    So the hard core bros give their ringleader crap? .. Not good, you need to fix that :p

    I thought the tape might look good on Darin's wheels, cuz he polished the centers and add just a bit of red to the mix. No crap from me.

    Kelly, thanx and totally forgot about the disc guards. In fact the black and red look good too! I do like the one that can be polished. I will get one as soon as I chase down all the rare 500 parts, promise. Those are bad! Your one two fiver will look really sharp in those colors! Iam 3hrs north of St Louis and would really like to ride a 165. Well have to hook up with jason in the future. I was lookin for an older 125 when I found the 500. Just going to be 165 delayed till next year. But still have the bike fever temp @ 165 degrees.

    Those would look sharp on the rims, good idea!

    Maybe Kelly can start doing graphics someday??????????? Hint!

    Nice work, I don't want to seem like a hater, but I think it would look better with a shiny pipe. That must have been fulfilling after you got it all back together. :clap

    Sorry for pimping my wears on your thread just thought the polished ones would look GREAT on that bike. I just ordered 10 sets of rim tapes from a local graphics shop. Should be fun.

    - I can't get the swingarm bolt out of my 125 or I would have it done now.

    I'm impressed but all that bling would be wasted on me... I usually wash my bike by riding lengthwise in the creek before I put it in the garage.

    That's okay. Them swing arm bolts are a pain since the bearings get rust welded to the bolt or forma ridge that won't let the bolt go thru the bushings.

    Thanx giant joe. I modded the stock pipe to change the powerband and burned off all the paint/seasoned it with heat and gear oil fo the natural look.

    This is a shot of it in the sun. All the photos that I posted dont really show the bike's truse colors, standing beside it.

    This is the 06 WR 125 that I did for my son last year and it still looks good.
