Yzfisl Started a new thread 2016 Cooper Webb Star Racing Yamaha Build

So after collecting parts for a while. During the recent lockdown(s) I started looking at some of the amazing work that mxav8r, tokyo_tiddler, mitch36 and many others have been doing and decided I wanted a go myself. My goal is to build the bike to be as close as I can get it. It’s not going to be NOS, think...

I’ve picked a few more bits up and finally got around to doing some more to this today. First off picked up a Ti front axle and Ti fork lower bolts that look like OEM. I believe these have come from old JGR stock but can’t be sure. Also have picked up a set of team bars from 2016, in...

I've had a couple of that generation YZF and have always used OEM parts and so far have never had an engine failure.

I saw this photo with no number board and saw the black cable tie pads but don’t know what attached to them. There were GET stickers on the forks for the nationals that year but the Rev counter on the front mudguard had disappeared from supercross which makes me wonder if they had made the switch to vortex. Maybe these...

Managed to get a little bit done today. I’m using the SFS clamps as looking at PitBits from the nationals that year Webb was still running them. I could be wrong but I think the rest of the team had moved away from them after J.Mart had an issue with them. The shock I’m using at the moment is a...

I’ve got the frame as good as I think I can get it so I’m going to start putting it together. I’m going to get some new foot peg mounts, the photos don’t really show it but you can really tell the contrast against the frame in person. Luckily the team ran stock mounts in 2016, I dread to think...

You could be right. I'll check for any markings at the weekend. I had a look at the promo photos for the 2016 FX's though and they were grey. I'll weigh them at the weekend too as the black tank might be a bit lighter

Like you say, it's probably nothing wrong with that new harness. And it was all fine before you tore it down. Did you take the throttle body apart to clean it at all?

Originally I was planning to do a 2018 build, so I have a few 2018 bits. Then I stumbled across some bits that were 2016 specific that were far too good to pass up, so had to change my plans. Anyway I have a 2018 Ferrandis seat, and I've managed to get a 2016 team seat too. But when tiding...

The header is really cool. I love the welded FMF tag on it. I’d like to have one on my ‘18. I’m slowly getting parts for mine to be a ‘18 Star Yamaha replica. Great build so far!
