Here is a new one for you guys.

I have not been on here a for a while. I sold all of my blasters and was just riding my bikes but I happened to stumble across this and thought it would be perfect for the wife.

Powered by a Honda cm200t twinstar motor. I call it the Blastar. No it's not fast but has enough torque to comfortably pull the hills. Not to mention it sounds and looks mean with those dual pipes.

Still have a bit of tuning to do. It does not idle. I need to mount the rear master cylinder to get the back breaks functioning and I gotta get some cleated pegs for it. As well as get rid of the ape hangers and other little things.
 
thats a pretty clean swap from what i can see, definately unique !!!!
 
I did put my bike down most of this weekend and enjoyed riding this bike. Powersliding this thing is a total blast. The suspension is beating me to hell though. I'm sure most of it is due to the extra weight. So I have a 400ex rear shock on the way. I'm gonna give the shee fronts a go as well. Hopefully those will help out tremendously.
 
Was able to do a little bit of work this weekend. Still spent most of the time riding. :p

I think I have the suspension tuned to my liking, at least the rear. The front will come another day.

Next thing on my list is to put the stock pegs on. Rework the exhaust and get the rear brake functioning.
 
Broke my foot a little over a month ago riding the kx. Luckily I have been able to get back on 4 wheels relatively quick but in doing so I knew that I had to get rid of those slippery rubber MC pegs. Plus I gotta get the rear brake functioning so my wife can ride it. So I got some stockers and had the exhaust redone going under the pegs. I'll eventually wrap them in a header wrap.
