locogato11283 Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 craptor or ds650 will need the least modification. Quote

rdepiano12 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Report Posted December 18, 2006 how much work would it take to fit it in a warrior frame? i can score a running warrior for 375.00 and it has title Quote
gipperz Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 (edited) have you ever done this? my dad keeps saying just buy a yfz 450, and i dont want to have the same old 4 poke like everyone else, i want something diffrent, let me know if you have any tips. Yes Loco has, I've seen his work and its top notch. He would be the guy I would talk to. He probably could give you some ideas.But then again purchasing a yfz450 would handle alot better, need to ask yourself what you really gonna use it for. Trail riding yfz450, a highbred for drag racing or hill shooting. Edited December 18, 2006 by gipperz Quote
locogato11283 Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 yes ive done it. 600rr motor in raptor frame. yfz450 frame is not nearly tall enough to fit the motor and the EFI without cutting the frame damn near in half or building your own EFI system.. the raptor is gonna be the easiest one to use. i dont run EFI on mine and its still a tight fit..

I'm probably coming off as a pest, but your work amazes me it looks so clean. Quote

I would think you would be looking for some thing with desent suspension? Heck if your going the cheap route just find you a non running 80's yamaha Moto 4 :yelrotflmao: Quote
locogato11283 Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 built the gas tank myself... this is how i switched overto carbs..had to build an ignition system from scratch. i use a dyna 2000 ignition and i had to have the pieces made to attach to the crank... frame after modding mock up.

rdepiano12 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Report Posted December 18, 2006 the motor is already carb'd, and why did you have to change the ignition? how much work was it to do the frame? Quote
Devans Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 freakin sweet... I want to see that thing run! Sumthin different.. Quote
FasterThanU90 Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 damn dude that is pretty bad to the bone all down to the custom pipes im lovin itd be sick to have the intake come out by the front end or sumthin, nice job :thumbsup: Quote

Thats the cleanest looking Craptor ive seen lol.Thing is seriously Sick.Congrats man Quote
locogato11283 Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 the motor is already carb'd, and why did you have to change the ignition? how much work was it to do the frame? i changed it because i did away with all the stock EFI and electronics.. went with the carbs so i had to make an ignition work. it was kinda a pain in the ass havin to figure out the best way to do it. the frame wasnt too bad. the lower frame rails came out, then i set the motor in and built the lower rails back around the motor..turned out pretty nice.
