Very nice!

Curious - why is the motor out?

Well done on hunting down those missing parts!

Even though the bike was mostly all there. The only way to do it correctly is completely go through the entire bike. That's just my opinion. I take all my bike completely apart especially used ones.

Should be as it was comming off the Race trailer. I was missing a few of the ymus titanium bolts and I have since tracked them down. I am missing only 3 pieces to the puzzle, the billet factory linkage, the magnesium bar mount top clamps, and the cdi. I doubt I'll ever find the cdi but, the linkage is in the works right now. I may have one in the next month or so.
Try getting in touch with someone from either Star Racing or Bills Pipes. I was a YOT mechanic in 08 when the team was dissolved. The team was supposed to merge with Star Racing in 09 but that fell through, but I think some of the old parts inventory made its way there. In 09', Jlaw racing was based out of the Bills pipes shop and some old inventory may have ended up there as well.

I have searched every where even went that route. It seems the stuff has never surfaced. I have been able to find bits and pieces but, I'm pretty pumped where the situation is.

They are denso factory Yamaha radiators. They are a little longer and the tanks are bigger. They were not welded up.

When I was putting the graphics on I spotted this on the tank 15hrs. I guess they even logged the fuel tank hour usage for failure.

N-style did not have the actual art file saved. They have been working hard to get this nailed. They are just about ready for print. A little more tweaking on the shrouds and trim kit, then they will be printed!! The Dragon won't be hologram but a shiny silver, which is gonna be fine. I talked to them about the hologram but it would be very expensive to have them screen printed, so I just opted for these!







I'm about to dig into my 2000 YZ 250 and want to do a YOT theme. Are these available for purchase at Nstyle?

I honestly doubt that will happen. As tempting as it is. It will just never be the same again after one ride.

This is one of my favorite builds, you're really an artist when it comes to building these bikes.

Cosmetically it's complete. I'm just waiting on a few little pieces start this beast up. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I just have to somehow convince the wife this one belongs indoors.

Thing is beautiful! You most likely already know, but if take a black paint pen you can color that pro-circuit tag in then lightly scotch bright the excess off. Bravo man, she is a beaut!Woohoo
