80's/90's/early 2000's bike mods

Doesn't matter if it's a 125, 250 or whatever or manufacturer, I'm just looking for mods that adds old bikes.
I saw an old thread where someone had a 1996 KX 125 I think but the link was dead, sadly.


So yeah, if you've got 'em, post 'em here!

I got the 96 model to work, download the link and replace a bike like a model swap. I did the fantics, those work best.

I tried out the model you linked me, I made sure to replace the Fantic (tried both 125 & 250) and the hands are a bit messed up. Anyone else having the same problem? I don't mean to sound ungrateful, the mod is still awesome.

Hey, uh MX Bikes modding idiot here but how do I apply the model to the Fantic? I put the folder in the Fantic 250 MX1 Oem folder and nothing happened. EDIT: Never mind, I did a stupid

I have a 20-year-old Technisport winter training bike, with 531st tubeset, which I use for commuting.
I have managed to upgrade and repair it, quite cheaply by buying end-of-line sale stuffor eBay bargains.
I managed to fit new wheels, though you need to spread 120mm rear dropouts to accommodate a newer 130mm axle, it works. I used a new 13-28 rear cassette to give me a bit mre range,as my campaign mech already had a longer cage,this worked.
The biggest problem I have had is finding decent down tube shifters.,as STIs are too expensive to warrant the investment, on an old bike.

I like to have these a good set of brakes, Besides, you'd end up needing a modern pair of machined rims to assist with braking in the wet.
SKS Raceblade rear mudguard to help reduce the muck quotient - which could then be reused for winter group riding/training.
Lights and reflectors?
Rottweiler to attach to said bike when it's unattended!
