The Lawrence's former agent was deformed and to add injury to insult he has also been sued by them and indicted.

This is setting up to be a massive disappointment. A neutered, heavy, emission compliant DS/enduro bike is my prediction.

Haha oh I know, I really want to get started on this build sooner but life gets in the way sometimes... other build projects, riding, full house renovation we're mid way through, building the new workshop (now finished!) and a baby due this month. I'm hunting a 98 KX125 frame in the UK, then I will get started with the frame mods and the assembly can genuinely begin! I also want to do this thing justice, and film it all going together properly for a Youtube video. I gave it a go when building a YZ125 years ago for a...

Some photos Hoppo sent me of it under construction on RC’s bike.

When Carmichael’s bike rolled into the 1998 Vegas Supercross, it was fitted with a hand-made cone Pro Circuit pipe. Cone pipes were commonly made back then for the team to quickly test different specs etc. A couple of years back I got in touch with the man who made the original cone pipes for PC (and sometimes still does!). I told him about my long-term project and the bike I’m building, and he was keen to help. They pulled Carmichael’s ‘98 SX bike out of the showroom and my new cone pipe was built onto it - built to the...

These may not look as exciting, but some of these took years to find. I've had saved searches online and always had a look out for these bits. All NOS original OEM parts (not the superseded versions that are always slightly different. Rear brake pedal, chain guide, rear brake hose, rad louvres, right side frame guard, case saver, throttle cap and Nichiwa blue plug cap etc... ...also NOS CR125 front master cylinder and CR chain roller that were used on the team bikes.

Factory KHI steel gear lever, and the original Berg carbon lug guard (think already posted in this thread)

Pro Circuit 1-1/8" Bar clamp to fit the Emig clamps, PC grey carb canister, NOS PC ignition cover, PC pull rods and PC billet throttle tube.

I'm most likely going to run with the technically correct shorty that was used on the '1E' Vegas Shootout bike that I'm replicating, but I got lucky to get ahold of this race-used silencer off Carmichael's 98 MXdN bike from Foxhill! It's a really cool piece of history so I may just have to park it on the wall on display. It's a larger diameter pipe, and longer than stock to help deal with the FIM noise regs. It still has the pink marking from tech inspection with RC's #23 marked into it.

Emig Racing billet triple clamps.

In 98, Factory Kawasaki and Team PC both used parts made by Gary Emig (Jeff's Dad) under the brand Emig Racing. Emig Racing billet axle blocks and a billet clutch perch (that looks stock at a glance). It used the stock level/adjuster/rubber but had a nylon sleeve to help in a crash and was all machined from billet. I'm not sure if they were sold to the public back then but they're a really cool 'up-close' detail. I have the 1-1/8" one piece Pro Circuit bar clamop somewhere too that I think was made by Gary.

Are you sure about that? They list their 250f without fuel, so why would the 327 be any different? https://www.kawasaki.com/en-us/motorcycle/kx/full-size-mx/kx-250f/2027-…

It’s gonna take some fancy footwork to get some weight off - pipe silencer, lighter axles swingarm pivot footpegs, lighter battery, lighter tires. For reference the (claimed) dry weight of the Beta RX350 is 220.5lbs
