Thanx GP I think you got to pull your finger out and get on with yours now
Such a good feeling to have put it together from some boxes of bits and to kick it over and hear it fire up for the first time
I still got loads to do but at least i know that its a runner, even after i had my fingers in it |

@ Sebastien, like i said am using the exhaust i got with the project, it fits ok just not alot of ground clearance on righthand side, i don't know who made it , and i will check the clearance at the front next time i fit it, i think its ok
I didn't get a silencer can with the project so i have gone and bought a Toomey Racing can from USA for it specifically designed for the YSR its only 9" long so doesn't look out of place |

@ Fletch >> sory for fbk, lost connexion
For toomey's , i have one on the 80 ysr stock motor ... run fine but don't you think that the hole would be too little for 125 exhaust ? _________________ www.54x54.eu

Well am still waiting for can to arrive from usa so will have look at it when it arrives, everything else i look at seems to be too long
Maybe a good thing if it restrict's it a bit as i may need to tame the power |

I have however found myself a JDM rear light unit |
There are a few around, but probably easiest to get them on Japanese Yahoo auctions.

Wish I could get more of my mates on smaller CC bikes too.. Had my years of speeding around and still have a license buster.. But... I get much more of a kick nowadays going out on the two stroke 125s, 200, 250s rather than the 1000cc+ hyperbike |
The nice thing about the little 125 2 squeaks is that they are slow enough to thrash the absolute knackers off but quick enough to be fun and with an interest power delivery.
All the best

A little more progress this weekend
As i have an RD125 wiring loom its a bit too long for the YSR, so i made up a simple undertray for the back end so i can lay the loom on it
Here's a pic of the underside
Looks quite neat i think
And here's a pic from above
It sure isn't pretty but it is all i can manage to do with the mass of wiring
It will be hidden by the seat unit thank god so no one will ever know
Fitted my rear hugger too
Don't know whether i like it though Will have to wait and see
Spent the rest of my time routing cables so they dont snag and trying to tidy the wiring, not much left to do but still alot to do if you get what i mean i think it will take a while to get it all sorted properly, just want the rest of my parts to turn up so i can get it finished |

Thanx T-S for the compliments
Good idea about the caps for the end of frame tubes, i might get some, as long as they don't add too much weight
I didn't make the hugger, it was amongst all the bits, i haven't had a chance to fit all the bodywork and stand back &look at it, thats why i'm still undecided as to whether i like it or not
Hopefully over the Xmas holidays i will get time to fit the bodywork and have a good look at it, post some pics up and everyone can give me there opinions on it |

Great stuff Paul, looking forward to seeing how your YSR monster turns out too. With 125's in them we need to get you and fletch down Santa Pod for a gag shoot out !
Just noticed too, another advantage of working on a gag - you can find an interesting use for a ladder and it's light enough to lift onto it
PS your gonna get noticed with that 69 number plate _________________ We are where we are... |
