So Close!...

@Calum
I’m not sure how I managed to wander back on tonight? It’s been hanging the last few days, for me...Does the wheelbase look longer with the YZ gumpf? Or is it just me? I haven’t had a chance to measure anything yet, it’s getting dark real sudden and early now. Even taking into account the clocks going back...
The bike passed its MoT! I have insurance! I even have glasses ready next Saturday!! Just got to book my CBT
I’m potentially a happy bunny! 🤪 ... -

So close!...
Damn it! CBT’s have all been cancelled

Cheers guys, I’m not near enough to Wales though. I only just picked up my glasses for the first time today, so I couldn’t of done my CBT any sooner. Life does seem to throw these things in my way though. Never mind, I’ve got the rest done and dusted

@ The World in general
Man! I so want to go for a ride, rain or not. 25 years is a long time to be off the road
. I am so fucking close to legal that it hurts. I just know that if I do and get pulled, I’ll be shafted 
...Lights (& Looser plates) are on, but not allowed to roam...

I’m a fan! If I where you I’d almost be tempted to keep the current DT you have relatively stock and just enjoy it as it is as it’s a clean bike and then build the other frame up.
Although I know how things go and realistically that just never happens
I see now as well we do actually have near enough the same front ends! I think yours are off a WR or slighter later year though?
Is that a 91’ swingarm too?. Very similar to the 200WR’s just cleaner (no tabs for chain guard etc) + the welds are also much better.
I’m not mistake but I’m pretty sure you can run most swingarms 88/89-91 relatively easilyLovely bike though and looking forward to seeing more of what’s happening, must say I’m jealous of you having such luxuries as a spare frame and all that room to work
On the contrary I do however get to ride less then legal places borderline legally which is why i was going to say as it’s still essentially an off-road bike go and take it off road if ya can.
I admit to having more then a couple rides around my neighbourhood before my bike was legal but most of the time I just quietly popped off Into the fields, a lot of the time if you mind your own business being just an older guy with an old bike people will know you’re harmless.
Odds on you’ll even find someone who’s interested in the bike too! -
