Here's my CA plated CRF50 motard



mods:
- G-Craft billet Kickstand
- G-Craft swingarm
- G-Craft fork brace
- G-Craft rear brake reservoir
- Honda NSR50 wheels and brakes
- Acerbis plastics w/ Alpinestar graphics
- Tall seat
- AHP handle bar
- Trail Tech Vapor
- Baja Designs light kit
- Takegawa 124cc Superhead w/ ported and polished head
- Takegawa Special Clutch w/ 3-speed close-ratio tranny
- Takegawa billet oil cooler
- Takegawa Rev box
- Goodridge brake lines
- Synapse of Japan Forks
- Synapse of Japan triple clamps
- Kitaco kick starter
- 50 Stunt pegs
- Ti-Force exhaust
- Light Speed CF tank cover



The CRF now has a slightly shorter G-Craft swingarm (2" shorter). I'm also starting a ground up Honda Monkey (similar to the US Z50) lowrider build. It'll look something like this when I'm done (I'll have a different tank, seat, motor and swingarm setup)




Here's a vid of the mini bike group ride from this past Sunday up in the Santa Cruz Mountains (we ended up at the popular spot "Alice's").
The bikes on the ride were a Kawi KSR80, Honda Monkey (onboard camera), Honda CRF50, and CBR150. You'll see me at the 1:00-1:40 mark leading the group.

I'd say that little bike is pretty fast..I've been riding my buddies bike with the big bore kit and the torque really makes a huge difference IMHO. I plan on ordering the 88cc Big Bore kit from 50stunt soon.. In the mean time i haft to get used to the low amount of torque a stock 50 has

It pulls pretty good. I have to do a topend rebuild since it's smoking a bit. I wish I had a 4-speed tranny though. The bike tops out at about 65mph.
