Richy
Herbert the very talented builder of this bike has a couple specials aced on
the 350 ypvs . He does all the mods and spraying him self . This was the first
one he built back in 96 . It started out blue then , now it carry's the yellow
paint job . Believe it or not this bike took Richy and his mate Kenny Lincoln
just over a week to build .
Richy
used F2 side panels a couple of sheets of carbon fibre and fibreglass to fabricate
up the seat unit .
The
whole lump has been shifted 10mm to the right to clear the huge 160 rear Yokohama
. despite the repositioning of the engine and the unusual large rear tyre richy
says the handling is just canny .
To
give the old YP frame a fresh new look Richy fixed frame bars and a new sub
frame giving it this unique look . The tubes on the left hand side bolt in to
place and can be easily removed for engine extraction. He swopped a KX 125 for
the ZXR 400 bits .
