D1EHARD's WR250X

I fit 17" Pirelli MT21's on her. 130-90-17 rear and 120-90-17(rear) on the front. These pics are right after fitting the tires on. Hasn't been clean since!

The WR250TW! Every time I see that bike I think of how neat that would look like riding across the terrain of the moon with those balloon tires.

What a concept. I agree with SheWolf, it looks like a TW. (but with a kicka$$ motor)

That is certainly something you don't see everyday... Cool though =3

Must be amazing in the loose stuff and mud

or snow...especially SheWolf's bum warmer

No, that would be Fargo, I think.

I got some new graphics from MagikSC over on SMJ (he does a great job btw, I had a design in mind, emailed it to him and a few days later had my graphics...) and figured I haven't posted pics in a while, so here are a couple:





I've done just about every mod I can think of. Running 12-45 sprockets on stock chain, AIS/flapper gone, airbox modded to hell, HMF pipe and FMF programmer, Pro Taper bars, LED blinkers front and back with Edge kit, etc.... I have a flatland skid plate that is currently off due to the sound....I'm experimenting with some foam/rubber stuff to see if I can reduce the noise from the skid plate.

Think bigger. As in bigger bore.

For my skidplate I went to my local bicycle shop and asked for some old innertubes. They were happy to give me a couple. Then I cut the tubes up and zip tied them to the frame were the skid plate bolts up. The skid plate installed perfectly and the rubber in between the skid plate and the frame rails works perfectly to get rid of any unwanted noise or harmonics.

Did the Pirellis rub anywhere when you put them on - if so did you cut them?

No sir, they did not rub. I saw where some folks said that their MT21's rubbed...weird huh?. I didn't have to cut a thing, they fit just fine.

D1EHARD, where did you get your under the bar mirrors........been trying to find some good ones and I really like the way yours look. Also how much did those graphics run you? Those MT21's look mean on the WReX......... thanks man.

UFO makes underbars like that, that's what I have and love them.

Diehard,
That is one neat bike. Makes we wonder if I should have gotten a X instead.I love the graphix.

Thanks for the compliments guys. The mirrors are standard bar-end mirrors that I bought from Amazon. Just search "bar-end mirrors" and you'll get a million of them. Pretty inexpensive too. They don't give perfect rear-view vision, but they work enough to be useful. The view is under my arms, to the left and right. I hated the mickey mouse ears.

The graphics were $69 bucks plus shipping for the shrouds. MagikSC does full kits, but I just wanted the shrouds. He does great work, I highly recommend. Here is a link --> http://www.magiksc.com/

Thanks for the info...... yeah I am not a fan of the stock mirrors, but I also am not a fan of not being able to see the car behind me that is about to smash me at the stop light.

I have a doubletake mirror on just one side and it works great. I got the longer arm option and I can see behind me better than with the stockers. It's made of RAM components and was costly as a S O B but it works great when up and folds or removes easily when not needed. It doesn't move at higher speeds like some of the cheaper mirrors do. I had the "ken sean" style folders and they don't like to stay put very well. I was constantly messing with them. I may eventually get a second since I have a RAM ball on the right side too now but it would have been about $100 for both at the same time. Your looking at about $50 for one solid, foldable mirror.
The one thing I figured out is that if you do the right side which is listed as reverse thread and they have a special mount for it, You can still just buy the 10mm threaded ball mount and use the reverse thread adapter from your stock mirror. I have a 10mm RAM 1" ball on both mirror perches and that's how I did it.
