First off let me say Hi. Since I started building my 70 for my son I have used this sight for great information, so thanks to everyone here.
My son is 8 years old and starting to become a good rider. I wanted to give him a bike to match his needs since the old XR was a little dated. Let me say I have contacted numerous vendors over the past few weeks, Jeff at Reeg has been the bigest help. The customer service from Reeg has been better then excellent.
I stripped the entire bike down, oiled, lubed and cleaned everything. Added new Sano +2 swingarm, Fox air shock, ASV brake lever, BBR shift lever, BBR skid plate, Project 123 Gas cap, Leo Vince pipe, Uni filter, re-jetted. Still waiting on Reeg Hyd rear brake system, Black Excel rims and other bits like pegs and 13 tooth front sprocket.
After I get the bike sorted I may add a Big Bore kit, the front end will remain stock until I cave in and buy the Marzochi front end.
Posted a few pics so far, I'll keep you updated on the build. I love working on this bike, and I might have to sneak a few rides in.
