What did you use for the gauges?

Interesting that the adjustable fork caps were not sold in the USA but seem to show up in the rest of the world.

This gauge is a bike of honda xr250 tornado model

Indeed, the forks of the American motorcycles are different!

and now I'm looking for these products in Brazil, but it is hard to find around here.

That is a very nice tail and panel. The best I've seen so far that still follows the GS frame line and still let's you ride 2 up.

Can you tell us exactly what year xr250 that panel came from and what tail that came off of?

Great looking bike! The best designs are the ones that make the bike look beuatiful as if it was originally built that way.  :thumb:

I like the headlight

Thanks, I tried to make it more current, as if it were made today.

This panel is the Brazilian xr250 it was manufactured here from 2002 to 2010. The tail was made to specify it in fiberglass fittings are perfect, without the need to cut the anchors of the bike, recalling the design of the r1, a guy here in the state of São Paulo in Brazil has done for me.

the taillight used a Yamaha YBR 125, and the headlight of a used yamaha Fazer 250.

I hope you enjoyed!

The black side panels are the bee's knees! They are slick! Those would fit my bike perfectly....
