Have been looking forward to this for a long time.
Pretty much committed to the project at this point!

Hey,
Mine kind'a looked like that when I bought it too! Well except my engine was in a few boxes of it's own...
Just like Home Depot... You can do it, We can help!

Flyingfitz, looks like quite a job ahead. One benefit is that you can do everything right from the get go and you will have an awesome looking and dead reliable machine to enjoy. Keep us posted of your progress with lots of details and pics. B.O.

Nice project. Keep us posted on the progress. Is that a YZ426F on the trailer?
flyingfitz:
Thanks for the support. Dropped off the frame, subframe, swing arm and misc hardware at the powdercoater today. Will post periodic updates.
Have purchased bearings for front and rear wheels, swing arm, shock linkage, rear shock upper and lower, steering neck, and bushings and seals for the front fork. That should tighten it up for another 15 years!
You have a keen eye. It is a 2001 WR426. Gotta have that kickstand for chasing my 9 year old around the woods! I'm looking for a reasonably priced kickstand for the K-5. Would like a bolt on, but do not want to spend 150 at moto billet. Looking for something designed like the WR.
