Here is another project im working on. I like things to match so this LRD frame will have a LED engine. Since the frame is lightweight and needs some work ive decided to keep it a duner. For now i need to strip the frame and get it fixed and im going with a all black theme. Here are some pics of some of the progress i got done today.
This first pic is what it looks like now but i started to take things apart. The parts on the frame will not be used and will be saved for a desert build in the future.
-
Took out my spare bottom end and found that the lower case saver mount was cracked. Dont really know if i should be pissed or not because i plan on running a 15 tooth sprocket with no case saver anyway. I took the stock ignition and the clutch out. No need for that stuff anymore since they will be replaced with some real goodies. Im sending this to LED tomorrow and will be including a 2001 cr250 stator and flywheel with esr adaptor plate, hinson clutch basket/plates with slingshot, esr reeds and some gary holland billet shift forks.

I'm excited to see this build come to fruition. Especially to see how that 363 runs.
What pipe are you going with?

Subscribing to this one!

im going with a raw 350g. I told Arlan i wanted something fast with a regular mount pipe because people wont race me with a oof pipe. They get intimidated lol

You will be missed, brother. :apologetic:

I think this is the only time i came in contact with Barry. My impression of him was that he was a good guy from his choice of words on the chat box a couple days ago, anyway R I P bro

Got some stuff done yesterday and today. Yesterday i striped the chassis bare and got it ready to ship out but before i did that i took it to work and weighed it so you all can see what a LRD attitude chassis weighs
-
^^^ if you cant see it or are looking at it on your phone it weighs 34 lbs.

You won't want an OOF pipe if there's any tree shots where you ride anyway? Are there any trees where you ride?? Oregon has these cool ass treeshots where you ride down in between the trees have a very and when I when I say very small area for error when turning around thats what I mean if you're off a couple inches on some of them into the bushes you will go!!! and with an OOF pipe you'd never be able to get turned around on alot of them!! But if you don't have any tree shots don't worry about it. Unless u plan on coming to Oregon?
Thanks Higgy
-
Either way this is gonna be a sick build, you're going the same route that I went with the LRD frame and LED motor! I'm digging it bro!! Should turn out sweet!!!
Thanks Higgy

no trees in el paso only bushes, tumble weeds and mesquites with thorns about an inch long. If you fall in one of those its like falling in a roll of barbed wire lol. I dont have any real updates for this as i told arlan to take his time because i dont have a good LRD chassis for it anyway. He got my cylinder back from Milenium and took my bottom end apart and found one of my transmission shafts was bad so he has one on order.

Sweet how LED hooked you up with the custom engraving. Is beautiful!!!!
-
Looks good Mando
-
thanks guys. Arlan and Eddie love working with each other so i decided to support both of them with as much as i could. I plan on using as much ESR billet parts for this build
-
Looks great bet she is gonna haul!
-
raw cylinder does not match black bottom end fail.gif
;)
-

Update: ok so ive only had this bad bich for a little over a week and just realized she is high maintenance. I havent even touched her yet and shes already asking me for an oil rub.

Iv heard olive oil helps :rofl:
-
Any oil work. Even castro 927. Rem oil for cleaning guns really brings out the colors...
-
That's one hell of an engine. Looks awesome. Can't wait to see the finished product
-
Thanks for the compliments fellas but unfortunately im planning on using this arens frame for now. My mind is still set on a all flat black with carbon fiber parts. Would like to redo it later with a LRD black anodized frame if i can find one. Took this quik pic before i hung it up on the roof as i have no room in my garage for all these projects im working on.

Help me beat up on Arlan for some stainless pipes. I was fairly close to talking him into it. I have the raw pipe too. They are fairly easy to care for, a little scotch brute and oil, but it does lose to heat tells, which are the sexy part of a raw pipe, in my opinion. Stainless would solve it.
What happened to the LRD frame? I thought you had one.
Best regards

ive thought of clear coating the pipe before i use it so maybe it can keep its colors. Dont know if hi temp clear paint or powder coat clear will work.
I still have my LRD frame but i let a buddy borrow it and hes going to get it fixed for me. While he was using it he noticed it cracked a little more so thats one reason i dont want to run that frame with this motor. Other reason is i plan on doing everything black so it would be stupid to powder over my chrome subframe. I tried trading subframes with Higgy but they were not interchangable.
-
I had my bare HPR zilla pipe high temp clear coated before I used it. But it is rusting underneath the clear somehow? Didn't work out for me but maybe it will work out for you......but you can't beat the look of a bare pipe!!
-
LED had a shop put hi temp clear on one of their pipes. Never heard how it worked out. I'll keep begging for a stainless.

looks good!! God bless the quick change
thanks, yea i really like the quik change. this is the first time i take it off and found out its double o-ringed.
-
i think i like this cover better than the Hinson style cuz right now i have 3 stripped bolts on my CT cover. The cover is real tight i dont see it leaking easily. i started hitting it with a rubber hammer then i gently pried it off with a screwdriver and my fingers
-
thats good,,,,, may have to buy one for my new motor build??? HAHa
Jon I have one and one of Ryan's 89 water pump shaft I may let go.
-
Got this back from powder coater couple days ago. LRD attitude frame, 89 length ROLL swingarm, ROLL a-arms and wishbone powdered kawasaki green.
-
Green machine !
-
Powder looks nice. Running chrome upper a-arms? Can't wait to see this one buttoned up.

Thanks wrench i was going for BAD but still having trouble picking parts lol
As far as HP im not sure...this engine build was expensive n i didnt want to spend another 500 on dyno time. Arlan built it to his high HP high rev specs though.

Got some hardware from Roll

Love the way Doug roll has them anodized. I'm going to be rebuilding mine soon with new too. Can't wait.

Gorgeous.. but I hope you didn't pay through the nose direct from Roll. Those Garlock bushings can be bought for half of what Roll wants!
