Upgrades on the cheapšŸ˜

Recommended Posts

Recovering from a major operation so got a bit of time on my handsĀ and no money.

Been playing around with the T7 a bit and fitted small indicators fromĀ my Beta 300rr (Never used)Ā 

cobbled up a home made tail tidy out of an old alloy Mx number plate.Got hold of a crf chain guide from ebay and fitted using 6 mm alloy angle.

removed plastic guard from right hand side,behind side panel and re-routedĀ wiring to allow for easy spark plug access.

Just in the process of having a sump guard fabricated by a good friend,not finished yet but weā€™ll on the way.

Next on the list will be tyres,when funds allow.

May Ā not be to everyoneā€™s taste or standards but so far these mods have cost me just over Ā£10 and when Iā€™ve recovered enough to ride the bike will be hammered around the Welsh trails anywayāœŠšŸ˜†šŸ

Looking good. Where did you source the decal kit? It looks great, especially liking the "Mudlife Crisis". šŸ™‚

Crispy designs did the graphics,very good quality and service.

The ā€œMudlife Crisisā€ is my part time guide business.

Good job on the sump guard!

Yep very pleased so far,if you look close itā€™s got a little kicker at the back to protect linkage and it also has an extra mount at the rear.just needs a few vent holes and a bit of finishing now.

that is some nice welds you got there for the sump guard!

Ā 

i can see some slots cut into the guard for air/drainage but it is always easier to cut then add...
