Hahaha the broken guard was just a stunting incident it snaped form flexing to much coming down hard from wheelies lol

I didnt put the wheel axle through properly then when i when to test it the collers slipped out and the wheel well wasnt quite in place lol
but once i readusted it it was fine

The rim is off a cbr250rr.

Was very simple really i just bought the collers of a cbr 250 rr and put it on. The only problem was it needed a little bit of a sand in the forks because the disk rubed by like a mm but its perfect now :D

Just sorted some lines for next week 70$ for 2m with fittings. then on goes the gsxr 750 front master and the cbr 250 rr calipers

Id just like to update this incase any one who is as stupid as me decides this is a good idea.

Thanks to Ben ( extream Creations ) i discovered 6 weeks after putting the rim on that the axel for the vtr is only 15 mm where as the cbr250rr wheel has a 20mm hole

woops

So my suggestion to anyone who wants to try this out get some spacers made up before u kill yourself!!

Keep modifying your bike DICKHEAD, especially the brakes.... then natural selection should take care of you.
You can't even put a wheel on the right way around... proof you don't need big shoes to be a CLOWN :(

& make sure that when u build a real streetfighter that the "big bore" sticker go`s on the bike even b4 Hallie get the block:D

hahaha, you guys are so mean, its quite funny really..

31-05-2007, 06:31 PM

yeah i like old fat haters it makes me laugh :)

I rode it for 6 weeks even did stoppies on it didnt notice till after i change the wheel round the right way sort of shifted under brakes .. still rode it like that for 2 days

And as for natural selection if u know what your bike is going to do sure its not safe but as long as u can control it its alright

ive rode my bike home from many crashes in various states and got it home ok just ride to the conditons ;)

31-05-2007, 07:25 PM

NO it ain`t stoopid[:I]Do you find it easy to breathe at the moment[?]

:D:D:D:Di agree;)

As for not noticing the 20mm holes verses 15mm axle and as for knowing what your bike is going to do[:I] you cant have much feel for your bike if the front wheel was flopping around like that as it would have been and not felt it[:o)]:D

hmm, well if you keep the front wheel off the ground you won't notice [:p]

i doubt he rides round everywhere on one wheel, but then again he sounds like hes a pro, he knows his bike so well that he put his wheel on backwards with a 5mm difference between axel and hole.... LOL.....

Honastly i didnt look and just in pure stupidity expected it to be the same.

When i first put it on it was sweet i must of had it up so tight it coudnt move. Just by luck...

But when i turned it round it was all over the shop..

I thought the forks were bent in but the problem was soon found out with me feeling rather stupid (after riding it to the shop in the rain )

This is the best laugh I've had all week.
I just had a new axle machined up for my front end and after measuring up with the verniers was worried about a 0.18mm difference between the axle and the bearings.

Shit, if 5mm don't make no difference, I could have used a piece of reo!

dont get me wrong it made a difference it was luck that made it work the first time but i couldnt make it happen again with out spacers
