VTR250 Streetfighter and subframe mod

[Jarno]

I'd be inclined to have a look at Danmoto - I've seen one of their mufflers and they are good value for the $. Made in china but shit-the-bed they are well priced.
Here is a link to their website - you'll need to add shipping but cheap as, think it is in us$ - please check. Also all over ebay. You may need to fabricate a joiner pipe but any decent muffler shop will help you out there. Can't help but think the siamese pipes would look the bizz on ya ride.

I dunno, but if its marked i'm going to be better off than unmarked? plus, its the look i'm after!

And with the pipe, i guess you could just weld a flange from a bike wrecker onto it and fit any aftermarket pipe?

Yep realise that figured look for something for a 250 then adapt it to suit. Half the fun is custom fitting something that no one else has. A mid-pipe can easily be made up at a decent muffler shop if required.

Cheers mate, i wouldn't have thought of that otherwise, and a decent VTR muffler, wayyy overpriced. But this would be good? I just need to get myself a job after moving up here to auckland so i can afford more parts!

Legit! Thats decent as man, if only i had the tools and skills to weld... Sad story but, i'll keep looking around man, thanks!

I cant find a decent pipe anywhere!!

Talk to Peter at Custom Chambers... he'll sort you out.

He helped mod the exhausts on my old Venox [OEM Honda Magna 250] which uses the same engine as the VTR250 and it sounded awesome [like this] once done, and cost only 120 to do while still looking stock. Not sure about the VTR's exhaust and if it can be similarly modded or cost the same, but I'm sure Peter can make something to fit and he does quality work.

I have a 1996 VTR250. The naked version, but its a bit ugly.

I have the 98 VTR250 naked MC33, black with red spring, so I've added a wee red rim stripe.

eyeing up these indicators http://www.ebay.com/itm/160954156895...84.m1438.l2649
so much cheaper online, in store you're looking at $70 for 2x.

om nom nom nom!
exhausts

I need a third job to pay for my wishlist mods

Yeay a fellow pimping vtr rider! get the seat covered, I did it the same color as the bike, because everyone's got standard boring black, although IV had trouble with LED indicators and wof. Wheels strips and cut that ugly as mud guard thing of! Dirt bike handle bars give it a badass look what kinda wheels have you got in it?

You too!

mines black so the seat cover will do, for now.
what was wrong with the indicators? not emarked??
wheels strips - check
I need to replace my bars to get my next wof, what ones would you rec?

[Jarno]

This is where i cut the subframe and bolted it up to raise the tail. Very simple, will get it tidied up eventually.

The old taillight, chunky as.. so i replaced it with a twin led one, looks amazing. But i will spray it black so it merges with the bike!

[ducatilover]

That looks quite nice dude.
Please throw that IRC tyre in the bin though and slam a sexy muffler, or two on it
