Didn't you get disqualified for two years?.....

Well i guess your made of money so why not?

[GOONR]

That is one nice looking kit!! It's your bike, your dollars.. I'd do it:2thumbsup

You should be proud of how dyslexia/autism (which retardation was it again?) hasn't held you back from such original and witty comebacks. That said, I'd go with the tyga kit, it's pretty sweet

[White trash]

They do look pretty hot alright.

I may be missing the point so no doubt someone will enlighten me. A nice ZXR250 is worth 3-4K? Spend another two on the kit, then at least a K getting it nice.

You've just spent 6 to 7 grand, on a 250 that looks like a ten, that's worth $4K.

Nope. I don't get it.

well no....

tidy they are worth 5-6 grand in summer, and if somebody wants a unique one with the tyga kit they are willing to pay more for it... because to get a stock one to look this way would cost them alot more than say an extra 1k on the pricetag with it already done...

i can reclaim some money back by selling my origional fairings which are in great nick....

people say modded bikes arnt worth more... but i know when im buying a bike if i want to put power commanders exhaust etc on it anyway... im happy to pay a bit more than a stock one when buying to save on the extras i will get anyway

some people say they add no value over a stock one, which is a crock of shit.



im keeping it for 2 years...

and fact is money is not a factor, i have no problem taking a loss on a bike at sale time once i have had my fun on it...

[wbks]

ya huh, autism...

you just got owned by a tard.Right... Not sure about the owned part, but the tard bit shows

Nope. I don't get it.If you can't ride anything bigger than a 250 for two years let alone a 1000cc I guess it makes sense to get something really nice.

but you are right...

[wbks]

The fact that I'm actually communicating with someone so tardish makes me a tard, too... So much tard. Why don't you get a custom paint job, rather than a boring one tone? If you're going to get something different, might as well make it stand out. A copy of the original green/black/white zxr color would look good if you picked deeper colors

[skidMark]

I think we have a winning colour folks...

excuse my piss poor photoshopping...

2.5k im after for it... thread in online trading.

[sil3nt]

That colour reminds me of someone elses ZXR that was on trademe (and on here i think). Wonder if they ever sold it.

I say go for something no one else has done before!

Well im kind of limited colourwise, and the tyga kit will make it ahem...different... to any other zxr... lol

i do like the 848 ducati pearl white though...

[98tls]

Nice bit of kit there Skiddy,i say go for it.To me anyway the money spent or what its worth when done is irrelevent.If you get enjoyment from it then all is good,hell ive spent more on my old thing than its ever going to be worth and ive still a ways to go yet.

[vifferman]

If you're keeping it for a while, and it makes you happy, go for it. Unless it's a (rare) classic, a motor vehicle's a money sink, not an investment, so unless you're WAAAAAY over-capitalising it, it doesn't really matter.
Tell me: do you know where you can get those indicators on the white and green fairings? I really like the look of those.

Ahhh they are part of the tyga kit, could get them to throw in some more with my order to save on shipping?

[Morcs]

No point spending that kinda money on a 250.

Buy a proper bike.

Why bother spending the money on the 250?

Better off saving it, and keeping the zxr stock but well maintained.

Perhaps but if i have to have it for 2 years, i may as well have it how i want it.

[sil3nt]

That white in the first post looks pretty fkn awesome to me! I would go with that and rice it up with some decals :bleh:

[mynameis]

Looks like you've got a few toys pilled up in the shed Skid, sell all of them and you'd be able to get a nice 04 ZX10 :D done.

[Mikkel]

Between the fairing kit and getting a decent paintjob you'd be almost half-way to a 2nd hand ZX6R...

...the 250 will still be a 250 no matter how it looks and you won't see a single dollar back on the new fairings, even if you don't crash it.

If your 250 is in good nick that should net you at least another $3,500.

Your bike, your money, your choice.

Dude, you poured thousands into yours...

ive already run the figures etc...

if it looks nice itll sell for more than a stock one.... mine has all origional paint perfect condition fairings now, which i can sell... and 30,000 k on her.

[Mikkel]

Dude, you poured thousands into yours...

I never poured thousands into my 250. I just took care of what needed taking care off to keep it in original condition.

u trackdayed it with spotless fairings that everybody said to take off...


eventually binned... got it repainted.... and spent forever trying to sell it at a ridiculous price.:yes:

[Mikkel]

Ehrm, no... nobody ever said take off your fairings and neither would I have bothered to (besides getting race fairings for a 250 is going to be either difficult or expensive). Shit happens.


eventually binned... got it repainted.... and spent forever trying to sell it at a ridiculous price.:yes:

Well, so much is true. I actually binned it in an attempt to break your braking record - but alas, I do not possess your insane skills and I couldn't even do 60-0 km/h in 4 meters or less.

Why not learn from that - don't waste your money on a bike where you won't get the money back. No matter how much money you spend on it, it will still be a 250.

The price wasn't ridiculous though - the only problem was that I didn't offer finance. It sold for $6,000 inside a weekend after I had a dealer sell it on behalf.

[98tls]

Why not learn from that - don't waste your money on a bike where you won't get the money back. Most of the bikes ive had in my time ive spent plenty of money on which has resulted in owning some really nice bikes that stand out in a sea of Oem stuff,moneys just money,enjoying your motorcycling is priceless and if its something a little different that floats his boat then so be it.I continue to spend money on one of my bikes with no hope of ever getting it back but i get so much enjoyment out of that particular bike i consider it well spent.

Yes, but your bike does indeed stand out. It is quite spectacular to say the least.

My point is that the TYGA on a 250, with all due respect, just looks like a smaller zx6r. Combined with the fact that sM has quite often raved about experiences riding bigger bikes - I am merely suggesting that he should consider what he want thoroughly before he throws a large sum of money towards this mod.

But, as I wrote in the first post I made in this thread (and I guess I should just have not bothered replying in the first place):

Your bike, your money, your choice.

last i checked zx6r didn't have that tail light....

did you ever think maybe i like the look of a zx6r.... i actually prefer it over it as it has headlights more like a 06 zx10r....

and the amount of learner riders that want a 250 that looks like a big cc bike is incredible... i could flick this bike once done on trademe within a week for 6k

but im not going to because i like to customise my bikes how i want them

and the tyga kit is just the beginning of the mods.

but you lot will have to wait until its done to see what else gets done to her. :woohoo:

sorry or snappin at ya a bit mikkel i get on edge when everybody shuts down everything i do, kinda a natural reaction these days.

I know and there for I didn't snap back. ;) Oh, and yes I did assume you like the look of the zx6r... I do.

And I wasn't in any way trying to shoot down your idea. I, not being aware you were stuck back on a 250 ccm restriction again (and with the apprarent intent to observe it too :nya:), just thought you would have done better to save for a bigger bike. But hey, there's no time like the present. One thing though - if your zxr250c is a 1993, have you had it derestricted yet? If not, getting that sorted should be quite worthwhile.

De restricted? the onlyhing ya can derestrict on zxr's is the speedo 180k cut out, havnt got one yet but easy enough to lay my hands on...

apart from that ive done a full alloy DID exhaust system.

But going to change the end can to a stubby kevlar one.

[Mikkel]

If it's a '93 onwards it'll have an engine that is putting out 39 hps (crank) instead of 45 hps. This change occurred between model years '92 and '93 due to new emissions restrictions in Japan. Thus, if you have a zxr250c from '93 or later it will have significantly less top-end power compared to the pre-93s.

It should be possible to destrict them in order to get the full 45 hps. I don't know how and I don't know how expensive or difficult it would be - but it would certainly be worthwhile.

To give you an idea, I had my '89 zxr250a (recently rehauled top-end) on the dyno at the Sound of Thunder last year. I got ~37 hps at the wheel with the stock can and gained 2 hps across the board just by taking the can off (supposedly a fairly generous dyno - but the absolute figures are unimportant). As a comparison a newly rebuilt '93 zxr250c was put on the dyno and it made ~29 hps at the wheel - that's 8 hps or ~20% (i.e. a whole fucking lot really). So yes, if your bike hasn't been derestricted - that'd be the first thing I would look into. :yes:

still seems to haul ass...

will look into it...

they may have just changed the cams or something, i got a and c model cams kicking round... ill compare the two... couldve just been a cdi restriction of some form...

What is all the anti 250 crap? A cbr/zxr will always be a great fun toy to ride. And a tyga kit makes the zxr stand out in a less penis plus hand way than normal. A real twat would be building a turbo set up for a spada.....:rockon: Go for it skidmark, that tyga kit is sexual

An sc12 is too big to fit on a spada. Instead an toyota ct12a from a jzz30 soarer is sitting waiting for flanges. Manifold will be started tomorrow :woohoo: Ans I do all the work myself [except making flanges], I do it because I can. Just like mark and his zxr idea.

I don't think you need to meddle with the cams...

If you want to go really bonkers - get a zxr250a engine and pair it up with your zxr250c engine. While the crankcases should be identical the crankshaft, barrels and pistons are not.
Bore x stroke varies slightly between the A and C model:

A: 48.0 mm x 34.5 mm = 249.7 ccm
C: 49.0 mm x 33.1 mm = 249.7 ccm

If you pair C model barrels and pistons with an A model crankshaft you should get:

49.0 mm x 34.5 mm = 260.2 ccm

A big project, but if you got the time and money it would be fun I am sure.

yet you're bumping the other POS incessantly for dreaming $$
