[KASEY]

i have been working on this for a long while between other projects. this is an 05 WR450F conversion, this is the theme i am using 85 yz250 i have always loved this year and colors. i didnt take any pictures before i got a good start on this build ..

247752

this is the frame with a 4 point lonestar subframe found a nice aftermarket +2 swingarm to give it a more custom look also..

247754

found an affordable elka rear shock to smooth out the bumps ,,

247755

[KASEY]

stayed true to the theme only painted the upper triple clamp,, i have no idea what the reasoning was on that one,,,,

247756

[KASEY]

M3 MOTORSPORTS came out with these bad to the bone sprocket guard,, so i had to have one,,, thing is coming together very nice,, also cheetah tires all the way around on this one,,, wrapped around a new set of DWT wheels with a fresh gold anodize coating, tmdesignworks chain guide and a special front chail slider built by the imfamous milkman from plan"B" racing

Looking real good! I definitely dig the 85 YZ theme. I'm a big fan of the movie "The DirtBike Kid" and always wanted the 85 yz! That sprocket guard is bad azz.

[El Camexican]

I like it, I like it a lot.

[jakep53]

Thats looking awesome it reminds me of the 86 tri z aswell very nice work!! cheetah needs to hurry up and get more of those tires so i can buy some

[schlepp29]

The dirt bike kid is awesome. It's looking damn good so far. 85 through 87 was an awesome era for the yz

[KASEY]

blueline graphics ALL THE WAY FOR THE WIN!!!! BRUCE went all the way for a homerun on the graphics,,, this is going to be so badass ,,,,,,,,,,

[schlepp29]

Now your wife and you definitely have something to be thankful for this year, looking real good

[Red Rider]

stayed true to the theme only painted the upper triple clamp,...Looking good Kasey. To truly stay true to the theme, it really needs a silver swingarm with “MONO CROSS” decals.

[KASEY]

YEP, i stayed with red,, and the fork guards have to be silver,,, a few minor changes is all i am doing,,,, bruce did a great job on the graphics,,, its all going to be badass when its done....

[250rAL]

Turned out very nice!

[El Camexican]

Like the red on white!!!

[rdlsz24]

Wow very nice!

How much money would you say you put into one of these builds, and what percent of the work do you do yourself? I would love to do one one day.

Rob

[taiterator]

WOW....... You really knocked it out of the park!! I have always loved your creations. Congrats on another great build!

[kiser]

That's perdy! Very nice job!

[KASEY]

i do 100% of the work on my builds, this trike with all the new parts will have a $5000 pretty much eaten up,,,, virtually nothing is used,,,

[3Z with Fangs!]

Very cool, I wish I had that talent!
