I just picked up this 2001 xr50 today, im stoked. I wanna go through it and do all the necessary mods so i can stunt it and pretty much pimp it out overall. I'm only working with about 150 dollars...maybe a little more so im trying to keep it cheap. I really want to stunt this thing so i can move onto my F4i and not mess it up to much........its got BBR triples/riser....BBR forks, a rear handbrake(no footbrake kinda bummed), an ?Ishock?. Its also got a couple rust spots on the swingarm and the pipe and the shock is squeeky....the front brakes suck on this thing. I am definetly getting a new pipe for it but what else should i get. I am thinking about going through and cleaning the carbs and painting the swingarm and frame but i have never dont anythign like that (also how should i remove the rust? Any good tutorials out there for any of that? Also need to swap out the spark plugs.......I'm on a tight budget so this is what i'm thinking......clutch kit, stunt pegs, street tires, 12 bar, new exhaust, some sort of front brake upgrade? Let me know if you suggest anything else or have something for sale, i wanna be rolling stoppies and highchair wheelies all day.
