This thing is sweet! So sweet it has me buying one today!! I'm getting one distributed by Ice Bear. Should be about $1000 OTD. Anyway, I'm gonna be following this thread to see what direction you take with your Gorilla modding. Cheers!

Woot! Congrats!. So far all I've got coming are some new rims. Should be getting to Composimo soon for powder coat!

What rims did you go with?

ritishi · **Posts:** 1153 **Location:** Lanc, Ca. **Gender:**

Went with these. Now all I have to do is find some tires! Where should I have these put on at? Like your shop Bradley? Lol!

I can help, but cant gaurantee they wont get scratched :shock:

If not Zeal Racing does a good job

ritishi · **Posts:** 1153 **Location:** Lanc, Ca. **Gender:**

Will zeal mount tires too? Or what about riders choice...hmm

Dont know how much riders choice charges but zeal is very reasonable. I'm even more reasonable, like a case of beer :wink:

As for tires, the nicest ones to get are Heidenau tires

I'm gonna start out with an exhaust and a steering damper. Bigger carb, wheels, and rear disc will be next. Where did you get your wheels?

Yep that's who I got my rims from. Now I need to find sine decent tires!

Any suggestions? I've got 2.75x8 in front, and 3.50x8 for the rear.

i'd upgrade to 10" or 12" MUCH better tire selections
