Excellent job on the frame. Wow. That is excellent fabrication. I didn’t have the nerve to cut out the dented portions and simply covered and welded in. The forks appear to be 95. 95-96 appear to be the same. 97 they switched to twin chamber. Many will encourage a switch to the twin chamber. The advance in technology with that system is considerable. Amazing how so much more complex it is. The issue comes up with the conversion is typically the bottom bracket. The stops for turning the forks has changed. With your obvious skills this may not be too...

Had the bike all together but decided that my cheap paint job didn't match the rest of the bike so stripped it back down and sent the frame off. Got these back yesterday

'Why manufacturers will never go back to two strokes' because they'd rather kill the sport than admit they were wrong?

8/17/2021 6:37pm So I got this 1982 KX80 bike from a friend who has had it since around 1995. The engine was rebuilt by a guy from our local dealer. It was stored in his garage and never put together. He finally said just come by and get it. It is missing some parts. I have not done a full inventory but...

7/26/2021 5:30pm I did change it to 2022. That was my mistake. I got the year wrong by accident. You comment implies that I totally made it up. I also said public land. What other land is there that is public besides state and federal? There is public land and private land.

7/26/2021 5:06pm Well now California has banned all dirt bikes produced in 2022 or later on public land. Looks like you have ride at track or your own property.

I have also been busy on some fabrication: I made my own bike stand out of 16 gauge sheet metal. I had some metallic blue paint leftover from another project that closely matches the F4 tank, and duplicated the kawasaki logo off the tank and cut it out on each side of the stand. 
The missing bearing for my rear hub showed up so I test fit my rear bushings and everything fit just right including the rear sprocket alignment. I decided to mount my ignition coil (originally mounted on the battery box that I removed) up inside the...
