    The fun ones do. I couldn't pass up the deal on my bike. I would've had to order the SM. Plus i wasn't sure i could handle switching back and forth from street to dirt wheels every other week lol

    WELP.....looks like i get to take another break from riding. Got a flat tire when i left work today. Rode over to the closest gas station, filled it up and rode it home.

    For the time being, i'll probably just slap a tube in it.

    HOWEVER, i'm looking for options in the 70/30 or 80/20 style tire. I want dirt performance with something that won't vibrate me to death or dip out on me in the corneres on the road. Any help is appreciated.

    I mean, technically this isn't really a build thread yet.

    Until..

    Wat?
    What about it makes it "not" a build thread? I said it is, and so it is.

    Don't forget an MRD pipe to go with that big bore and carb.

    I'd do the pipe first. Pipe alone will keep it pulling all the way to the limiter.

    Carb and big bore pretty much have to be done together. Whole new bike after that!

    Also, you may already know this but the swing arm bolt is like the cam bolts on our tacomas.

    It WILL corrode.

    You can drift it out with another or something of similar size and smear it with grease or anti seize or something.

    I'm indecided on an exhaust. I want louder than stock but not obnoxious. I want to still be somewhat quiet in the woods.

    MRD would be nice but i don't know if the optional silencer would be enough to quiet it down

    These actually look like a killer deal. And way better than my bridgestone deathwings. This is what i'm after, just need to find them in my sizes.
