Before anyone goes off the chain, the following are MY recommendations based on MY riding style and riding conditions. There is no right or wrong. This list is comprised simply because I often get asked what the “recommended” or “must do mods” are. MODIFICATION WHY LINKS Proper hand guards DO Saves you a lot of…

Aux light project for Honda 250 Rally
Foreword This is going to be a long winded post so bear with me. As for aux lights, the easiest solution would be to go with something like the Denali mounts and mount separate lights to the fork tubes. I wanted something different for 3 reasons. I wanted the light(s) to be as crash proof…
Bash plate for Honda 250 Rally
Many people seem to be looking for bash plates to replace the plastic OEM version, so I though I would share the options that are out there. The Chris Barnes Carbon fibre / kevlar add-on bash plate Chris Barnes is making a carbon fibre add-on type plate that bolts on to the existing OEM plate….

The grip has a certain amount of “free rotation” due…
SW-Motech barback risers for Honda 250 Rally
The SW-Motech barback risers came yesterday and I installed them on the same day. As I suspected the stock cables were too short for the bars to be able to fit properly without some additional work. The biggest problem was the brake cable. I don’t see any way to get any similar risers to work…
