Thank you very much! It was a LOT of fun building this. It's just as nice as any new bike (in my opinion) but at the fraction of the cost, which makes me like it even more. I think one of the rings might be stuck or the valve seals might be dried out because it smokes a little. The motor has never been freshened up so I bought an OEM Honda top end kit to freshen it up this winter. It should last a lifetime now.
I have the same year, converted to dual back in 2002, and120cc bike for my wife. I need to put better suspension and disc brakes after I did as much as possible with lower weighted springs. She is ready for more hp also and we are reaching the limits with this size bike. Great content for me!
Thanks man! These bikes are a ton of fun and not that expensive to work on. Lately ive been frying batteries because i guess i need a special regulator for a lithium battery. Its something im going to have to sort out soon
This makes me excited to finally live in a state I can actually get my xr100 street legal. Going to get into getting it done as soon as possible thanks for the videos made my confidence alot higher about doing it
Thanks for watching man. My wife has over 200 miles on it as of right now. We have some rural areas where the roads are 45mph so if you have to drive at those speeds i would reccomend going with 15/36 gearing. The rear sprocket is 38 in this video. 36 will get you some more top end and still have enough power to do a power wheelie.
Hello Brandon, well done! Rear running/brake light is nice and visible from what I can see. Your wife's excitement is what makes all your efforts worth it! Her ridding skills are excellent. One thing I would have done differently is hot coffee rather than ice cream :-). Much respect to you and family!
@Breeze Rides thanks man! She is really enjoying it for sure! I was immediately impressed with her low speed balance, as far as the coffee, we both love it too lol...I actually always get coffee ice cream lol 😉
That was me I have a xr 100r that I built brother son i payed $250 and put a bbr120 big bore kit on the bike bbr 120cc kit cost $364 and worth every penny take a look at bbr Motorsports have fun
@Hal Brookins thanks man! I have the actual fabrication video over on my welding channel th-cam.com/video/XzVAUdPcHY4/w-d-xo.html and the video of the installed final results with sound tests are going to be out this week. The results will be on this channel once I'm done editing the video.
It does no problem. First gear now actually acts like it should. Before it was almost not useful. It does struggle a little as you go up a few gears but woods riding is awesome.
I just tried a 15 tooth front in place of the 14 tooth and the gearing with the 38 I feel is perfect now! The bike still has plenty of torque but the rpms aren't so buzzy at cruising speeds.
Nice ride, your wife looked comfortable and that engine sounded sweet when it was opened up.
She really likes the small size of this bike! The first time she ever rode I was immediately impressed with her balance.
Awesome build. Bike looks beautiful. Hope mine will turn out half that nice when I'm done. 👍👍

I have heard really good things about the BBR kits. I plan to freshen up the motor this winter so the BBR kit might be a nice upgrade! Thanks!
Hey Brandon that was awesome I would like to do that to my xr100 and you can also put a 120 kit in it and that'll give her more top end speed
I might just do that this winter. Thanks man!
Super cool vid
Thanks!!
This is cool
Thanks! It's a blast on the street!
Hey Brandon, where is the Ninja exhaust rebuild kept? I want to hear the finished product. Cool idea!

This is pretty awesome. Does it still handle the dirt with the new gearing?
It does no problem. First gear now actually acts like it should. Before it was almost not useful. It does struggle a little as you go up a few gears but woods riding is awesome.
Hey ill take your 38 rear if you dont want it😂
