Another Returnee

Nice bit of rust right on the join there!

[NINJA]

Yeah that dosen't look good at all, you may have to strip her right down and start afesh???

[Darty]

Definitely start again, but it's a sick idea and I've seen a DTRE with a YZ125 engine run before. What year engine do you have ? Pre 1996 motors line up quite well.

I'm not sure what i am going to do with this one yet, it came with the rest of the yz minus the frame, so it might find a frame and rebuild the yz. Either that or i'm thinking of using the front end on one of my unadulterated frames as the DT stem has already has already been pressed into the yz yokes, and the ignition has already been welded in place.
Here's a few more pics..

Another problem with it is that it sits very high, i'm 5,11 and i have to stand in tiptoes on it. All in all i think this one would involve to much work. I have just sent off for the v5 for the red one in the background, so as long as it comes back with no problems, that'll be my project bike, as it's frame is in the best condition out of the three that i have.

I will start a project thread soon..

Oh yeah, another problem with this bike is that the rear brake lever mount has been cut off to accommodate the YZ swing arm!

[Calum]

@Fused Okay, So stunt bike?

Use a rear handbrake lol.

[Darty]

@Fused
Would you consider selling this one?

[Fused]

@Calum I would be too scared that the swing arm would fall off after a couple of jumps!

[Fused]

@Darty I'm not sure atm, as i said i might use the front end, as it's a mod that i wanted to do to my last DT. Nothing is 100% yet though

@Fused Cool, keep us posted it's a project that could be saved
