    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    Thanks Yogidabear, wanted to not do something everyone does like race replicas. I guess the Tan and FDE type colours come from my firearm background. There are some coating companies in the US starting to do a lot more interesting and out of the ordinary with Cerakote, most of those would be...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    Decided I am changing it to a drag bike.....haha I know the Coyote Tan might seem like a lot at this stage, but the sticker kit will sort that out. All the Tan is now done, still need to coat the tank tomorrow, hopefully. The trick with the tank is to try and degrease it as much as one can...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    Ha ha, thanks Jakes, the previous owner did blow it up and cracked the cylinder, so he included a brand new cylinder and piston as well already. At 47 and what, 14 years off a motocross bike, I don't think I would need any more power. I do however envy the guys in the US with a lot of...

    Wel die agter kant is natuurlik die Coyote Tan, maar die voor kant is swart, so swart en grys, met van daai frosted non slip stickerkits ook. SVGE Graphics is net om die hoek van my so Grant sal my uitsort, maar dit sal als my Besigheid se logo's en 'n paar van die ouens wat help met enigne bou...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    I have no idea what this build would cost with all the Cerakote if someone had to do it. But I still need to spend quite a bit in parts. But yes, that's why I took it, I actually wasn't looking for a bike...........haha. Well I always look, but never commit.

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    Just a few updates. * Radiators I straightened as much as I could, corrected the fins as much as I could and then coated them in Cerakote Arctic Black, which helps heat dissipate. * Coated a few parts in Midnight Bronze and Graphite Black * The brake lever I coated in Cerakote Super Grip, a...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    I can't wait to ride again, and I am rushing to get as much done as possible before my shop gets busy again. Also have some priorities before I buy all the parts needed, but if I can get it to be where most is done and I just have to build the bike when I get the parts.

    Thanks, seems MotoHut will have a lot of what I want to add.

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    If you really want to keep the heat down, you will flow coat the inside of the pipe with Piston Coat(Heat Barrier), and the outside with Glacier Black. That would be your best bet. I have done this on new aircraft pipes in the past, the only reason I don't really do it, is you can't really...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    Will need to do a new seat cover to match my look though. So I will keep in mind what you have, and when I get to those parts have a proper look, and reach out to you to see if you still have them. Thanks Any idea where I can get nice seat covers? Don't think they will be able to match the...

    Thanks 250X, the ones I have still look good, will see what the carb looks like when I get to it, will do a rebuild kit on it though. Will also rebuild the brake master cylinders. You don't have a right side fork bottom by any chance? The one on there is functional, just looks ragged, and a...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    I am doing this for me for a change, I coat everyone else's stuff and it becomes just another day at the shop, I love what I do so it was time I did something for myself. Done all my guns, but my heart is still with motocross, and it's actually why I started my Cerakote shop, it took a more...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    No, you have bunch of different types of Cerakote, it's what I do for a living. V-136 Piston coat is a heat barrier coating, P-202 Arctic Black is going on the radiators, that is a heat dissipating coating, the Glacier series that go on exhausts keep some heat in, but I am using the run of the...

    Engine done, it's still empty, just a mock up.

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    So some of the work I have done so far, the theme will be Graphite Black, and Cayote Tan, with a darker grey and black on the engine, then some little accents here and there. Also coated the piston and chamber in V-136 Piston Coat as a heat barrier. I see this more of a Revival Build than a...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    Printed some parts for the bike, the ignition cover was a failed print, so will re attempt that. The swingarm plugs and the front brake line guide printed fine. For the plugs though I will have to print them in Tough resin that is a little softer so they can bend a bit, the cover will work in...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    So got the bike on Saturday, stripped it on Sunday and Monday morning took the engine to Jeremy at JSR Dirt Worx on Tuesday afternoon and stripped that. Bike has a brand new cylinder as I believe the previous owner blew it up and the cylinder broke, he replaced that with new piston etc. When we...

    YZ250 2T Build and Cerakote

    So this was totally unplanned, but my good mate Jeremy from JSR Dirt Worx gave be a call on Friday and said he has a bike for R20K, it's not 100% but I have been wanting to do a build some time in 2025. The bike will be coated in Cerakote from top to bottom, then after 14 years off the bike and...

    Yea, the bike seems to look more like "Brad's Bike", but it also seems kak slow at the same time.
