Welcome aboard.
By the list of mods and parts I can see you've been lurking around Chinariders. lol Looks like you've done your homework. Only thing I see missing is a picture.

Enjoy the Ride!

Thanks for the welcome fellas. I kind of took a chance on the foot pegs. They are actually meant for a KTM Super cross. They slant downward a little bit, but are super grippy and comfortable once your foot controls have all been adjusted. As for my battery of choice, I went with an Ever start ES5 AGM Power Sport battery. Its slightly smaller than the stock battery, and performs much better. I will post additional pics once I get the wrap completely done. I am using 3m DI-NOC Carbon fiber Vinyl Wrap to do the job.
