    Well maybe just a little bit :D

    They were both very interesting assemble and develop projects. I made many of the small and fiddly bits/mods to help to put them together. They were both great fun to ride. The problem with projects like these are that it can become an obsession and a cycle of constant evolution begins.

    To raise the bar for a third time is proving more difficult, but do-able....

    so, these are built entirely from scratch? is there a racing class these are raced in?

    Yes the frames were made from scratch though not by me hence describing them as "assemble and develop". (I hate it when people use the word "build" in place of "assemble"!).

    Both of these use a lot of 125GP components, some of which required small modifications.

    The air boxes/intakes were all made specifically for the bikes. Tanks are modified 125 (GRC) and custom made (Tigcraft)

    I raced the GRC in BEARS, Sound of Thunder and Ultralites classes in Australia,then British Supermono in the UK.

    The Tigcraft was raced in UK and some European rounds of the Supermono Championships. Sadly the UK series has lost support and no longer runs, but it is doing well in Europe.

    Here's the OG version:

    We stock the 450X versions but if you need them for any other CRF we can get them in a week or so.

    I like, how do I get them from this sight? My bike is red, but I like the phobia graphics, are they clear or white?

    they are white. just order them from the link above and mention your CRF model and model year. they would take a week or so AFTER the new year to get them shipped.
