@oldman Personally I would return the damaged one straight away.

@vtrn_raptor I got one of those Cyclone alarms, which is perfect for my use case. A full paid tracker system can really save your bacon.

Bike has gone to new owner now so just a quick update to final changes. Managed to source final oem panel so that all bodywork now genuine new yamaha parts. Had to purchase another decal kit though so have spares should they be needed. Final carb jetting was 25 pilot jet and 240 main jet and seems happy at that, running in at the moment and still entertaining to ride. Left the water hoses off the carb and just looped cylinder head feeds, never used in the cold by owner and aided quick removal of carb setting up. Gives me funds to carry on to the next one after the summer but endurance blue panels hard to find, may have to resort to having originals refinished and sprayed to match, have a nos tank and low mileage speedo though!

@louis-james Don't know about TZR cylinders. But 3MB 3MBP 4FU Are bolt ons. The 3BN has a slightly bigger bore, so shorter stroke, as a result, a 3MB con rod will bit too long.

Norwp, I needed to make sure that I could physically mount it to the radiator aswell. But thanks for your concern

@calum Yep 170 vs 144, not too much in it tho.

Check the choke passageway in the floatbowl, for some reason people never clean this when they clean the carb.

Not convinced of that cylinder head at all....

Yeah me 2

@jens-eskildsen Weight is probably one of the better modifications you can do. It's "free", it increases performance everywhere (straight lines, corners etc) and reduces strain on the engine. For my current build, weight is going to be key, unfortunately the bike is already pretty light and it's the fat sack of shit sitting on it that needs to lose weight LMAO! So I'm on a diet just as my bike is. The difference is totally measurable.

@Biker_123 They're mental, only blipped the throttle in second gear at like 10 mph and it just wants to shoot off! Deffinitely what i would upgrade to. @Uber_Beluga Don't be envious! As my luck goes this will last all of 2 weeks haha

Looking lovely, I'd be reluctant to bend the pipe, just make up a larger bracket and move it closer.

Aha that's awesome!

Ok thanks

@andrewj1680 any thoughts on polishing

@irongamer727 The NSR simply is not as high as spec as the Aprilia is, it frails in comparison. Now a Honda RS 125 I definitely would love to hand. Shame I don't have 10K lying about the place. They run their powervalve off the gearbox I believe.
