Thank you. My husband Michael would watch Trey tear up the expert class in the late 70's while he was stationed at Tinker. Michael raced the open amateur class.

Hi there! Thank you for your kind comments! The bike in the video is a 1979 YZ250. It has an IT250 cylinder. The frame and ending serial number starts with 2X4-

🤣🤣🤣

Yes! A plate was welded on the rear of the tank and a mounting tab added to the frame to raise the rear of the tank 4”. Hand hammered coves. That I you for your kind comments about the bike. If you like this one, look up Medusa on my Instagram. @craigjackson512

No. It is a 1988 model engine. We also used a 1988 rear wheel.

Awesome!!! Build it and have lots of fun riding it! I love this bike!

YZF600R. It is taller than stock. I had to cut the top mount point off of the frame and move it from the bottom to the top of the cross bar of the frame. Other than that, it bolts right in.

@@jackson4tube ok,merci beaucoup

Yes. On the frame inside the neck, take the top bearing race out. Leave the bottom bearing brace in place. It will hold the new bottom bearings in plae.

@@jackson4tube ok, thank you very much for the info

Merci Bruno! c'est d'une GSXR 650 2006

@@jackson4tube àh ok merci des modifs a prévoir pour la potence ,dimension des roulements etc ?

650 cc ?

désolé, c'est en anglais GSXR to CX500 steering stem made by CognitoMoto.com plus new bearings. All balls 99-3512-5 on the bottom of the stem. 99-3541-5 on the top of the stem. Press out the old stem using a 33mm socket to support the lower triple directly under the stem. Press in the new stem using a 1.5" steel pipe to support the lower triple directly under the stem.

CBR600RR rear tail light with integrated turn signals - eBay - $17.09

Yo no lo necesito! Está adiós!

Awesome!! Have you made progress on your build?

Hi Eric! Thank you for the positive comment! I build my own exhausts. These are 1.5" outside diameter with a 1.5 to 2" transition as the tip under the engine. I also tune the exhaust for sound and to prevent the reversion wave from going back up into the exhaust port and affecting the power.

Hi. The rider is 6' tall. I am 5'10" tall. I am nicely "bent knee-ed" when sitting still. The GSXR 600 front end dropped the front of the bike by about 4". The rear has a new, longer, YZF600R rear shock, but I moved the upper mount point to be about the stock hight. The rear subframe was lifted in the front by about 2" and in the rear by about 4" so that it matches the angle of the tank lines. Depending on your hight, you could adjust the front and rear hight to meet your needs. Hope this helps! Build it anyway!!

Thank you sir! I appreciate your comment! The exhaust was a lot of fun to make. It took a lot longer than I expected though. Took me two full days mock it up, tack weld it, polish it and then weld it all up. The final product is very satisfying!

The tank is from a Yamaha XS750. It is not a direct fit. It is modified to fit over the front 2 engine mounts. It requires quite a bit cutting and brazing.

Thanks where can i get a tail section and the seat. If you have any info i can use it. Thanks in advance.

I made all of that from scratch. I cut off the original subframe and built new by hand.

jackson4tube thank you

Sorry man. I just saw your comment with questions… The only change I made from the stock (or whatever settings were already done to the carbs when I purchased the basket case of a bike for $300) was to set the Pilots to 2.5 turns out. And cleaned all the crap out of the carbs of course...

Yes. They are very similar. The engines are almost identical on the exterior. The GL650 has a completely different frame and rear suspension configuration.

There are lots of pictures of the build on this page. Near the bottom there is a pic of the rear showing the shock mount and the cones. The rear upper shock mount is the standard mount, just cut off and remounted to the top of the cross bar. develigence.com/Hamilton12Customs/GT650R/index.html

Hi Emma! Thank you for the comment. I love it too!

Yes I do. All the pictures of this build are here: develigence.com/Hamilton12Customs/GT650R/index.html If you need more pics or better info, let me know. Glad to help.

thank u man, nice job, incredible!!!, my bike have almost serial number just the last ones is 508, where u put the batery and cooling recipient?? thanks

Thank you sir! I appreciate your comments. The battery is under the frame just behind the exhaust pipes. It’s where the center stand used to be. I removed the coolant overflow bottle and just ran a new tube down beside the radiator where the clutch cable goes down.

@@jackson4tube it is very generous of you to give out this information. I have a Silverwing that I want to turn into a cafe racer, you done a beautiful job.

It is a Yamaha YZF600R rear shock. I cut off the stock top shock mount from the cross brace and moved it to the top of the brace and repelled it so the shock would fit and have the correct ride hight.

and you were still able to fit air filters in there?

Yes. 2 cone shaped pod filters.

I built the seat pan from steel. Glued on foam. Shaved it down to the shape I wanted. Then drew lines on the foam where I wanted the stitching. Then took it to a seat cover guy to make the seat cover look like the line drawing.

Thanks man! What can you tell me about that rear seat setup? Looking right!

Here is a link to my last GL500 project... this time around in addition to the under bike battery box I’m thinking of making a shallow tray under the seat ... th-cam.com/video/7HVOiD7_KXU/w-d-xo.html

Hi! Thank you for the comment! The rear seat and tail are all hand made. I built the stainless steel seat pan, then glued down the foam. Shaped the foam to fit the profile I was looking for. Drew a line drawing of the stitch pattern on the foam. Took the seat to my leather upholsterer. The tail is stainless steel, sanded with 60 grit, then clear coated. Under the tail is a CBR600RR tail light with integrated turn signals. Under the seat and exposed so you can see it from the rear view of the bike is the original voltage regulator, painted black and mounted with stainless steel screws.

jackson4tube really clean work! What is that tank off of if you don’t mind me asking? Doesn’t look like the common cx500d tanks

Thanks man! It rides just as good as it looks too! The tank is from a Yamaha XS750. Had to modify the bottom pretty heavily to fit around the frame though. But, it looks fantastic, IMHO. It is much narrower than stock and has similar coves to the CX500 tank. Makes it look like a skinny bike with a wide motor.

Hi mikeyhanch0 - I get the front ends from guys I know that part out bikes and from craigslist. Just negotiate hard for a good deal. The rear end: If you mean the seat and rear fender, I made that myself out of steel tubing and sheet metal. If you mean the swingarm and suspension, the swing arm is stock, but the shock is from a YZF600R. I cut the stock rear shock mount off and moved it to the top of the cross bar that it was mounted to so the longer YZF600R shock would fit.

Thanks man! The ride is even Better! She is very confident through the twisty back roads.
