Well it's been 2yrs since I bought my 2007 black Capo I've done 17,850m and the only issue was the oil pressure switch had a slight leak

I've been toying with changing it but for what I like the look of the tiger,sm-t and trek-k plus some others

But then I go for a test ride and think the capos just as good and even better in some ways + it'll cost me loads to change

then there's all the dosh I'll spend on extras when I've already got the capo sorted

What I'm thinking is maybe spend a bit on upgrading it a little
how about a set of upside down forks wheel and brakes from a breakers and a wider rear hoop so I can fit some sticky rubber
anyone know what front ends will fit to achieve this

So what would one hope to accomplish with such a change other than the ability to do it?:WTF:

Very nice but for the cost:eek:
It would have to be a second hand set of a similar lenghth to keep the cost down
I'll be at our local bike meet over the next few weeks with my tape measure in hand

That's it...the cost.:bangwall:
Probably better picking up a used KTM for when you wanna 'get dirty'??
