Screw sticker kits! A bikes a bike, who cares what it looks like..
Its just gonna get ****ed anyway.
Is it completely stock? If you still have the stocko licorice bars on, ditch em and get a set of quality double wall bars.

[[TOPGEAR]]

no its not just gonna get ****ed if u look after it.

ive had sticker kits on my 125 and 250. it makes it look heaps better and it doesnt get ****ed or scratch off. sticker kit fabric is like 10 times thicker than the normal stock graphics.

i cant see what bars u got on it. if they are stock get urself some pro taper bars or something.

get a custom sticker kit if u can design a good one, bikes stand out more if u got a sticker kit no ones ever seen before.

also get a gripper seat cover, it will help u stay on the bike better. i got mine for $75

black side panels & black rear mudguard.

if u got more money, get a header pipe and muffler

[[TOPGEAR]]

tank graphics will bubble unless they have the little holes in them, this is another reason why stock graphics are shit.


eg.

[fmx_freak]

rip the front white sticker of the number plate they look heaps sicker blue i rekon

[[TOPGEAR]]

here ya go. i dont think ringmaster would make these for u but u could try a screen printing place or something.

[[TOPGEAR]]

hey, i got ur pm before. u asked about the graphics and the seat cover.

here is the 4 stroke version of my graphics i got on my yz. i think the seat cover looks shit on this, thats why i got a full gripper one.

[mick79]

that job you did on on my bike is amazing thats un eal wait till i show my mates that as for the graphics above there ok but im not sold i found some graphics the other day if i put them here on this thread can you put them on my bike again but i lovet the black seat and the black mud gard so dont change that ill be back ina jiffy
cheers mick

[[TOPGEAR]]

yeh i know, i like it when they got the back half black (Seat,side panels & mudgaurd)

i had it on my kx125

[The Snitz]

Hey mate, just to give you an idea, here's my 04 yz250f, $120 of back fender and side plates in black, chop front and rear fender and grab holes, and look at how good it comes up :D
I personally don't want to change my graphics, I think it looks awesome just how it is, just like your graphics are good condition, I say keep them on until they scratch off over time, go for set of bars, maybe rims, and just pipe mods.
Anyway, just a look for you anyway have a good one
Steve:afro:

[[TOPGEAR]]

:D

[mick79]

dam your good and quick i found wot iwas looking for these are off an old thread someone called mungoman45 ill ask him if could use them do ya think you could try this with the first pic you did for me with the black seat and guards cheers man i guess ill have to buy you a beer hey 11111111111111

[yamaha_54]

get a Power Now valve, its supposed 2 give 4strokes more snap out of corners and its only about $160. also a decent set of tapered bars. and get the suspension gold valved and set up 4 your weight. i think ur better off getting bars and suspension good before u start on the engine

[mick79]

wot does gold valved do sorry im a gumby

[The Snitz]

This power Now valve, your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter lol.

Whats the go with that? I've never heard of it, then again, I haven't been in the 4stroke world for long, long enough to know they jump 80 foot nicely, not how fast they can get :)

[mick79]

hey steve have you got the YZ or the CRF

[mick79]

dont worry steve i just relised that was your bike before thanks for the help cheers man

[yamaha_54]

gold valves just sorta make the suspension smoother, not completely sure how but its 2 hard 2 explain properly but their good, exept on a crf250 they come with better valves that the gold valves, u just need 2 get them shimed properly.


the power now, i was in at the bike shop 2day with a mate asking about this. it bolts on 2 the carby and improves snap from idle and pulls harder up to mid throttle, reduces stalling when though tight tracks, you can pull a gear higher out of turns or in slow sections. it works best on 4strokes specialy ktm because the are known 4 having a flat spot in the power. u can also get the 4 2strokes but theres no point, they do **** all

[yamaha_54]

power now...

[mick79]

sweet might have a look at it when ive done a few cosmetic things

[Blue Haze]

Hey Yamaha 54 do you know how much those power now thingies are?

Hey Mick79 go the black rear side panels and black rear guard its looks sweet, me and Steve have both done it :D here is my bike.

[[TOPGEAR]]

all steve needs is a black seat to finish it off :)

NEVER!!!!

Haha, I was going to shave my seat and put black gripper cover on, but when it all comes down to it, the seat is absolutely perfect where it is for grabs and the seat cover is awesome (did take a while to get used to ripping the inside of my legs since i dont' wear proper riding pants) but the Black/Blue of the seat works well with the black/blue of the overall bike I feel (AND I don't have to pay over $100 for seat cover haha)

[[TOPGEAR]]

i got mine for $60. its a ringmaster one.

[The Snitz]

Innnnteresting theory you have there! Better than N-Style that my local bloke could get for $125, and that was cheapest that he could find from his dealers.

[[TOPGEAR]]

haha. $125 for a plain black gripper seat cover :D

[The Snitz]

Yeeep! Hence why I didn't buy it lol

Anyway, onward with peoples help for mick :)

um i there only about $170 i think. DSP makes them, there could be others but iv only seen DSP ones.

[mick79]

ok people thax to everyone who helped on my bike im definetly getting the black plastics thanks to top gears first pictuer im gonna try everything possible to get those graphics like mungomans45 (still gotta ask him) and im gonna get some of those pro tapper bars and snitz i rekon your bike looks shit hot the way it is so dont touch it oh dont stop the ideas i wanna kick my mates arse who has decied to do his bike as well now!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mungoman45]

You may use my graphics as a concept for your own. You cannot use the M logo on the top of the shroud as it is the Mungo Industries Logo. I say, "concept" because my graphics are custom designed to fit my 01 250, and will not comfortably fit your bike, so you'd need to change them in some way anyways tomould around your tank/shrouds, so yes, by all means, go nuts, but just remove the M logo. Throw your own personilsed logo in there to make it yours, or just design the flame to fold over the top of the shroud.
Since your going the black plastics, I'll throw a pic of my bike with Black plastics to give ya an idea of how they would look ;).

[mick79]

cheers brad any now i know you designed these graphics by your self now the question is how the hell do i get them done do you have an old template you could send me

[[TOPGEAR]]

hey is that the one i done of your bike ages ago ???

i remember doing a black one of your bike but i cant remember if that was it.

[mick79]

yeah i ve taliking to ya through the pm i figure you just could nt rember the thread it kick arse tg iv showed all my mates and they rekon there gonna see how mine turn s out then do theres dammm copy cats!!!!!!!!!!!

[mick79]

oh hang on were you talking to me or brad doh!

[Mungoman45]

If you were talking to me Mick, no, that edit is one i did a while ago. And yes, i do have a hardcopy template of those, and the place that printed them have a digital copy, but as i said, they wont do you any good, because they are moulded around the 01 250 Yamaha shroud/tank, therefor will not fit your bike. You will need to redesign them to fit around your shroud/tank, hence why i said, you could use em as a concept...something to go off.

[[TOPGEAR]]

post them up here anyway, because they will fit mine :)

[Mungoman45]

Um, no. I'm not releasing custom made graphics to the general public for free.

[[TOPGEAR]]

ok, how about releasing them to me for free ? no one else lol.

its not as if im gonna use them anyway, just wanna have some fun in photoshop.

[Mungoman45]

Fun can be had with the pics available. there is no need for complete scaled templates.
