LiamDTR Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) Hey folks, Looking at buying a set of excel rims tomorrow!! Just curious (may sound odd but I know a couple will understand) as to how much they weigh? Front and Rear please!! Thanks in advance! Also is there anyone out there who could make an undertray for the DTR? I know it sounds a bit bizzare but I'm out to be different! Edited March 22, 2011 by LiamDTR
Moderator DirtyDT Posted March 22, 2011 Moderator Posted March 22, 2011 Why are you going XL? Isn't just plain Large good enough? Not enough to make a difference on a 125 I would guess.
LiamDTR Posted March 22, 2011 Author Posted March 22, 2011 Lol Dirty, I wanted a set of SM rims the bike as a spare set I'm still looking at some others but yeah, Won't be getting the ones that this post was for as the seller is a f"£$ng retard! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/dtr_W0QQitemZ270723206451QQcategoryZ10490QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp5197.m7QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D5%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D7924294477082068519#ht_500wt_1156 total spanner imo, Was going to put on up to £230 bid on there and would have paid for parcelfarce to collect it but the bloke wasn't interested... Saying he didn't have the time etc. yet he has time for people to pick them up but not time enough to sign a bit of paper!!! His loss anyway!! The other set has the forks anyways so will be getting them I hope!
Moderator Airhead Posted March 22, 2011 Moderator Posted March 22, 2011 You would need the forks anyway for the brembo caliper on the larger disc brake
LiamDTR Posted March 22, 2011 Author Posted March 22, 2011 I know OG, I'm actually in-undated with potential kits at the moment, the most attractive out of these is the TDR 125 Setup which is the Black Excel SM wheels (drools) and they already have some rather tasty Pirelli tyres, but if I can find cheaper I will!
Moderator DirtyDT Posted March 25, 2011 Moderator Posted March 25, 2011 The wheels on the link went for £40. I do like the supermoto look. I recently sold my SLR650 but would but another. The problem is that unless you have a fair few quid to throw at the mods, happy in the knowledge that you will not see any of it back, then that is OK. Plus the insurance will be a killer.
LiamDTR Posted March 25, 2011 Author Posted March 25, 2011 Well that's the thing, I was happy to have them off of him but he was "selling for a friend" and ... quote "ther is plenti f interezt m8" His loss... I would have paid for a courier an all... twat lol. Sticking with enduro for a while anyway, My DT parts go-to-guy has a full SM setup ready to fit for if/when I get bored of enduro for £200 which is what I was expecting to pay. Buy I did just pay out over £400 in bits and paint the past 2 days so be patient as the beast will rise!!
