Stripping a Trailrider down

winwun · 09-02-2008, 08:02 AM

I have a Trailrider 110 that is pretty much full-dress and I am seriously thinking I might improve its dependability if I stripped al the superflous non-trail stuff off of it, like the headlight, speedo, turn signals, idiot switches, etc.

Since I am not going to ride on the street, IMO, all the above can only contribute to possible problems, and if it is stripped off, the bike would be more dependable.

Am I thinking right on this ?

If so, can I mess up the starting/running of the bike by taking stuff off, or do I just unplug it, remove it, and forget it ?

Any help would be apreciated.

I don't know too much about the Trailrider, but I know the only thing you need is the mag on pure dirt. Some dirt bikes don't even have a battery.

I'm not sure about your bike, but it should be doable. Hopefully someone with a Trailrider can pitch in :wink:
