Found it


I still think I'll just get the front number plate. I might get two and see if I can make one of them vented.
If you don't already think that clear stuff looks like dog shit, it will in no-time flat out riding, stamp it.

For sure! I loved the 93-94 factory Hondas, the fox gear was epic too!'

Totally dude. That's why I just wanted to do the front number plate. It's hard to damage that and if I can make it vented it will look factory, dawg.

I don't know if anything can top the 2002 CR125R

Haha, I just wanted to show off a little. Had tons of people bag on me for having the "slowest 125 ever" but with a little love it's been an absolute top. plenty fast if you can ride it on the power band, and the things an total tank. Can't tell you how much abuse it's withstood and always came back for more. Love it.

Bought this 02 cr250 a week ago. It came with spare plastics so I couldn't help myself Smile

Does anyone know if the Kawi above is a restyle kit or a custom one off?

Custom one off. Earlier this year Pro Circuit said they were going to release a conversion kit later in the year but it's not out yet. At least not that I know of.

I like the plenum chamber to the carb on the YZ345 AF. It stops the hosing from the plenum chamber to the airbox from messing up air flow , and it (the hose) becoming the dominating part of the air charge equation . I had some nightmare times in my youth with a few hybrids before I learnt about air feed 'tuning'. Sick

But, the small, brake line sized hose to the reservoir that had to be re-located is a hell of a mistake. For those that think it's not, that small ID'd line has to deal with the fluid displaced by the shock shaft, so either 16mm / 18mm, as against what would be lucky to be 4mm. And that's quite a large difference as an ' in circuit ' restriction, prior to the oil getting to the reservoir compression circuitry. Whenever I've had to do such a thing, and it's a fair few times, I've made sure I used a high volume oil line, and high volume banjos / fittings. Usually it involves machining large enough 'landings' to take the necessary thread, and welding them to the cut reservoir / arm / body.

Besides all of that, i'd be interested to hear how that bike handles with a motor facing the "right" way.

Totally different motor. Much smaller, and with at least 3 (I think the counter balancer is on it's own shaft?) less rotating shafts and their associated rotating weights. Things are going to be somewhat different, don't you think?

Please don't tell me you're one of those that think the YZFs are 'evil'. Well, from your question, I guess you are......

To me, they've just been a (pair) of bikes that have shown the usual differences between brands and models, through their variations.

I don't own one, but have ridden them, and many other bikes, many times. Each has it's own idiosyncrasies.

That small diameter hose has more chance of f**king up the handling, than any reversed engine, oh Unusually Large Primate Boy.
