@Calum thanks man, starting a new fashion haha. Get a 90s bike
Real men wear pink

@Louis-James I don't know what it is with me lately, maybe it's this bike, but I've been going through a bit of a pink patch. It's slowly becoming my favourite colour, and this bike isn't helping haha!
Looking grand.

Got these babies laced up.

@Calum kinda want to eat them
candy pink .
Yes stainless spokes.
When I get a bit more cash I'll buy some tyres -
Quality looks great - can't say I agree with the colour choice as I'm more of a black with added black kinda guy
Your project is like mine - restricted by cash flow or lack of.....

@Nottsbiker We're all in the same club dude, aka big dreams - shallow pockets!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I hear you dude!
This year is getting the DT200WR onto the road (its scruffy) then over the winter doing a SM rebuild. Trouble is I've also got a TDR125 Belgarda I want to make a 200R and my 900 Monster in bits ready to build with lots of carbon and full Maxton suspension.
Next project is going to be a Suzuki SJ with replica Willys Jeep body mounted on top

So I got a pair of brand new continental twinduros for Ā£130 bargain!!
The rear is 150... I know this is way oversized for a 2.15 rear rim... My dt125r with 2.15 rear rim has the exact same tyres but 140 on the rear.
I want it to look whacky since it's a show bike... Has anyone else put this size on.... I'm pretty sure people have put 160s on the standard DTR rims.
The front is 90/90

@Louis-James I know years ago my mate had a silly rear tyre on his bike. All the spokes broke eventually
@Calum it's only 10mm more than my 125r.
I know they're not the best idea.. but wanted it whacky
