Lowering a 2020 MT 03 or R3 Using TREX RACING KIT Ep3

Ойын-сауық

PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE Lowering a 2020 MT 03 or R3 Using a TREX RACING KIT. This is episode 3 of the Wrecked Bike Rebuild Series and this week we are lowering the bike just a little over an inch using a high quality billet aluminum lowing kit made by T-Rex Racing. Now my wife will be able to flat foot it at a stop light.

    This channel is great, Brandon. Inspiring! I have an old Honda Nighthawk with all four if it's carbs sitting on my bench. Been there for several years just waiting for me to rebuild them and put back on the bike. Watching this channel has me fired up to get that done. I do have a few other things that need to be done before that, but hopefully I can get it back together this fall. If not, I'll be a good winter project. PS Getting my garage insulated and heated soon so if it does happen to be winter when I get to it... I'll be doing it in my heated garage. Yay!

    @Tubeagrutis thank you! Its super relaxing working on bikes (especially in the winter). Its a great feeling taking something that needs some attention and bringing it back again. Im never in a hurry. I just take my time, usually have a little jazz music playing in the background and just let my troubles dissapear. Its good for the mind and body

    Thank you so much for this video! I just installed this kit on my 2022 MT--03 and it fits like a glove (even though it's "officially" not meant for a 2022 - I took a chance!) The product is great but the 1 page instructions from T-Rex leave a lot to be desired. Your instructions and hints were amazing. I could not have installed this without this video. Well done!

    Brilliant job done! I find this video super helpful as I lowered my R3 at mechanic shop 3 months ago. And now I want to reverse it as I'm more comfortable with the bike now even on my tippy toes. Do you know if I can just remove it and keep the flat head bolt washer from the kit or I'll have to use the original bolt from OEM?

    Thanks! I think the bolt that came with the kit will be too long. You will want to use your OEM bolt. If you don't have it you can get parts for this bike super cheap through Motosport. I order a lot of parts through them and I've never been dissapointed. They even are great if you need to return or exchange something.

    Oh yah. If you can almost flat foot it now, you will be able to for sure after you lower it. You might not need a shorter kick stand either. I shortened mine but I probably didn't need to because the bike has a pretty good lean before it's lowered.
