Re: ysr/450 build

Thanks Painterdude

The swingarm is 3 1/2" longer and I raked out the front by 2 degrees and that pushed the front end out by 1 inch. So all together the bike should be 4 1/2 inches at least on paper. I should take a true measurement though.

Hows your big bore coming along??

Unfortunately, my motor is still sitting on the bench, have to make money first, maybe next weekend.... So you have also increased your trail which will help with stability///

Lets just say that using plain old paper towels or white rags leaves little lint looking marks on the frame. Other than that though it cleans up nicely.

Re: ysr/450 build

Banshee has been done. There is no way someone can stuff a R6 motor in a stock size YSR frame. Hard enough stuffing them with a single cyc 450.

Re: ysr/450 build

I still think a Yellow & Black KR SR replica with an RD125 2stroke twin would howl. Not 450 fast, but shure would sound pretty.

Re: ysr/450 build

What grade materials did you use for your swingarm bracing? It won't really be load bearing but after seeing the picture I'm curious of something.

I put a CRF150R motor in my NSF100 and it Rips. NSF CRF150R conversion
This 450 build is insane but it's looking great. I really like this project can't wait to see the finished product. Man, this bike may inspire me start a new project.
