Rkyle0017 Posted September 30, 2019 I was wondering what kind of fabrication that would need to be done to do a subframe swap with a 2000 to a 2004 yz125 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YZDOC Posted September 30, 2019 Doesn’t have to be a 2004. Any 2002 up will do. In the long run, it’s like the UN (un-necessary) Need: fuel cell (fabricate brackets to mount), seat, subframe (re-weld lower on frame, or fabricate brackets), air box, and appropriate plastics. There are a few threads in here, use the search function. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I probobly would not be worth the time and hassle and frame butcher just to do that rather than just leaving the original style plastics on with a newer front fender and number plate?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, I did that to a 2001. Probably would have looked good with even the 2006-14 fender. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you message the seller to request different front graphics? Sick bike by the way, very interested in doing something similar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Told him what I was doing and we proofed it about 3 times to be exactly that. Thanks, was a long sale but I wasn’t taking less. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gage Krisanda Posted August 21, 2020 I know its been a while since this thread has been active, but after a long winter of ripping the bike apart I finally finished it. Thanks for steering me in the right direction and for the inspiration @YZDOC The bike is a 2000 yz125 that's bigbored to 144 (hence the number plate) and is street legal. I am running a 2020 number plate and front fender, but for reasons listed above did not alter anything else frame or plastic wise. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
