My wife's 100 dollar XR80 - Page 7

That XR100R is a very nice find.

I'm with you. I would certainly spend $40 for the CRF70 plastic instead of $600 for Honda plastic.

Good score, Dave! We were camping with a family on the weekend, and their 12YO son has exactly that bike. Very nice.

Thanks for posting. I figured you had dropped off the map.

The plastics have arrived. And they look great

Hoping to get them installed tomorrow. I'll be sure to update with new pictures

Indeed, that plastic does look great.

We eagerly await your photos.

Well here it is
Not as much as a direct swap as I read. Rear fender I knew already wasent. But side covers were not either. Front fender was

It turned out great anyways. And for 6 bucks a piece for replacements. Can't really go wrong

I have been picking away at the 1100 in the background. Not much update on it though. Just cleaning the carbs lol
Have to sort out some wiring. But I took ignition apart and removed all the key waffers? Works with any key now lol. Also got gas cap open crescent wrench and a flathead. Also works with any key now lol.
This is how it'll stay till it's more completed at least it's functional
