December is coming up, and my winter project will be starting. But i need ideas! What do you guys want to see?
I have a couple potential ideas i have grabbed off of vital, what do you guys think looks best?
This one has a really clean, stock look and its my favourite
another nice one clean look but not as stock as first one
little bit different, looks good and got some different colours to it etc
What look should i go after? im leaning toward the first bike, but i like the last one as well

Oh and can ya give me a list of parts you have? i could be interested in a bunch
Whats you fav design out of those 3 vital bikes i found? i need some ideas!
Should i got with OEM silver wheels and hubs and repowdercoat frame to the factory blue colour?
Il have pics up by sunday of how the bike looks right now, its really stock and kinda dirty.
The Shop
1994 replica being almost all stock except for a works pipe and some good suspension. Thanks to tblazier for the pics. Go through there, all kinds of great ideas!
I couldn't embed the photo on my phone? But this bike is definitely one of my personal favorite YZ's.
That looks awesome! I have polished a few frames but have never had the "brushed" look. Can you be a little more descriptive for those of us who do not have any prior experience attempting this look? I have a project I am working on that I will reveal soon!
Sorry op, I didn't mean to hi-jack your thread...
-04 Frame
-06+ sss suspension
-09+ yz250f swing arm and rear hub
Equals perfection.
No hi-jacking. The OP may want to make sure he does the same quality of work on his 1994 Replica!
Billet bearing throttle tube
New oem rear fender
New White 09 oem front plate
New oem seat
I look forward to seeing your project!
Here's mine before and after...
And don't worry, those horrid looking orange grips will be gone by spring time.
Pit Row
On a side note just send the jug off to millennium technologies. They do great work.
Can you give me a parts list on it and or just what you did? I like it
Or just buy the suspension on Ebay. Last time I check you can easly find the set for less than $1k.
The 09+ swing arm is what a couple of the top guys used (doubach and ryno). Its a direct bolt on. It lighter and handles better.
This is everything I put on it. and not everything are shown in the two photos.
Pro taper adjustable clamps, bars and sprockets.
Works Connection pro perch, frame guards, radiator braces, axel blocks, master cylinder caps front and rear, oil fill cap and hour meter, I mounted that on the number plate mount.
ARC front brake lever.
light speed fork guards and 06 front brake cable with new style fork sliders.
FMF fatty pipe and Shorty silencer.
Force reeds.
Fasstco rear break clevis.
Gold Valves in the forks.
Powder coated the frame.
Acerbis front disk guard.
Boyesen ignition cover.
Pretty much everything I can think of. I did try the ODI CFT bars and liked them but the Pro Tapers just felt better to me.
I will say when the time comes to replace your top end, call Wiesco and get a Suzuki ring and run that. Way tighter ring end gap and you can definitely tell the difference. It was an old gokart trick my dad learned and taught me. I ran half race and half pump gas at 40:1 and it ran perfect but I'm near sea level for the most part. The bike ripped and was one of the best 125s I have ever ridden. A little head and cylinder work would have been my next step but I sold it and will be getting a YZ250 soon. If you have any question let me know man.
My question about that is, with a more rigid swingarm and the steel frame I wonder if the balance the chassis had would be upset bolting on that 09 swingarm. I can see it not being as big of a deal with the aluminum frame but I have to think there is a reason Yamaha hasnt thrown that swingarm into the production line especially after the updates made in '15. It would be so easy for Yamaha to consolidate their parts having the same swingarm, hub and wheel set on all 4 of their MX big bike lineup but they havent done it. So maybe there is a reason???
I have considered doing it to my 03 but not 100% sure yet......Definitely going to get some SSS suspension probably around March, and dedi684 I havent forgotten about the seat, I just sold my bike and am getting caught up on some stuff
This is what I think im going to do with my bike .....now If I just knew someone that had a small sand blaster.
The Yamaha's of this era looked great such a clean look to them
