[hothatch85]

Got the motor back! started reassembly




still waiting on the radiator kit and other goodies to finish this but its so awesome finally seeing it come together!

I like those rear peg a lot, sets who makes them?

[hothatch85]

FLP makes the rearsets

[curtis966]

Awesome thanks. might have to snag up a set of those for my metruck build. Btw sweet looking ruck glad you went 2t! Tired of all the gy6 builds

Part out the Met. Worth more in parts! The front frame alone (if VIN'd and titled) is worth double what you paid for the entire scoot

[hothatch85]

The met is a friends that I'm helping him build. If it was mine I'd part it. It's not titled and the vin has been ground off :/

After finishing the spree I knew I needed a 2t heart for this. This should be perfect for this bike! The gy6 is so d*** heavy and I didnt like the added weight on the left side from the motor being offset for the fatty. gy6 is over rated and cheap

[TinyElvis]

Like anything, the GY6 with tons of work and tuning can be a reliable monster. I've rode some beasts! get a very well built 232, and you'll poo yourself it's soooo fast! A whole other monster.
I've fallen in love with the 2t

Greetings:

You sure that tire's seated at the bead, Hatch? Looks to me like you could put a finger between rubber and rim.

[hothatch85]

the tire is seated, i dont know why the pictures make it look like that

i just checked tracking this morning. it went from portland to new jersey? uhhh lol says it should be here tomorrow so we'll see! im planning on taking the bike to a friends to fab up some mounts for the radiator this weekend as long as it gets here.

[hothatch85]

Got the radiator kit from G9 saturday! With the help of a friend we got the mounts whipped up and i started running the water lines, had to get a little creative with the cylinder head line since the angle will change drastically with the air ride. two 90s and a little loop solved that. Getting closer!!

Crunch time, gotta have this thing ready by friday for a local bike show over the weekend.

i swapped my compressor in front of the mount which allowed me to run a rear facing carb. that 28mm polini looks so gnarly in front of that tire. cant wait to get the big evo filter!



still gotta clean up the loose wires but im filling up this space quickly! currently working on the fuel pump and coil mount right now. i should have that finished up and the lines ran tonight.

[hothatch85]

Coil and fuel pump brackets made, fuel lines ran. still gotta test to make sure it flows correctly.

after i got the coil hooked up i tested for spark and i got it!! thank goodness i wired this correctly

got the waterpump mounted and the rest of the water lines mocked up. Going to pull the freshly made brackets and shoot them black, wrap the harness in nice loom and final assembly

gonna make this bike show this weekend!!

[DirtyE]

Is that an R1400?

[hothatch85]

Made the bike show this weekend and ended up taking home second, this stock YSR50 took home first. just need a throttle cable really and i can fire this!

Dirty, its the stage6 RT exhaust
