wouldnt hurt to check a few things before assembly but you probly already know. hopefully you didnt get variable transfers

Here's a couple of my other bikes I've done up and/or own. the ct70 cost me about $6000 but I made it a 75mph machine.

crf450 streeted and just converted to supermoto (hence the loose chain)





My Hypermotard


Pismo on my old Xr628 back in 1990 , I broke the shock, frame and my nuts (clickable thumbnail)

Long live 2 strokes! , 78 Ts185 for sale, kinda:

That CT70 is BADASSS!!!!

That was the first bike I ever rode.

The Y does not fit.
I did a search for this and couldn't find anything. the downtube tapers a lot . How are you guys dealing with this?

Pics:

the taper (both thumbs)



interference is 2mm +

wasn't quite sure what you meant until I saw that one GSS portjob. I ran to the garage like forrest gump and checked mine, they are all very symmetrical- thank god

still working on this one after delays on other projects. CRF250X motor weighs 60lbs, 91 CR500 wieghs 58lbs, I thought the difference would be more but losing weight is always good

Jeff... Any progress on the full cradle?

My buddy is designing a new Y right now at his machine shop in San Jose. eta is about 30 days on that. Nothing else to report right now.

Thinking of sending the frame to animalpower500.com Any one have experience with them. Semms well worth the $1200 to have them do it all

From what I've seen by animal power they have used square tube without the radius corners, which may work but isn't as clean. If I was getting someone else do to my frame I'd be talking to paul stoffers or solid bro, there are lots of pics of their work and some really nice problem solving they have done on different build throughout this site.
I bought motor mounts from Paul and in that dealing he seemed like a top notch guy, great parts, fair price, and shipped as soon as I paid.

Update: Frame is finally done. Sent it away to a guy on here and so far it looks really good. More pics to follow in a few weeks

This thing is finally starting to come together and the motor fit in nicely. MXbogger from this site did all the work and did a great job. Pics to follow soon. So I bought the pwk carb, do I need the kx500 cable and throttle set up?

thanks

So I have a brand new sh cdi with the dc output so this bike can have lights but no wiring diagram. Anyone have any idea? SH has been slow to respond and not really helpful in any part of this build so far. I'm getting close to getting this done. Mike did a great job

There needs to be alot more leg shown to get answers like that

S/H doesnt make anything..... and stopped selling them due to massive failure rate with them.

I got it all figured out, Jeff at SH really really took care of me! Blinkers/lights here I come

General question regarding rad hoses: since I'll need 90• bends in both the lines going to the head, what are you guys using?

stock or buy a kit from motohose. You can always put 90 outlets in the head as well.

Yea, cutoff the last down turn and your golden....

So I started her up tonight and she ran great but didn't have the chain on. So with regards to the shifter, the bolt comes up from underneath and it hits the frame and the shifter cannot go on with the bolt on as the shaft is slotted. Any ideas? Is there an aftermarket one that would work?

thanks! I'm excited, it sounded so crisp and clean but man what a bitch to kick over. Major compression
