Aprilia RS125 2010 Spain's no.1
-
Sure, but if weight saving is the key then I'd go with no starter or kick starter. The idle gear isn't even on a bearing, it mates to the cases and incurs drag. You'd actually be better off binning the starter and bump starting it everywhere. Besides, the starter system is pretty light, if you go for a Lithium battery you will save yourself lots of weight
wrote on 31 Jan 2019, 12:23 last edited by NINJA@Calum I was actually going to suggest the bump start method - pure TT race stylee. But for a road bike something a bit more refined is better. I like electric starters, much more cooler than a kick starter for-sure, which may explain why the latest MX and Enduro bikes now have them. But then as most SuMo's are converted from MX/Enduro bikes, electric starters are more common these days. The Li-ion batteries are uber cool, you only have to pick one up and compare it to an acid battery and you are sold, there featherweight in comparison. Plus they come with a built in LED charge tester, so you can easily see it's condition and it's recharges to 90% in six minutes with a compatible charger. The future is finally here for motorbikes!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :winking_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I must admit, I do like the original turn signals. But matter of preference.
Even the ones I put on my DT, I can't help feel stock is slightly better styling wise.

@Calum i like the originals for 2010 model. But i think they are too big, thats why i bought these ones, smaller and βcarbonβ and will look good with tyga carbon parts i will add. For example, on my dtx i dont even use turn signals.

wrote on 1 Feb 2019, 13:41 last edited by@pedrobatista10 I bought some "Red" ones for my DT, but you can tell the difference in quality between these cheap chinese ones I bought, and the carbon fibre that's on it. And I can't help feel the same for these. You'll have high quality carbon fibre parts and these may offset it.
But won't hurt to see what they're like. And it's your bike, keep us posted.

I had similar one's on my DTR, they were not a perfect match with the other parts which I carbon wrapped, but they looked fine and you didn't really notice the difference. It's only really noticeable when there side_by_side or against each other.

Yes, i know this is cheap material, but i dont want to spend cash on turn lights on a reputable brand. This enough for me. If they stop working i dont care. Only 11β¬ wasted.
Thank you so much for your feedback and help. Your bike is my inspiration

But I think turn signals are really important. And I happen to be slightly biased on the Spains No 1 as I sold my Spains No1 to get my DT!
And I ADORED my Spains No 1

@NINJA Yeah it's just a Rotax 122 with a Race Replica Graphics set.
I was going to get another Spains No 1, but fell in love with Max Biaggi's race replica which is why I went with that design in the end.
