What did you do to your Raptor today
Re: What did you do to your Raptor today
Did the Normales and Vs get the same Nissin/Brembo combo? That's the only reason I can think of to explain "everyone" getting it wrong!
Anyway it turns out I'm actually quite happy with my $1 investment, to hell with the Fashion Police!

Ooh you meanies, can't believe that our resident part-muppet and the Aussie contender for Tart's Handbag of the Year are trying to hang shit on me for my mods!
Lucky my opinion's much more important than yours, and you're not near enough for me to do this to ya.
Anyway next is the front tyre too, when I get more supplies from China.
And then I might ditch the high-vis vest and install flame projectors.

A flame projector mod sounds nice! That should scare slow pedestrians and cocky cardrivers

I wonder if they do one in matt black??Spyke wrote:55 years agoHah, yeah if I have to be a Tart I'm a Jam Tart, Hibs are fae the wrang side o'toon! Well I ran out of paint half way through the second coat, apparently a $1 fleabay paint pen (with free postage) doesn't go far. Off for a road test today, at least now I've got an excuse to refuse to park on gravel, that's worth a dollar anyway.
Re: What did you do to your Raptor today
Yeah they do, it's free, and comes with free postage too!

Re: What did you do to your Raptor today
One quick one
They re not the top quality but for the 8 euros that they cost,they ll do the trick pretty nicely.
Also bought a 2pin relay for led blinkers and everything works nice.
White walls
Had some masking tape left over so i thought i would see what white wall tyres would look like on the raptor
