Air box is real restrictive on the DT400, you can make some mods and get closer to YZ spec with 50+ bhp
The reed block needs a lot of work as it's off a 250

He changed the reedblock, ported it reworked the head, Big K&N pod.... Sure picksup that front wheel easy..  I sholdataken abunch of detail pics.. Tries to fall in when turning tight at low speed,because he pulled the rke bake to about 25 degrees. It will get run on the vintage track, and maybe put on the street.
 It did make about 40 hp on the dyno..

I think its a POS and the guy/girl looks like a frigging cartoon character. That pic inspires me to do nothing but blow past an over geared up douche and giggle......a sinister giggle.

you guys need to peek into some of those japanese "biker" blogs depicting the local H-D/Triumph bobber scene. simply pathetic. the phrase "rebel without a clue" springs to mind. shame about the amount of valuable vintage harleys and triumph slaughtered to make those things. just sad.

I don't know which is more scary, the size of that brake light or the pulled up socks.
'73 CB750k engine, hubs, and a '76 tank, on 'a 78 frame. Go figure.

Damn, I am wracking my brain, there was an article in a Motorcycle mag about that bike within the last year I think. Maybe one of the Brit classic bike mags, of which there are many.

Looks like an MZ?? I think they're German.  I saw one a little while back but I don't remember where?  I kind of liked the way the tank and headlight came together too - has a very period look to it.

Lol.....my girlfriend has a similar name for them  ;)
