haha seems my dirt bike is cheaper than mountain biking hahahaha. that whole front end conversion was the most expensive thing i had done to it. the exhaust was 170 (craigslist used) and tires. 50-80 bucks a piece. of course i have to buy gas but, ya know 40-75 mpg is pretty good.

not to thread whore, but here is a link for my build if you want to see it,

Heh, I did the same thing when I painted my grill. I peeled off some of the bubbling chrome, but got lazy (go team?) and decided to just paint.. Looks great from 1ft+ away, so its staying till I actually take the time to make another grill. The stock p/u grill is sitting behind my toolbox. Along with a mesh cutout for the lower valance
