Well after getting my 250 and going to a local track every week (area 51) they have a pit bike track that alot of guys do. So Ive been looking for a 110 to ride there. I used to have a 110 but sold it and I liked it alot. So I picked up this KLX. Its an 05 has a Procircuit T4 pipe, high bars, oversized pegs, blue plastic kit with monster graphics. Its alot of fun. i plan on doing some more mods to it like swingarm and forks. I need some info on how guys do the swingarm mod. Is it a KX65 swinger or handmade. Im also planning on throwing some better levers/ shifters on there and some new numbers.

looks good man. i got a fiddy aka CRF50 with an 88cc kit. they are fun but mine only has 10'' tires. I took it out this weekend and let some rookies ride it lol they coudlnt believe the power of it. Anyways look into some aftermarket for the bike they should make a ton of stuff i would think already that you could swap out with the stuff on it now

KX80 Swinger would offer more stability and adjustment. I got an '00 KX80 and the suspension is sweet from the factory, mine has a WB shock on it nut the swinger works good even with Pseudo-Uni-Trak.

When people do the swinger mod do they keep all the same stuff except the shock? Will it just bolt up or will it need mods?
ATCeeya do you race the bike anywhere r is it just a yard machine. Also did you do any susp mods? ps thanks for throwin the pic up

is the KLX Uni-Trak???
It may bolt up, of the KX swinger is off a steel frame, you would have a better chance, the aluminum stuff may be ill fitting.

very cool. Use a KX60 or KX80 swinger then.
Uni Trak is a suspension system that makes the shock really straight and levered. Used on KDX, KX, and KXT.
I was thinking wayyyy old KX, If you use the KX type, it will work because you do not have the system in the arm, and it will be direct.

Mine is stunted out. I run street tires, rear pegs, handbrake (not that I really use it) but it also has a rear SDG shock good for 250lb rider and +2 front spring in the stock shocks. So it is a bit taller..Big bar kit and taller seat as well as a bunch of other stuff..(full exhaust, adult pegs, shifter etc)

That's pretty cool. I should get me one of those to cruise around my neighborhood. Do any of these small 4-strokes have a clutch? A 2-stroke 80 or 85 would be cool but they are too loud for in town.

This bike is a 3 speed auto clutch, but theyre are some manual clutch like the xr 80 or ttr 125. Im not sure of any others this thing is so fun for wheelies though. Any suggestions on susp? Can I throw a new shock in or
?

The old yamaha DT and RT series were actually very quiet. I had an '80DT that was like a sewing machine.
