Super pit bike/dual sport project.
Latest thing I have been working on. Current specs 125LBS 125cc about 6 inches of travel.
I am currently working on the electrical for lights and a couple minor reinforcements. Goes at least 40 mph currently.

Wow! Looks like a MTB front wheel, but what are you using for the rear wheel?
Love the stretched swingarm.

Oh, yeah, baby! Show those posers from CCW and FX Bikes how it should be done PROPERLY!
I see you've extended the swingarm, but what forks do you use? |

The forks are DNM downhill forks borrowed from my downhill bike pretty much slid right in to the triple clamp. The rear wheel is a 19"rim laced to a crf50 hub with a sprocket from my old lifan gy-5

Does the front tire hit the skidplate?

nope has about 1.5 inches of clearance bottomed out, in the picture it is about half compressed due to the tie down straps.

That's excellent! When I changed Son of Weldangrind's pit from a 14" to a 17" front wheel, I had to bend the skidplate for clearance.
