Coast to Coast
I started with my 1978 XS500 4-stroke twin,a destroyed '92 Yamaha Blaster 200 quad,and a 1989 YZ250 roller chassis.Long story short, the 8 valve lump has been replaced by the 2 stroke, single cylinder, 6 speed,YZ suspension/wheels/brakes swapped out,different body work- fenders[Acerbis].I completely went through the engine adding a 4mm stroker crank,new seals,bearings,Wiseco forged clutch basket and 1mm over piston,ported cylinder with remachined squish band head,VForce 4 carbon fiber reeds,billet intake manifold,36mm TM Mikuni,K&N filter inside an airbox,full charging system with Ballistic battery,full lights/signals,TrailTech Vapor digital dash, JT sprockets and o-ring chain,Shinko DOT trials gumballs. Whew, that was a long run on sentence! Still need a few things,perhaps an exhaust system would help. I started this the end of Octoberish.Hopefully this puppy will run long and strong!!!
