The hybrid rebuild, my winter project.

[xrxmxcx]

Its time again to rip everything apart and start from scratch with new powdercoat, new parts, and more shiney *****. This year went pretty smooth and the old girl held together for the most part so i guess she deserves it.



Started taking her apart, ran into a BIIIGG snag with the swingarm bolt seizing with the spacers, so we had to cut that out, other than that the fell right apart.



Heres a couple of pics from the year.







..and the ride most recently before she came apart.


AND THE AFTERMATH!









Thats what's consuming my time for now, and taking up all the room in the garage. This week the head is bieng sent to Baldwin Motorsports. The frame is bieng welded (cracked radiator mount, and cracked subframe mount).

i ride bikes most of the time, and i just sold my yz426. let me tell u, i got a jrd 426 and it doesn't even feel like the same engine. way more power to the ground with two big wheels. i love the 426. my favorite 4 stroke engine.
