Getting serious with TSR
KX450f Clutch cover with the filler neck for an adapted KX500.
Troy is making them without the filler neck.

That's really nice!  The site bowl is a nice touch as well!

I've been saving up some Ti over the last few years for a special build...
Now's the time to deploy it  8-)

Thank you FMF for the muffler...
I will take great care of it after I cut it up a bit   :-o
This will really accent my custom Growler Racing pipe  8-)

I really like the magnesium color that I've seen the brake calipers done in.  Have you tried any of that?

I wish Ecklund would get off his duff and send you some parts.  I want to see this dude ripping up some dirt.

Ok... Finally, it's ready for some touch up welds, then off to sandblast, and finally Powder coat..
Unimpressive to say the least but it's a big step forward..

You guys did a really nice job of that frame.  You wouldn't know it was even modified.

Thanks... Yeah, that was the goal.. to come as close as we could to a factory looking frame.
Which is why I used 450 frame rails on the 250 chassis and stock engine mounts.
It was a pain to dial it all in but why not?
It's going up against Adam Millar (Roostius) and you know he is relishing the idea of destroying me  :lol:
So I'll do what I can and call it good...
