YFZ450 Build

[Blasterb0y794]

Well as you fellas know, I picked me up stock 2006 YFZ450. Only aftermarket part is that is it has a Ricky Stator stator coil. I don't have HUGE plans for it other than restoring it to its original beauty. Every bearing and seal will be replaced along with any other parts that needs to be replaced.
Everything will be powdercoated on this baby I:I
For starters, a set of A/M levers will be put on, tires, graphics kit, nerf bars, and an exhaust.
For colors...
Frame-2 stage pearl silver
Motor (Oil lines, water pump cover, ect)- Electric pearl blue
Clutch and stator-2 stage pearl silver
Im not one to plan things out ahead of time as I like just going with the flow and going with whatever comes into my little head 8-|
Enough talking, PICS PICS PICS

The yfz power will be plenty. I dont like doing big motor work like that. After the simple stuff is done, it will be time for a lonestar, or durable axle with a long travel suspension complete with a-arms and shocks.

My side case is trash. Literally. I have an extra bottom end in my garage so im just going to switch it over.

Itd be about $20-$25 bucks. Considering I work there, i get all my stuff for FREE I:I

Damn. I know your gunna want a pretty penny for them! 8-|

Just an update....
Most of the parts have been blasted minus the frame, sub frame and few little pieces.
The frame will take me about 3 hours to blast maybe 2 with new sand and if the blasters running in tip top shape. If all works well, i should have the frame done by this week.

 

[Blasterb0y794]

What do you guys think of white accent pieces??? Im ordering ONE industries graphics and they have hints of white...

 

[brandoz28]

i think it'll look good with some white here and there.

 

[Blasterdude27]

Some white here and there would look nice, I really like a white swinger.

I'm just giving you some advice that that may save you some pennies. Long travel A-arms really add for the "wide quad" look. I would recommend getting some JD Performance A-arms because the guy who actually welds and fabs up all of the parts was the welder Laeger's used before they went bankrupt. Short Travel cost you about $250 less than long travels plus if you send your shocks to GT Thunder for them to re-valve them, You could have a set of almost as good as Elka's. Plus, if your on the trails, you probably wouldnt want but +2's. Nice buy though dude. Did it have a blown top end or something? I've got a 400ex that i just rebuilt and was suprisingly easy because I had a service manual, I would recommend getting one of those as well! ride on dude!
