Re: New yz490 project

Very cool project! Old dirtbikes are a blast, especially 2 strokes around 500cc. Better hang on when you twist that throttle!

Plans? going to restore it? Doesn't seem too difficult or expensive to buy new plastics etc.

Going to get it running (and some good tires) then decide if I want to go further.
