The engine cradle was not even close on the 125 chassis. I had it already so I decided to use it any way. I graffted in the kdx engine cradle . With some modding it fit pretty good.

Nice work!

I like the guards, those look pretty stout.

I like the way it looks with that white frame.

What kind of paint did you use?

royadams · Post by **royadams** » 06:49 pm Jan 22 2014

I used ppg automotive paint. I work in a body shop, i painted and baked it there. I think it will look good when done. I need to save up a few more $$ to get my graphics kit. I'm going with white and green.

I fabbed up a bracket to hold the coil in the factory position. Wiring almost done just heated grips and headlight left. I need to find a smaller tail light to fit the kx rear fender.
