Well the days of mxing a few times a week and running off weekend after weekend are over. I've sold a lot of my favorites and thought I was semi quad retired but could not resist a nice clean bike for a smoking deal so I picked up a full lsr framed bike locally. It has a dc2 no link and standard travel +2 front all lsr . Fully adj. Custom axis all the way around. Motor has some goodies esr 310 and a hinson quick change. Deals didn't come without issues though. Ended up overhauling the motor, Rebuilding all the shocks, replacing all the wheel and axle bearings, and ill continue to do more. My intentions are to go with more of a dune/trail /play bike as all of my builds have been mx. First think I did along with the overhaul of the motor was a dc lighting conversion, I installed a sweet 6in led bar and have ordered the rest of my parts for the system. I will build a super clean wiring harness this week that should make everything nice and tight. Stay tuned...
Motor just finished assembly this weekend.

Nice looking ride, it's a keeper.

tuned in

Thats a nice lookin ride!

Built this harness today split ac/dc system. Uses 3 pos switch with kill, has inputs for the reg/rec, batt, stator, and switch. Fused outputs for front/rear lights, one hot extra, one switched extra. And of course runs cdi, coil kill through ac system. Still need to label and terminate the connections tomorrow.

Motor finding its home.

Good machine to start with! In for results
-
Thanks Dan, can't wait to finish it should work out good. It is a nice bike to start with. it was just due for a lot of service. My goal is to not get carried away. All the powdercoat is still mint, as well as the aluminum. For now ill leave it alone I've got some good ideas to work with the blue that I have to say I wasn't so excited about.

Looking Good!!
Sweet ride.

clean looking motor man

Looking good so far man, keep it up.

Thanks for the compliments haven't gotten much done in a couple days. Waiting on bolts, I replaced a lot of generic stuff in vital points like arm mounting and motor mounts. Need to build a mount for battery and regulator. I'm also looking for an oversized tank in clear if anyone has one to sell please let me know.

Looks good, like the harness/connectors, headaches savers right there!!

No yz450 engin Man? Lol
-
I've had the yz frame on the line that I considered swapping, but I've been on a hybrid since 2000. I wanted to give this one a fair chance. I still have a walsh ltr to thump on. I think I will enjoy riding a 2 stroke again. I like working on it. Even though my hybrids were never hard to work on its nice just doing something different.
-
Great job on the harness. Most who have tried to re-create the harness have had trouble finding those connectors.
Bike is looking great so far, You had a good foundation to start with
-
Thanks , cdi connectors were no problem, quick google search. I didn't use any of the other oem connections. I changed everything to deutch. A far superior weather tight connector. I was slightly ahead though being that I wire cars daily... all the best materials were at my disposal. I did use oem color codes except I had to switch from black/red to red/black... didn't have that one. I rewired the stator for the dc conversion but put all new wiring in to clean it up. This was actually what would have been junk all the wires were severed looked like it was caught in a chain. Came out of my spare parts, brought it back to life [ATTACH=CONFIG]2451[/ATTACH]
-
very nice job !! one idea but its kinda late as the connectors are already on, but brady makes some heat shrink wire markeres instead of using the wraps.
they look very clean and last a long time
were did you find the cdi connector? what brand is it, more then likely the rest of the oem connectors are the same make, just for future reference
never mind after looking closer those are heat shrinks...I LIKE IT!!!

Sorry I haven't checked in awhile ill update it. This bike didn't get my normal attention as it was a very budget minded project but its nearly finished. I still did a ton of work just no p.c. being that it was nearly mint. Ill re up when I'm on a normal p.c. but for now I just finished a set of shrouds. The radiator was about 2in wider then stock so the prm shrouds with spacers wasn't my thing.(http://forums.trx250r.org/vbulletin_imports/486_189_2017-04-18_9914.jpg)

Rebuilt the motor top to bottom, replaced all the bearings throughout the chassis, installed rpm front hubs, went through all the shocks and corrected the geometry for the chassis, put new seal heads and fluid in them, built a new wiring harness and dc converted the stator, new chain and sprockets, cables. Rebuilt master cylinder, new rear bumper, wheels & tires, radiator shrouds. (http://forums.trx250r.org/vbulletin_imports/486_193_2017-04-18_877.jpg)Still need graphics, seat cover, ims oversized tank, maybe a duncan bumper.

Any updates Mike?

I haven't done much I ditched, the esr 9 pipe went to a 03 paul turner race. Put in a high compression dome, went to a 38a/s instead of 39 pwk. Ive spent alot of time working out tuning and it runs pretty strong now. Had a good weekend at glamis a couple weeks ago. Season is almost over here so maybe ill do more over summer but I doubt it. Its not flashy but its a very solid ride and that was my main focus. I will get a 4gal ims at some point and probably graphics if I can come up with something I like. Its difficult not to want to buy stuff for it but it really doesn't "need" anything, so I am content.

dc converted the stator
what are you running that you needed dc?
-
Led light. My harness also has extra leads you could run a gps, tach, cell charger...whatever. its really just dc charging a battery to maintain. Obviously system is still a.c. cdi.

was the led lights more then the rectifier could handle? I thought they were small wattage

is a battery needed for LED light?
-
Yes I'm using a ballistic 4 cell. http://www.ballisticparts.com/products/batteries/4cell.php. I used my hi/lo as a second turn on for a power lead so i can run just the led on the bike or I can also use the second setting to power both a helmet light and the one mounted on the bike. You could use a smaller battery as long as its 12volt and provides enough amperage. Since it doesn't pull a huge amp draw like an electric starter options are pretty open.

[MENTION=1]spiritaces[/MENTION] and [MENTION=87]havinnoj[/MENTION] i am unable to follow the attachment links in this thread, it says to contact you.
Nevermind, i just realized they were all pre-site failure, forgot this post.
