[pedrobatista10]

i still need to buy more parts, before sending to mechanic.

i plan to buy first melloti handle bars,fork top melloti, tyga racing step kit cnc. then i will tell mechanic to fit it all.

btw, @Calum what you think of melotti handle bar and forktop? you have any opinion?

@pedrobatista10 said in Aprilia RS125 2010 Spain's no.1:

melloti handle bars

I would have had them if I had known about them. Glad I didn't as the bike cost me enough as it is.

[pedrobatista10]

@Calum yeah i see your point. i never thought i will spend so much on parts for this bike :face_with_tears_of_joy:

but melloti handlebards will be on my bike for sure

[Calum]

@pedrobatista10 I may get some in the fullness of time.

To be quite honest, these bikes will be worth decent money one day, but only if left unmolested.

Still, it's a bike worth tuning.

[pedrobatista10]

@Calum i agree with you, but i will keep all original parts with me.

off-topic. Rs250 how much they cost in UK in mint condition?

[Calum]

@pedrobatista10 One on eBay at the moment 10K

But usually around the 5K mark.

chinese radiator tubes arrived today from aliexpress. ~27€ they look good for the price

[declan]

@pedrobatista10 I really need to bite the bullet and start shopping there I’m just scared nothings going to show up lol

[NINJA]

@pedrobatista10 They actually look just the same as other makes like Samco. There most likely the exact same hoses just without the branding.

[pedrobatista10]

@declan you can buy lots of good stuff, just need to lose some time searching. But sometimes low quality on some products

@NINJA yeah, it should work. Calum used on his build too.

Next week i will bring more parts already finished the order.

[Calum]

@pedrobatista10 You know it.

I wanted Samco, but realistically, the bike is never going to get used so...

[pedrobatista10]

Hi!

My package arrived, right now

tyga racing step, melloti complete kit, domino trothle, oil pump cover red and oil cap bc engineering, nck cr2 racing cable.

money flying in parts for this bike :face_with_tears_of_joy: and still so much too buy.

next parts all carbon parts from tyga and maybe yss shock absorver (not sure, if worth need some reviews first)

[Calum]

@pedrobatista10 Very tasty, this is what we like to see! Bling bling.

YSS shock is lovely. I found the rebound the stock, or pattern, shocks awful. YSS gives you nice adjustment and decent rebound. But is still "Budget". I couldn't justify the price for a more premium shock when the bike still actually hasn't been ridden yet. If you intend on doing lots of road riding, then shock is a worth while investment. An adjustable one that can be set up to your weight...even better.

[NINJA]

@pedrobatista10 YSS is a quality brand for-sure. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

[pedrobatista10]

Thank you for your opinion guys!
Yss will be on my bike then.

For now, im dealing a rs 250 diablo nero, if i buy it. I need to stop parts for this one for a few time. But dont worry, i will still buy all parts i said in time for summer

[pedrobatista10]

Hi
Yesterday i tried ro fit the tyga racing kit step on my rs.

But i had some problems fitting that.

@Calum when you installed yours it was plug n play? Or you did some modifications?

[NINJA]

@pedrobatista10 Post some pics of the fitting issues you're having dude, as they may offer a better insight.

[Calum]

Botled on no problems.

Maybe you've been ent the wrong ones.

[pedrobatista10]

@Calum @NINJA

this part on yellow, dont fit. too big one of the sides.

[Calum]

How long?

It is adjustable, the two rods can be tied in, and the anchorage on the gear shaft lever can be manoeuvred
