Kawasaki Fury 125 Dirt Bike
Share this
Ryan Villapoto’s dominance in Supercross with his champion bike Kawasaki KX450F has been the inspiration of Mr. Kristian “Tax” Espinas in turning his Kawasaki Fury to a stunning motocross dirt bike. The Fury was developed in the shop of Mr. Philip Bonza.
To be able to transform an underbone into a dirt bike, a lot of planning and calculation were carefully done, starting off with the computation of the height and wheel base of a dirt bike and scaling it down to the size of an average underbone. After all the necessary data were gathered, the bike’s front forks were extended together with additional height adjustment slots for the rear suspension.
Frame reinforcements and lightening came next followed by installation of the pegs and plastic parts setting. After which, engine support was set including the links for the gear shifter and rear brake. Painting is in the bottom of the list. The assembly of the bike followed.
After all the modifications were through, the result was a stunning green machine ready to take on the rough roads.
