Supermoto build from moto x - stomp
So I've been wanting to get into racing again for a while. Used to do minimotos as a kid and did a few indoor championships. I've got the bug again! I saw that they raced the pit bikes. So I've gone for it and bought a bike - stomp 140. And I'm going to convert it . So here's the build thread . Constructive critatism welcome .....
So the bike , stomp 140 with a yx140 engine ( researched and saw that this was a good one to go with?!) picked it up today in a sorry state . Got it cheap (£250) so wasn't too worried as all I really needed was the frame , forks ,engine.
Here it is as it is now......
Have just ordered £200 worth of bits to get me started so will update as they arrive and as I strip and clean her.
