I know, I know...I'm a squid...but this little thing is fun!









I can't quite hold the wheelie for much long, but I'm thinking that'll change with practice and possibly BMX pegs.

Nice ride. Is it a 2 stroke?

I got all excited about mine and put an hour of labor into it last night. Also ordered the parts necessary to convert it to a CDI style ignition system instead of the points it came with.

Got the engine out of the frame, head and cylinder off. Just gotta swap over the piston and toss the head and cylinder onto the new '96 engine bottom end I picked up. Should have everything done by the weekend!

now ya got me excited to rebuild my go-ped..... of course more power wouldn't be a good idea w/o any brakes

no, the xr is actually a 4 stroke...so it's a little harder to get rev happy on it

iglu...get yours going...it's a slow bike but still fun for hooliganism

I bet it would go decent with a 130lb guy on it!

That thing is dangerous, I'd look into handling mods, like a steering damper, before I started adding more power to that thing.

haha, so am I...so what you see is what it can do

any idea how to put pegs on the rear axle?

[TheIglu]

Weld them!

Or tap the pegs out to the same thread as your axle nuts and just screw them on.

More hooliganism

Dude looks good but you need to get that foot back on the brake pegand cover that rear brake STAT.

Mine runs!

Got the new bottom end in and running today. First time I've heard this bike spin. Runs pretty tight but without the proper fuel line I could only have it run until the bowl was dry. Still needs some work, probably timing and fuel mixture. It's a start!

Just need some fuel line....already bought new steering head bearings for my new front forks that are waiting downstairs.

I still should get a rear wheel, this one is missing about half the spokes.
