Hello again! This is NobNoc Motorsports with our fifth build! We're trying to get this one done in the week lull while Old blue's frame is at the powdercoater. This is a 1974 Yamaha RD250 with 5xxx miles on it that we did a frame off restoration on a few months ago, and now it's back in again for some more custom work! Thanks to our friend Chance for poking around with his photography skills.
1. This is where we're starting out.
2. The bike gets half stripped (motor on, plugged up to prevent contamination) and the back end gets a nice diet...
3. Whilst work commences on some brackets for the swingarm.
4. Adding support gussets to the upper frame (where the seat will be)
5. Better view as we fabricate brackets for the shocks. Plan is to mount them under the seat, similar to our other build going on at the moment
6. We're not sure what this style is, so we're calling it a streetrod. But here it is in loose mockup.
7. Aaaand with some new paint, still in mockup.
Stay tuned!
