Put a skid plate and the Fatty on it (and that factory frame grip tape Tongue ). Have VForce reeds I'm going to put on after I ride it stock first. Just need a shorty silencer and a white rear fender! Oh and I might get black fork guards and a Cycra Stadium Plate in "works clear". Nothing special. My old man wants to keep it stock.

Edit: Also, I'm thinking about putting a 450 top triple clamp on it to see if it fits. Then I'd have the option to move the bars forward. And if I decide to race it I'll probably get Tag bars and grips.
Nice!

Here is my 2 Stroke contribution.. Its a GasGas Nambotin. very few were imported into the states for 2011, they came with Hahn hubs, factory ti pegs, Ohlins TTX shock and several other items specific to the Nambotin edition.

The two cleanest bikes on here by a mile.

There is nothing better than those factory Yamaha's. I am all about the factory clean look and they nailed it with these beauties.

i've been searching on the net for a company that sell's them for the yz 2-smokes for ages,but with no luck.as far as i know the one shown on the bike in your pic was a hand/home made (in italy) one off.however,i have found another italian company that makes carbon tank's and subframes for the factory gp mx team's in europe.they have also made/tested a yzf carbon fibre mx frame.if your serious about a c/f tank and have a fat wallet you could contact them or cmt and see if they will make you one.heres the link to the other company (crm compositi),if you click on the "history" bit on the motorcycle section you can see the pics of the frame.the rest of the motorcycle section is showing as "site under construction".

yes sir i will do that. a while back i found a company here in USA (i cant remember whom they are now) that did make carbon tanks for street bikes such as harleys and a couple other street bikes (like Ninja's)!! I contacted them and they said they did nothing for dirtbikes! it bummed me out because that was the closest i had found. all is well and it will work out in the end! thanks again for your info.
