Thanks for sharing, any idea of the weight of the bike now?

[@bigals.ktms.9937]

Not sure atm but will get a close idea soon.

[@bigals.ktms.9937]

had a look and if the stock bike is 106kgs dry I reckon it would not be any more than 120kg without fuel.

Hi Mr Bigals, what a great video. Such a good watch. Jeez looks like a a nice base to start with such a neat bike. Love the setup man it looks sick. You can't have too much light out front. We all say oh I'm not going to ride at night so I don't need good lights...... But sooner or later we get caught out and we get home in the dark dodging roos all the way. Would love to know what your lighting set up is? Did you make it or is a proprietary system. I have a screen in the shed that I am going to make up a small tower that cable ties to the forks so it can be removed and install the oem light for trail riding. Thanks for the mention that's awesome Regards Steve

Hey Steve thanks for the posative reply mate. Because my brother and myself come from a road trial racing background it was day night racing and love the night part. As for lights we make all our own setup and have done so for the last 30 odd years. We also were heavily into stator rewind and even did 3phase on some , then started making adjustable AC shunt regulators and ran the h4 globes at 16 volts , and let me say there nice and white at 16volts mate. Just for a fun fact we got 350watts out of an xr600 using xlfly wheel and xl stator rewound. Thanks for the positive feedback mate regards allen

Interesting that you plan to have both the 350 and the 500. I’ve got 350 and 690, but keep thinking about a 500…

[@bigals.ktms.9937]

I built the 450 up as a rally /light adventure bike .and the 350 would be what I would race only.

[@miro_s]

@@bigals.ktms.9937 👍 assumed it was a 500. In the video you also mention the 690, did you use to have one?

[@bigals.ktms.9937]

@@miro_s nearly bought a 690 then decided they were to heavy for what I wanted to do.

[@scottyyy3608]

Nice build, why the 450 over the 500?

[@bigals.ktms.9937]

@@scottyyy3608 to be honest the 450 came up for sale, they also Rev out quicker than a 500 its the only second hand bike I have bought in 15 years but was nearly new.
