I'm new here and decided I'd start a thread since I'm kind of changing my bike quite a bit from stock. I used to have build threads when I was modifying cars so decided I'd do the same over here. This isn't really as cool a project as what else i'm seeing where people are rebuilding old bikes and doing a lot of custom work but it's my bike and I'm trying to see how good of a woods machine I can build. I thought about the new 300 tpi for a bit before pulling the trigger on the XCF and ultimately just decided to buy used and use the extra money on parts.

So here's what the bike looked like when I bought it. Really in great shape.





I'll post some more pictures here in a moment of how it's transitioned and what's to come.

Kind of looks like a toy. Going to order new graphics and plastics again here.


Rival Ink is a good company if you're thinking about getting graphics. I'm having them do another set for me and just going with their out of the box black/gray with orange black plastics.

Got the Ohlins today and took em over to KFG motorsports in Auburn, Washington. Really good group of guys who understand Ohlins to the nth degree. Had everything in stock. They're going to go through them and rebuild and revalve fork and shock for trail.
