Looks good

AZ200cc · 06-19-2009, 01:27 AM

Thanks Jim, I am getting to that point where little stuff is holding me up....I could finish this thing in an hour with all the right stuff :? And an unlimited Visa card

AZ200cc · 06-20-2009, 12:14 AM

AARRRRGH, I am never ordering from Bike Bandit unless it is a last resort.....Three days just for them to recieve the parts and three days to get them to me.......Wish I had known that before I would have gone to a Honda dealer and had it in one day.

BIke bandit is good, but their shipping is slow. I found that out the hard way one time.

Yup kinda misleading about the shipping, And after that some guy posted a set of plastics on ebay front fender rear fender sidepanel and boots :x I hope I win the bid on those but I am still stuck with the fender from Bandit unless they will swap it for a number plate.

That bike looks fantastic! Great job so far! Is that a TTR I see in the background on one of those pics? I just bought a TTR 125. Again, great job.

Thanks Red, I appreciate that

Just put on the front fender today looks much better, Still need a rear fender and the Parts Kato is sending.

Yup TTR90 too big for my daughter but it's pretty much brand new....The owner letme bring it home to size her up and now he don't seem to want it back

So I told him I painted it pink and and put a for sale sign on it 8) My buddy has two TTR125's They are fun little bikes. Sound good with an exhaust mod also. They're in my ride report I posted.

TurboT · 06-25-2009, 03:02 AM

Damn why can't I find a guy who doesn't want a little Yamaha back???

You're doing a great job as always I enjoy the progress reports!

AZ200cc · 06-25-2009, 12:58 PM

I wish he would pick it up, It's taking up space

It sat for three years and I cleaned the tank out and got it running for him, I won't take the carb apart though because it's not mine 8) Can't ride it because the rear tube is shot. Oh well I have an expensive boat anchor until he picks it up

Thanks for the kind words, I am close on this bike...SO CLOSE :(
I need parts :?

AZ200cc · 06-27-2009, 08:04 PM

Well very small update, I got a few parts mostly missing nuts and bolts but I did get a front fender

I need parts WAAAAAAAAAAAA

katoranger · 06-27-2009, 08:07 PM

Suppose to get them tomorrow. I will mail them out ASAP.

Bike looks new now.

AZ200cc · 06-27-2009, 09:04 PM

Thanks Kato, The hard part has been the rear rim and hub....Those Ebay guys are fracking nuts

100 bucks lol............Tires will not be cheap either I assume 100 bucks or so. That's why I plan to do the front only.
I already have a lady who wants to learn how to ride on it :wink: Maybe I'll get me wifey also

I do need to set the cam chain tension..New to that but it seems pretty straight forward.

katoranger · 06-27-2009, 09:12 PM

These are pretty cheap tires. Should be good enough for occasional light riding.

I forgot about cheng shin, Dang a 14 dollar tire find would be awesome

katoranger · 06-28-2009, 02:24 PM

Got your parts at my house. Will send them out tomorrow.
