The nasty hybrid

[wicked265R]

Well guys i tried to keep the other post up here but it seems to keep falling with no response, so i will start a new one.
So far the motor is fully bolted in with all the mounts done (I'll try and get pics up asap). The chain is on but I might have to move the motor over a little more to make sure the sprockets line up. I made a custom yoshimura exhaust for it which is just about done. It will be probably the coolest and most original part on my bike. (see picture below). I have a 400ex oil tank to use but don't have the oil lines. Does anyone here know what size oil lines to use? Also, if someone out there has done a hybrid like mine, I need to know where the feed and return lines are on the motor. If you dont recall what motor im using, its a yz426 in a 250r frame. Pics will really help me out there. Also, I need to know if a 400ex air box and boot will fit. once I have the airbox situation fixed I'll have this baby running in no time. can't wait to hear it purr.

P.S. Has anyone used a stock 250r radiatior with the 426f motor? will it keep it from overheating? I'm saving for an oversized radiatior but can't get one in time to start riding. I just want to be able to ride without overheating the motor or worse, seizing her. Let me know guys, all comments are appreciated.

Right side of the motor is the in line and left is the out line. All you have to do is hook only one up and kick it!! watch the oil come spraying out the side!

That's one sweet exhaust canister.

[hontrx265r]

I don't know about that exhaust, I think this one would suit you better

[Iliketogofast]

Did somebody wrap that in CF and rivet it on? That is sick. I'm doing it to mine.

[wicked265R]

I could still do that if I wanted to :rolleyes:

[hontrx265r]

It is an actual carbon fiber exhaust from a 426 I modified for the hybrid.

some1 post pics of how they rigged up their oil tank etc and help this kid out

[xrxmxcx]

i will post pictures in a minute, ill run to the garage, hold on!!!

[xrxmxcx]

first off, the feed for the tank


it is on the kicker side, you will need the ST0CK YZ426F line for it, and the ST0CK 400EX line that comes from the bottom of the tank, then rubber hose like seen in the picture attached, to attach them to each other using hose clamps as you see in the picture

[xrxmxcx]

next you will find the return for the tank behind the shifter on the shifter side


you will once again need the YZ426F return line, and the return line for the 400EX oil tank, and then use the proper length rubber tubing to attach the two, and make them fit nicely without any pinches in the tubing

[xrxmxcx]

this is how the tubing is run on my houser yz426, its long but it doesnt put any bad bends in it that would restrict flow in the return to the tank


the hose i am talking about is the red one as stated in the picture


it runs from the top oil line in the tank arching so it touches just about the tank, then down to the bottom of the shifter side timing cover case, then between the case and frame rail, to the oil return located behind the shifter like the above post shows


if you have any questions i will be glad to help if something doesnt make sense, goodluck!:macho

[xrxmxcx]

[wicked265R]

Thanks XRXMX and MEAN250r. I really do look forward to racing or even just riding with you XRXMX. you're not to far away. ROAD TRIP!! our hybrids are like brothers! they look so much alike which is sick as hell. I'm gunna try and photoshop a banner with your quad next to mine. I'll post it up if I finish it.

BTW, XRXMX, what throttle cable did you use? I've been told a yfz throttle cable works fine. Let me know about that. Are you running an oversized radiator? cant really tell by the pics. Thanks a lot guys.

[Mean250r]

hopefully ill see u at the track sometime :devil:

[xrxmxcx]

lol yeah make a trip out of it :eek2: :devil:



ill check and see what throttle cable i am using, but believe it is a honda cable, but ill check, im not sure

on my bike i have the walsh/c&r oversized radiator that they sell, its keeps my bike running around 180* running engine ice
