Figured it was a good time to post up a short semi build thread on the new Supermoto build.
Didn't take as many pics as I should have, but got a long ass youboob video of the build so...
Figured I may as well put it on 'internet paper' for some documenting and sharing of the build.
Started out with my Original Promoto MX I ordered when they first came out, then went on back order.
This was the Pro Circuit (Green) version. With things as they are (were) when I started this out, I was hoping to have it ready by early spring, but life got busy and time got thin so it sat around most the summer pretty much done, but not finished till the last few weeks really once I got the Grafix figured out and ordered along with the outfit for the rider.
HM Moto Designs also did this rider gera and grafix design and print. Dylan also did the MAICO MEGA2 490 Promoto MX I have a thread on also.
Not hard to describe really. Black and Gold was the goal, So I ordered a shizload of Treal Promoto upgrades and got to work.
I'll try to list the build list from Memory, and I still have a few things that I want to finish up on it.
Pro Circuit Promoto MX
Black Plastic Set
Rear End
Treal Adj. Swing Arm in Gold
LOSI Titaminum Hinge Pins for Swing Arm Knuckle
Treal Chain Guard in Black.
Treal 36t Sprocket in Gold
Treal Rear Brake Caliper and Disc in Black
LOSI Titanium Rear Axle
Treal Carbon Fiber Rear Rim in Gold
Treal Rear Hub in Black
Vitavon SuperMoto Rear Tire
Hot Racing Exhause Pipe
Treal MonoShock Top & Bottom Shock Body Caps
Green Slime on the Orings
Chassis
Extreme Carbon carbon fiber chassis plates
Treal Fly Wheel Box in Gold (hidden so you don't see it).
(I did this to add weight down low to help lower cog a bit)
Treal Skids in Gold
Treal Foot Pegs in Black
Treal Gear Box Cover in Gold
Hot Racing Bearing Holders for Gearing on Transmission in Raw Aluminum
Treal Front Brake Mount in Black
Reefs SMART 179 Micro Servo for Front Caliper
GPM Brake Servo Arm in Gold
Front End
Treal Tripple Tree in Black
2Million Diff Fluid with a little 500k Diff Fluid mixed in
(LOSI uses diff fluid in the Goose Neck of the bike to dampen and reduce head shake to some extent,
but it can still get pretty floppy from time to time.
Stock was 500k, and being I was aiming for onroad, with more forces due to traction, more dampening
would be needed, so I used some 2 million. I had 10 and 20 Million diff fluid but that seems like it was
too much.
LOSI Shock Oil in the Front Forks
(Stock is 45w, but I think I went down to 32.5w oil to soak up the braking into corners from speed).
Treal Caliper in Gold
Treal Lugs in Gold on
LOSI Titanium Fork Lugs
LOSI Titanium Front Axle
Treal Front Carbon Fiber Rim in Gold
Treal Front Hub in Black
Vitavon Supermoto Front Wheel
Treal Titanium Front Brake Disc
Treal Front Disc Brake Pads
Red Front Fender (Red Tie)
