We're back in A1 in the year 2000. Yamaha of Troy opens the bike and this wheel. It's eye-catching, jaw-dropping. The themed build is complete. It's not a replica, as you can see, and it has a black background on a 250 (too heavy for a 125), but it's still pretty cool. I plan to test it at Daytona next year. Some of the specs are below. Also, a big thanks to Chris Banner for saving the bike and doing most of the assembly, and to Rusty at RNB for most of the parts to put it together. Engine
Mototech cylinder head
Boyesen radiator
PC Works pipe (a rare one that looks like a CR500)
Stinger PC Shorty
C12 fuel
Suspension
SSS '06 fork with matching shock
GYTR '05-specific upper tie rod to OEM lower tie rod
HDR Pete Payne springs and valves
Seat made by Ryan Blake to replicate the YOT team
Some clever bits include the Renthal Gold Fat bars from Europe, as they're sold in the US. They match the DID Gold rims perfectly.
Batfly rotors with the rear end lowered 5mm to fit the caliper, as they're not compatible with steel ones.
Nice details throughout, even the white safety bar from Phoenix Handlebars.
