    CRFS has Plexus.

    I also saw it at Cycle Gear but it cost more. Cycle Gear doesn't have the Maxima SC1.

    Chris I will have to see if I have any Motopro spray polish & cleaner left. If so, I will bring it with me tomorrow for you to try.

    Sorry it took so long.

    Just want to thank Timoyz1 for the powder coating work.

    Bike looks great Tom!!!

    That's great that Ryan gave you all the parts to redo it and all you had to do is run his sticker on the front fender... :lol: :lol:

    No free parts, I think once you make two of his mortgage payment in sales he give you them for free. :shock:

    I had three fender stickers here for the bike. I have some Maxima Racing Oil ones and some Cycle Gear ones.

    I think after Christinas knee gets better we will take her out to the track for the first time. Mom doesn't like that idea, but she will only go on the kids track for now.

    I'm guessing she is pretty stoked and proud of the transformation the two of you were able to do on her bike!

    Fun project, time together working on a goal and a killer end result! Sounds like a win/win if I ever saw one. Nice job to you both!!!

    OM - the bike looks great.

    those KX100's are great bikes. I did about the same makeover as you a few years back to my now ex-wifes bike.

    I am sure she will be biting at the bit to get it dirty.

    Christina,
    Yes I want a rematch but this time we switch bikes for one round. Best out of three.
