Post some pics when you get it back together...I'd like to see how that swingarm looks on it. Did the "newer" transmission get it going better?

This is how it sits now. Still waiting on parts to trickle in.

... nice swingarm.. now maybe bore that mount to 31/64 for the updated 12mm shock bolt, and it's good to go.

Wow that's a great eye to catch that! Yep the swing arm hasn't been drilled out.

Ported the head out last night and today. Thanks to csracer for the info and pointers.

My 6 buck valve tool due to necessity. 6" hf c clamp and a yz250 rear wheel spacer drilled out so I could access the valve keepers. Worked great.

I noticed something I should warn you about.... You have aluminum valve keepers on the head. They are junk and are prone to failure. I would swap those out for the newer titanium ones. You will have to change the valve retainers and keepers but you will be glad you did.
