
Tires?
Powder coat? what parts?
Anodized trim?
Let me know what you guys want! :)
-
me :)

Bars and tires would be cool. The one set of bars I have not seen people use(except on atv's) is Fasst Flexx bars. Apparently they are close to indestructible, and help with vibration/hard landings. The few videos of people using them on bikes love them.

becouse they are very expensive :P that's why :P
-
renthal intelilevers
stering dampner
pro taper or f3 fastway footpegs
-
Ditto, I knew that. Simply pointing them out, along with the motor I messaged to Charles.
-
Fork bleeders,vent hose spinner on gas cap vent hose.Though not blingy,I swear by both of them.
-
Good suggestions! I have a set of fork bleeders, and some IMS pro pegs. :) Boyesen is giving us a Rad Valve and other items.
-
The Faast bars are pretty neat, but they are super expensive, heavy, and only come with one set of elastomers, so if they are too stiff or too soft you gotta get an assortment when you order them, then fart around with them till you find the combonation of what you like. Just some red fat bars would be cool, with either red half waffles or Kevlar grips.
Radiator braces, glide plate, Ride Eng. stainless brake line kits, oversized front rotor, 260mm at least. Red hoses, red billet gas cap, and if you're not going to run barkbusters some type of folding levers, I like the ASV F3/shorty Pro clutch and brake levers, black on black.
-
I personally think gold wheels would look fantastic. Sort of that retro look also, although i am a fan of black.
-
Black wheels w/ red hubs have already been established. Cool idea though.
-
id like to see a dyno graph as well compared to a stock 125 if thatd be possible
-
if it were my bike I was making it setup for mx racing. Here are some goodies I would have. Also The reason I chose tag for alot of stuff I was just in a seminar with tag metals and found out how awesome their stuff is and the metals they use and thats coming from a renthal guy.
Tag xt-1 oversized braced handlebars yamaha bend
Applied factory triple clamps in red http://appliedrace.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=9&products_id=1258 (http://appliedrace.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=9&products_id=1258)
Tag sprockets front and rear (13/50 outdoors, 13,51 or 52 indoors)
Sunline SL4 clutch assembly with mdx lever
Red radiator hoses
billet aluminum gas cap red
red aluminum oil cap
P.s. its really hard to find trick parts for this bike lol
-
Ok well I think there will be quite a few polls coming with this many suggestions. :)
I have a set of black universal engineering clamps, with 7/8" bar mount. I'll have to pick up a big bar mount.
-
Id stick with the 7/8" bars...light weight with good flex. Every bit of weight you can save will help that 125 alot.
I wouldnt be as concerned with the durability of the bars more than the weight, with those clamps the front end should stay straight in a crash. Ive always ran 7/8" bars, even on my 450.
Just my opinion. Looking good
-
A Red Ano 7/8" Renthal bar with Black ASV levers would look good. :)
-
Agreed.As for bar size,I've had the 1" with no crossbar and the standard 7/8.I know some have a preference but I've honestly never seen any real difference as I've managed to bend both :( :D
-
My main prefference for the fat bars is due the lack of a crossbar, I've taken a wacking or two in the face from the cross bar on Renthals, I also noticed that renthals increase my armpump, but I'm not riding the Project YZ144 so use your best judgement.
-
I don't think arm pump will be too much of a factor. I would go with the best deal, crossbar or no crossbar.
-
i will go for the fatbar,it looks better :D
-

Agreed. Arm pump is usually caused by the bend of the bar or being out of shape.

or gripping to hard
-
Or riding a KX250 in the tight south eastern woods :P
I get it within the first 10 miles, regardless of training, or warm up routine. Once I stop and stretch my forearm muscles and tendons by holding my arm out straight, palm out, fingers up, and pulling back on my fingers it goes away with in a minute and I don't get it again.
It is the action of blood filling the muscles to capacity resulting in pain and the temporary ability to properly control said muscles. Also known in medical terms as Hyper permeation,
-
I get it in my fingers almost every race. I start out the race with only one finger on the clutch but end with two :p
-
im a little late on this discussion but id say to let the bars be decided on by whoever will be racing the bike so theyll have something they like and are used to
