Slosh that EBC is a heavy one. Didn’t think it would be that heavy though 😳 I’ll probably put it on my spare wheel set or sell it. Same with the factory round one. I’ve been holding on to that disc along with a lot of other factory parts for a replica build but I’ve come to the realization it will never happen so I’ll sell it.

Also weighed the screws as this will come in handy later 😎
Most people replace the heavy steel brake clevis with an aluminum one.
Problem I see is the steel pin will wear out the softer aluminum & oval out the hole creating slop.
A few companies have figured this out so if you guys do get one & you want it to last I would look for a brand that has a steel insert.
Only downside is they are tiny bit heavier than a full aluminum one but still lighter than the stock steel one 😎
Now I just need to find a titanium pin long enough to work with this style clevis. I need something about 26mm long & all I could find for a decent price was this 17mm one (& this guy hasn’t emailed me back about a longer one 😑)
Thanks guys & more updates later this week 👍🏻
You are the best, thank you again!
V2 will be heading your way.
My clevis has a much smaller pin head on it so I was able to make one for myself with some of the rod that I turned down for the peg pins.

Got your pm & replied as well 👍🏻
Been a while so figured it was time for an update. Just like everyone else I’ve been busy with “life” in general so not a ton of actual progress.
I did start messing with coatings & may have gone a little crazy on the DLC & TiN... what do you all think?
Looks amazing
For any of the wear parts I totally wanted to go ahead & have them coated.
Hats off to you for living my dream sir.
I’m actually going to be doing a combo of that on some tranny parts too but mostly a REM ISF treatment in there.
Adam, you listening bro???????????

Got the new titanium front rotor in. There was a BIG weight savings so I’m running that one now & sold the Motostuff rotor.
Next was I decided to weigh all my pipes while I was boxing up 2 I sold. For those who are interested I have the following:
FMF gnarly 5.75
PC platinum 5.31
PC works 5.20
OEM 5.10
DEP plated 5.33
Cone pipe 4.90
I’ll be running the cone pipe to start unless the DEP ends up being that much better on the dyno. Overall the DEP is my favorite pipe for the yz250.
Next order of business was I have been helping work on some new Carbon Fiber stuff with my friend The Moto Log. You may remember he did the head stays, power valve cover, case saver, sprocket cover & exhaust hanger that I helped with figment & design that all turned out great! For these master cylinder covers we went from CAD —> 3D printed —> 1st samples cut —> test fitting—> minor adjustments. As soon as he gets the 2nd batch cut & I can verify figment he will make a post for them 😎 He will have the new style Yamaha front master, rear master & one for the Honda front master.
He is also working with Zesiger 112 & I on a recessed fuel cap for the RTech tanks. Zesiger 112 did all the ground work for this one as noted in his build thread & was the driving force behind it! Lucky for us I knew the The Moto Log just got a brand new 3D printer (per the master cylinder covers) so it was an easy call. Once I can test fit them & verify a few things he will also post them up if anyone wants one (I’m guessing black, blue & maybe red). Thanks guys, you all rock!!!
Oh & I made the switch from import to domestic..... 😎 (Scotch to Bourbon)
Would be cool to kit with O-ring, vent fitting, 3/8 plastic p clamp, and maybe a paper drill template. And maybe a special wrench as an added option.
I hope he can take it and run with it, more bad ass parts for YZ owners is all the payment I need.
