Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

So here's where I'm at so far. Kinda hit a road block with the intake boot and the kicker. I still have to fill in the welds on the swingarm then grind it down before its off to the powder coater.

Maybe call it a YXR100 (a la XR100).

Re: Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

We were thinking of offering a service, you send us your swingarm and for $225 we send it back braced and ground ready for paint ($25 for return shipping and 200 for labor and parts).

My boss is doing a Kenny Roberts replica:

Man, a nice center-port big valved head conversion would make it easier

Re: Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

Ohhhh got it Supernes, it is really easy. I just ground the cases about half a millimeter on each side of the rear upper case mount and then it slipped right it and lined right up.

The front is a bit trickier but easy if you have a welder. I'm going to finish it on Monday so I'll post pictures and instructions. I figured out a simple way to integrate the stock Honda motor mount into the graft.

Re: Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

I'm gonna have to modify the frame on the rear so the tail slides all the way down.

Re: Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

Thank you Shawn!

btw, it mocks up REALLY nice. MUCH skinnier than the stock stuff but still wide enough in the front so I can use the stock fairing stay as a jump off point.

Re: Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

i like the braced swingarm, have u thought of "plating" it so it looks like the motor gp bikes or like the rcvmini swingarm they make for the nsr ?? i think it would take some work for a sure but the cool factor would be sweet.

Re: Ysr/crf Conversion Has Begun

Mocked up

If anyone has an NSF screen or YSR seat pan they want to part with please let me know






I've decided to not box the swingarm in. If I had thought about it earlier I would have made the cross bar lower but as it sits boxing it in would leave it obnoxiously tall.
