Almost looks like a WR.

Looks great..........clean, tidy, and ready to explore.

How did you get a licence plate for it? I hear AZ is fairly easy. Just walk in and say "I give you money, you give me plate!" (Even though it's for a riding lawn mower with a beer keg and tap)

Well that is how i turned my YZ motocross bike into a dual sport and give a special thanks to Doc and Mossycreek with out them i would still be riding a motorcross bike instead of a now dual sport.

Well here all you do is pass emissions and go to the dmv and they give you a plate.

Do they give you a sheet of the emissions results and guidelines? Or just PASS/FAIL?

No title? No other tests?

Clew540 · 03-19-2011, 07:06 PM

Here you have to have title and yes they do give a sheet stateing you passed.

Now you need to add a 2003 YZ450 exhaust cam for easier starting. WORTH the $140!!! One kick, easy push, she always starts.

I love my manual decomp i always now when she will start one kick everytime :) And it prevents other from starting it if they dont know anything about the bike.

Looks great! What a fun bike, a friend of mine has one like this. The right rear turn signal will probably melt... but who cares when you have a bike as fun as this to ride.

dont think so the exhaust has been cut down so i am thinking there is plenty of cool down time before the exhaust hits the turn signal

Looks good.... Can I do that to my 1977 Yamaha XT500 and get rid of the 6V system?

I have my de-comp lever mounted the same... I love it that way.

You made you a bike that you can have a blast on and nothing is a mystery to you about it. Gots to love that....
