    I must say there is nothing like firing up your newly assembled motor for the first time!! After a brief flooding issue and a bruised ankle (why wasnt I wearing boots?) Its Alive!! Im not gonna lie........ it was a pain to get fired up lol. (A few weeks ago bretmd94 came over and picked up my carb and was messing with it- I swear.) I will have completed pics soon with more details!

    Well its done for (for now)! I couldn't have done it without this site and all its awesome technical advice! Thanks guys! Not to get all corny on you but I also wanted to mention how amazing my wife has been with helping/putting up with me during this project! She lets me wash parts in the sink, assemble stuff on the coffee table, make a mess in the living room- I am lucky! I think she might even like three wheelers but just wont admit it I better get my YFZ in top shape for her to ride So here it is now- I was too lazy to swap tires Some old school gear aquired along the way! The sweater is from 1986 (still has tags), helmet is Bell MOTO-4. I still need to get my hands on all the OEM stuff but I'm still pleased with how it turned out. I cant wait to get my other pipe restored and get rid of this DG.

    It turned out great. You and your wife should be proud. There is no better bonding time with the wife than both of you on your knees together searching for that darned c clip that flew across the garage.. Been there done that.
    Rides:
    1986 ATC250R (sectional pipe and Klemm Research silencer)
    1986 ATC250R (Desert Bike, WAX-ON seat, Dual Cibie lights, Steering Stabilizer)
    1979 ATC110 (Bandito frame and forks, Turbo wheels, disc braked)
    1982 ATC70 (Lifan manual 125)
    1987 LT80 (piped, widened)

    My heart is thumping for real. What a beautiful Tecate. Your detail is amazing and it even looks like a hellacious runner. Congratulations and great work. Makes me proud to own a Kawasaki.
    83' 200x (son's). 85' 200 auto-x & 85' 125m (daughters). 84' Tecate(?). 85' KXT Tecate (mine!, mine!, mine!.)+ some others but don't feel like typing them in.
