TADA!!!!! :smirk::banana::cheers::busted::crazy: This ting is my Pride n joy, I poured my heart, soul, time, love, and $$$ into it, I absalutely love how it turned out, this entire build cost me $1,867.84 (US)
(includeing the purches of the bike its self, so 400 for the bike, and 1,467.84 in rebuild/mods ) :D
But most of all, the Experience and Knowledge i gained is Priceless.

I have to give big props to my friends who helped me w/ this build once again,

Kyle (Bobkyle2) Thanks for being there and helping me trough the incredible messes i got my self into bro, really aprecheate it.

Em, (Emily) Thank you for telling me that the weep hole is ment to be there before i JB welded it shut... LOL and all the help/ideas u gave me.

Brandon, (Rm125Dude) Same for you bro, Thanks for the time and help u gave me during this build,


Well, There it is!, now what do u think? :ride:



(the thread is blown up w/ pics... opps, im sorry but when the project is this big i couldnt narrow it down, wanted to show how much has really been done so u can appreciate it.. but really this isnt even the half of the stuff i did to it however i think u get the point lol. :banana: :ride:)
 
Here is the vid of me starting the bike and walk around/rev, the bike was cold and on choke, this vid is a month or two old. so the carb wasnt adjusted its idleing high and on choke, it sounds much better currntly then in the vid, ALSO the only other differnce from the video is that i didnt have my sunline shift lever, zeta racing engine plugs or painted the chain guard, wich as u can see from pics is more current.

 
That rebuild should be in its on thread as people won't look for it in here. Care if I move it for you?

Your right, I didn't think of that. Thanks again! :ride: In that case, more pics will be on the way! :rocker:
 
that may be a yz426 but it has a wr426 tank and seat on it. I have the proper yzf tank if you want it.
the wr tank and seat give the bike a really funky ergo on the 99-02 wr's.
