NICE bikes Screaming and Rob Boucher, drool ! Rob Boucher when you say hand machined forks you mean to say you took a skim cut off the OD on the lower fork legs ? If so I'll do same to my CR250 forks. Wish you were closer to mentor me.. I can only hope to get close to the same look on my upcoming '80 CR125 project. A red Tony D fender will be on mine for sure, love that old school unique rounded look !

Looking to drop some weight off my 1980 YZ250. What make, model, and year for aluminum kickstarter?

PJRAUS : In reply to your question above the '80 CR125 was completely cleaned up and put in boxes when traded for a '78YZ400E which I prefer. A friend in Alberta ended up completing it and it was then sold I think. I never did catch the red rocket bug and preferred going with something familiar ( Yamaha ) as that was what I rode back in the day. Most of the projects below are down to frames and two of them are moving along finally.
