[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 212790, member: 3959"] That is what is happening. I just spent the last 2-3 weeks finding, buying, and waiting for, all the necessary pieces to give it a stock carb. I just got the last of them tonight, threw some fuel into it, and it fired right up and rev's just like it should. This thing is cool, it sounds badass, and it's near complete now. No missing parts except the silencer. HOWEVER, it does appear to have the same upper ticking noise the YZ has, same sound of the video that M33 posted in my YZ thread, although not as bad. But now that I know that sound, I recognize it quicker. Wrist pin bearing? I'll be disassembling and rebuilding this thing as far as availability of parts allows. As it sits, I got 250 into it, and it's damn cool. Plastics are another 280, and a replica black with the Kawi green KX seat cover is another 60-70. I have the O.E. fork wipers and seals ready to be installed. Just need that stock silencer and she's a complete bike. [/QUOTE]
