Magnificent 7

Ok so been dialing in the Fox bike over the weekend. Thanks to Gary for getting me a starting point on Jetting.
Been doing things one step at time. Timing, jetting and etc.....
Bike wasn’t as strong as the Maico 250 but running good.
So been working on inside of carb doing my mods. This thing just likes to stand front end up now and just rips. Not sure if it will beat Maico but it’d be close.
I’m super happy and this gonna be one of my favorites.
I like the 3.0 slide, 42.5 pilot, 450 main, R-4 jet, 6 DH20 needle, middle clip. Bike is close but still lil lean.
Gotta back Fox Shox pressure down about 10lbs and think they are good.

Oh John! Bike sounds awesome with snail pipe and has that nice Factory bike rasp to it.

Moved clip down one slot on needle to raise it one clip.

Front brake sucked so I re lined it today.

Here you go John!

Last night before putting bike away the clutch started slipping. So looks like New Plates, Fibers and Springs are in order. I just cleaned up the old stuff, which looked good, to save few bux, so not surprised. Then got few bolts loose I have to go back over.

Couple Videos.

Few pics of the 3 Amigos. Only 4 more to go! It's been years since I've looked over a Preston Petty fender, up front. Been years in the makings (7-8?) but I've got countless hours in these bikes.

Thanx John!

Excellent work on that pipe, looks and sounds awesome!

Thanx JB!

83 CR 250 is coming down the assembly line. Should have it done at New Year or shortly after. Gonna be sharp!

Some progress, but not much, since everything is stuck out there via shipping. One shipment been in New Jersey for 7 days !

Working on the levers/ pegs, shock springs. Engine is timed, with new ignition, and ready to go in the frame, when it gets done at powder coater.

Sounds like your package is in quarantine . Another 7 days before it can be shipped ?

Have no idea, that one is fasteners.

If you do! You are holding up progress.............

Sweet stuff Darin!!

Thanx DFA!

I think you guys will really like this one, once it all comes together.

Frame is done:

DFA! You might need sunglasses!

At least one shipment of my parts went from one town to the next in 9 days!

Don't think this bike will get finished since USPS delays!

Yeeellow, is that YELLOW!!Hahaha!! I am also missing some stuff in the USPS Void. Probably with a crapload of ballots!!

Its Yellow Alright!

Still waiting on shipments!

Some progress!

I stripped the triple clamps and polished them and finished my aluminum air box I made years ago, then polished it up. I also changed color scheme on my shocks.
