Re: Kinroad XT 50 Q
You can see it has potential to be a quality bike. The paint job is class. Especially that tank.
Personally, I'd clean it up. Then get some new sprockets and a new chain. New front mudflap. Sorted.
I'd also swap out that engine for a 110-125cc and polish the casings. Bike would look lush in my eyes, wouldn't mind a project like that myself

Re: Kinroad XT 50 Q
I paid £300 for it, i am cleaning it up a bit but as im only 16 this year i cant put a bigger engine in yet (hopefully later on) and yea the gap above the engine isnt the best but you dont see many of these around.
cheers for the comments

Re: Kinroad XT 50 Q
Oh god my eyes! Its actually not that bad and your 16 so without spending stupid amounts of money you wont get a 'cool' bike. Keep it standard and in good condition, learn how to survive on the roads and maintenance then sell it for what you bought it for. Win

Re: Kinroad XT 50 Q
well i quite like the look of the bike, i like it being kinda slow as then there is a smaller chance of me getting a speeding ticket plus it feels much more comfy than a racing bike.
