Well its pretty much setup now. Just waiting for the IMS tank.. I didnt want the nutbuster on the clarke.
Had to mount the hot start back on the left side, was getting pulled sometimes on full lock right turns.

Went riding.. Ran out of gas, took 4 beercan fulls to get me back. The IMS should be just right.
Highway cruising was nice. First time riding extended at 60mph. 5000RPM, very relaxed.

Just gives them another reason to pull me over... Already got enough issues with cops on this bike as it is

I bet those were PBR 12 ouncers and I know who carried them. I see him checking out yer WR above. How far did you get on 2.1 gallons? 4 beers is 0.38 gallons BTW.

WV looks like Central Wash with the clear cuts, powerline ROW, sun, and deciduous trees. You had me fooled until I saw Lake Cavanaugh.

yep you got it, HH brew . I don't remember how far I got.. I'd say 0.5g shy of two half day trail rides?

the bike is pretty much finished.

Clark 3.6g tank on, natural color. I was pretty set on the IMS but I went back and looked at DustDogg's pictures and after riding with HH I decided against it for the bigger, clear, Clarke. I am very happy with it!





I routed the gas line up behind the tank flap, but I am not sure about it.. how do you guys have yours routed?




I might get a rear disc brake shark fin, but I don't know if I need it... should I bother?
Otherwise... it's pretty much just how I want it

these were from today.. I got home from riding and the tank was there

rear tusk rotors are only $60 each.

the stock petcock has internal filter so why run second?

tell me more about those mad max handguards.

yeah that's kind of what I was thinking.

It filters better? I didn't have a long enough fuel line.. used it to connect two lines together. Maybe I'll run the petcock backwards

I cut up 5 gallon buckets. don't forget the drowning baby

IDK if it filter better but it does filter. big tanks are a PIA for fuel lines I know.

The hot ticket for routing your fuel line is to replace your stock petcock with one from a steel framed WR. It is a direct swap and as long as you buy one for the WR and NOT the YZ you will keep the reserve function. The reason to use this petcock is that the fuel line is connected on the opposite side and keeps the fuel line from having to wrap around as you have found. Don't you just love factory parts solving problems like this?

ok thanks Dustdogg.

went riding yesterday

So I tried out the 07 YZF muffler. My favorite for sure. Sounds really awesome, and probably the quietest of the bunch to boot. The pipe diameter is larger than the Leo Vince w/ silent insert (without insert Leo Vince is quite a bit louder). It is also larger than the 08 YZF W/ PMB end cap. Better power than the 08 YZF with the PMB on it, probably close to the Leo Vince without the silent insert. I reversed the petcock and made a straight shot with the fuel line to the carb, it is actually really easy to spin the petcock handle.










Added a spark arrestor to the 07 YZF pipe to be legal





Got the new clutch cover on too. I think it added only about 150ml according to my measurements, but it seems a lot stronger than the stocker. Looks better too

What a great thread, well done!
