Hey, I'm new here. Let's get things started on the right foot though... Here's my new (to me) '12 SMR 511. Pretty much stock, but we'll be fixing that soon enough. I'll be prepping her for local kart track duties, as well putting together a light off-road switchover set for some casual trail/MX riding.
Always regret the day I sold this. Waiting patiently for a friend of mine to sell his Seel Rep with zero miles...
2012 TC250 1st 250/400, 1st Intermediate, 3rd 450, 3rd Open Pro all in the same day on a stone stock 250. WAR Supermoto Series 2014.
nice looking bike.. how many miles/hours have you put on it before it require the engine to be checked/opened? How the TE's engine perform as SM? I am planning to make mine like yours, but I was warned to do it because at 100 hours the engine will blow, is it true?
Just got my smr511 and what an upgrade. Cant wait to mod it. Heres some pics, sorry for the shitty iphone 3 quality.
I had a klx250sf...my first street legal bike! Was fun, but man what a slow turd. I don't think I EVER took a turn on it. Just rode around town and commuted wide open on the freeway for a hour everyday in slow traffic. It was a champ bouncing off the revlimiter (10500rpm) every day for 3000 miles. Then got a ninja 650r.
miss it dearly... 2007 SXV 5.5 Mods - All black plastics - ProTaper Contour bars, Carmichael bend - Cycra Pro-Bend handguards - CRG mirrors - VDB bump-stop seat - Custom low-profile tail w/smoked lens - LED signals, smoked lens - Black 45T rear sprocket - Marchesini wheels - SME axle sliders - Full Silmoto SS exhaust - TuneBoy mapped ECU - Pipercross air filter - STM red anodized oil fill caps - RaceTech 6.0kg/mm rear spring
I'll find out once I get my hands on them, and the guys at ER finally get me my axle and caliper! Parts/Work undertaken; '13 SXV 450 50mm marzocchi forks; Ohlins TTX22 cartridges (FGMA1295) and springs shortened to SMR511 length, SKF seals, DLC coated lower tubes, Extreme Riders fixed offset fork bottoms (20mm offset vs 35mm for OE), 108mm Beringer 4 pot radial caliper. Just waiting on the axle and caliper from Extreme riders as the axle had to be custom made and is taking for ever! -15mm offset will be interesting too, instead of the usual -3 or 4mm you get with triple clamps!
Last weekend at NCBike. I'm on the sumo being followed thru turns 1-4 . http://youtu.be/TYKOPFBO1O0?t=3m37s
