Yes, first year of liquid cooling bike, first and only year of the left hand kick, and second year of the pro link rear shock.

No, i don't race anymore. Found this bike and just figured "what the hell" and did a restore on it. My next project i am starting on is going to be a harder one. I have a 1986 TY350 in pieces.

Finding pieces for this bike is going to be a bitch!!!!

Now that's ambitious. My problem is ADD. I don't have the focus for project like that. Wish I did.

Up date, I started to work on the TY and had a guy call me from Texas and offered me a shit load of money for it. So it went down to Texas.

Here is the final pictures of the CR
