Can a Blast be tweaked for light dual sport duties? Dirt roads, dual tracks, nothing too difficult.

What parts would be required?

Any pics or projects to inspire?

Thanks,

M

I do that sometimes - just go a little slower, avoid terrain that will drag the muffler, and be ready to put a foot down.

humm, custom exhaust with the muffler under the passanger seat, add a belly pan, tires though are the hard part.

I have a customer that is doing it. She did change the wheels, get rid of the fender protector, go to true mid controls, add an off road fender to it and is riding the hell out of it.
Its heavy, and doesnt have as much travel as the 250 ds/sm's but it is a hoot to ride. I will try and find pics of it, Until then enjoy the pics EZBlast sent me of one.
