Very cool.  Do you still have it?  Should provide more details about the bike.

Sold it to a buddy, it traded hands a few times over the years. Then it popped up in Indiana for sale back in the winter. Jerry White knows about but I never heard if it sold.

this quad was flat fast for its time. I could spank all the 265 Rs but had trouble with the bigger motors. A buddy had a Sparks PV265, I could eat his ass up straight but he could get thru a turn better.

I wonder what kind of shape it is in.  Id love to see Jerry get a YZ hybrid.  We will see what he can do with one when he finishes mine, it should be sick when done!

Do you remember what linkage was on it?  Also, what year linkage, and swingarm bearings were used?

this style frame uses a 98 Yamaha yz400 linkage. I think a 99 will work but a 2000 up yz426 won't. Swingarm bearing in the front use the yz400 hardware. Baldwin sells a special swingarm bolt that fit the chassis better than the stock Yamaha - get one from Mark or the pivot hole with egg shape.
