Recommendations on the best way to prevent a small seat cover tear from spreading larger? I know once a tear has started, the chance is always there for it to get worse... but like a rust spot, gotta stop the cancer from spreading. Curious to hear how others approach this issue..
The Shop
Any questions let me know
Yea the rear shock is like a pogo stick! lol.. Makes wheelies scary easy haha... I've been doing my homework and will be rebuilding it myself with either genuine KYB parts or a Pivot Works kit.
He put the graphics and everything on. I just cleaned up what was there. I did no painting. I wanted to pull it down to the frame and really go wild making it perfect.
When i was checking it out he kept going on and on about how fast it was, he said he had some local tuner do some motor work to it and kept it freshened up etc.
I did ride it briefly and it did run really well.
I don't have a ton of info for you honestly. That was a while back also. I reconized the skid plate and red grips and not too many 96s running around like that anymore.
It went from being a 1 owner bike to a 4 owner bike it looks like in a matter of a couple years but im guessing myself and the guy you got it from just didnt ride it.
Motor work huh??? Yea, I totally believe it.. Wonder if it's just port n polish or what.. So far ive only ridden it up and down my street once, but did have it in 4th gear pinned and yup, shes a screamer! Did you dent the pipe or did the previous owner haha
No wear and tear from me
In the middle of this thread I posted a picture of the CR next to one of my Honda Cubs.... I have plans to do a custom Cub; if I sent you guys a complete Cub seat, could you help me with something custom??
Yea he had the bike listed for $1500 or trade. Sounds like he had the same good intentions for the bike as you did.
