            NICE!

            I hope they washed the frame well after the Dip.

            Had such a headache with residual acid continuing to convert rust through and under welded sections.

            Keep it real

              @darty it was vapour blasted after so it should be ok fingers crossed, what would you suggest waiting awhile to see if anything comes through the primer before painting? I'm not in a rush altho i have pretty much everything to build it I'd just rather do it properly first time round

                        Yes, that Swingingarm and shock are gorgeous?

                        They were fitted to the WR? Lush.

                                      Is the WR swingarm longer than the DTR one as it looks longer?

                                      Btw All Balls sell a complete overhaul kit for the WR via ebay for approx £60 which must be cheaper than Yamaha.

                                          Looking good so far

                                          How much did the work cost for the tuning?
