BUIC Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 so it's always been a little fantasy of mine to have a show bike, but I don't want to spend a complete fortune (hints why I'm going with the 250R). I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas on parts and what not to make this thing a head turner. from paint to accessories. Also if you guys have any recommendations on shops in BKK that would be a huge help. Thanks, BUIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinchester Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I've always fancied a set of upside forks on mine with twin discs. Posted with Thaivisa App http://apps.thaivisa.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) Op. if you don't know what YOU want on your own bike. then I would just dive up on the idea. Edited March 22, 2012 by thaicbr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gippy Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Go to the Bangkok motorshow at the end of this month to get some ideas and then get Sumet to fit all the stuff for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taichiplanet Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) Maybe not this; from the current Tokyo Motor Show. You'll certainly get noticed though! Edited March 24, 2012 by taichiplanet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlos Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 USD's and twin discs would be a tasty upgrade while you talking of stopping power how about this conversion that i saw at Bangkok's International Motorcycle Show earlier this year OTT maybe? (ok it's a Ninja 650) but anything's possible with a deep pocket and the right contacts I'd like to see an early 90's CBR400RR lump fitted to one of these little Hondas, along with brake and suspension mods it would be one of a kind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loserlazer Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) go for 'bikers' parts. They offer the best quality and design on slide frames, rear sets, clip ons, cosmetics etc. www dot bikers do co dot th change the exhaust. get some new fairings, fender eliminator new led signals. new lightning. a new projector headlight. a nice seat cover. New discs. quick shot throttle. pro arm on the back - you can fit nsr 250's - MC28 - pro arm without and drilling or touching the chassis. you have to change the rims as well for pro arm. Bigger rims, wider tires it means. upside down front shocks. braided brake lines. new performance ecu new performance air filter a good helmet and protective gear as you will be close to your bike in the shows.

VocalNeal Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) Go to http://www.cbr250thai.com lots of ideas and after you have found out that most if it has been done before..... Best seems to be a Ducati Monster look-a-like although there is an Orange KTM look-a-like. ????? Edited March 30, 2012 by VocalNeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
