The unfinished bike is bored .060 over and has a Wiseco prolite piston and an MX port.

Other than that I'm going to keep them mostly stock

A member on her has notified me that the cleaner looking bike is actually an 87, runs ok but needs some work. The exhaust is thrown together with about 6 hose clamps and some thin aluminum, leaks like a sieve. I think this is causing a huge loss in power, it runs as though it is still cold even after letting it warm up.

Also has a substantial oil leak from the shift shaft. It has been worked on before but is still wallowed out pretty bad.

However, the 86 was started for the first time this weekend. I took the wiring harness of the other one, kicked it 2 times and it fired right up. It has one heck of a coolant leak though. I need to finish the wiring harness that came with it so I can have both running at the same time :thumbsup:

With a little work on both I should have a couple nice R's, I'm pretty happy. Will keep this thread updated, though it may not be until next week before I get a chance to work on either

I really like your 87, not to stock(stock is ugly) but its very clean.
