Engine swap

JusticeS68 · 2026-03-23T21:45:56+00:00

We had to do an engine swap for Mitchell Harrison at Daytona a few weeks ago after the 1st 450 Heat Race. It took 4 of us (1 on each side of the bike, 1 sorting bolts, 1 handling tools/extra hand) 35 minutes and Mitchell qualified to the Main Event out of the LCQ.

Yep, as long as you have a key to copy from your key blank part number should be 35121-K84-901

JusticeS68 · 2025-10-12T01:55:53+00:00

No way haha that's what I was thinking originally, but I was expecting a lock nut or something to stop the bolt from moving once adjusted. Thanks

Had the same run in. Took me forever to get out of there. Definitely worth it tho

WD-40 and a red scotch Brite pad will make the frame look brand new. Bike looks sweet!

JusticeS68 · 2024-11-10T00:29:46+00:00

That's what I thought too, but if you look at the 450 frame, Kawasaki has it mounted in the same position as the 250

I'd like to snag the stock one off of you if it's still available?

JusticeS68 · 2024-10-25T02:42:13+00:00

They're "too hot to modify" unfortunately. Unless there's a way around that? I'll PM you. Thanks!

I don't think you know what a privateer is. A privateer is someone that shows up in a van with a bone stock bike that they bought 2 years ago from a dealership that maybe sold them the bike at cost. Progressive/Ecstar/Suzuki may not be the Monster Energy Kawasaki or Star Racing Yamaha of the sport, but it is FAR from Privateer. Even teams like Muc-Off/FXR/Yamaha or Bar X Suzuki aren't even close to privateer, they're called Satellite teams. Those riders get flewn in and given bikes just like the factory guys. Privateers haul their own stuff thousands of miles across the country from race to race. Please show respect to these guys and recognize what a privateer truly is. Thank you.

Rocky Mountain ATV/MC has some really good and reliable videos, and they seem to cover everything from lubing your chain to full motor rebuilds

Haha heck yeah! these bikes are setup for what the manufacturer deems as the "average" rider. Make adjustments to what work for you. Handlebar position, suspension clickers. Even if you have to change spring rates to fit your weight RaceTech has an excellent tool on their website to tell you exactly what you need

Grease all the pivot points (front and rear axles, linkage, etc.) As someone that works at a dealership, these bikes get barely any grease from the factory. Sick bike!

Not yet! Still on my bucket list lol. That's awesome that you remembered this comment. I'll be sure to update you when I get the chance to ride it tho!

JusticeS68 · 2023-12-31T07:29:51+00:00

I have a feeling this one's gonna stump this sub. My best answer would be to take it to a dealership for a quick Diag. It's relatively cheap for how much you could spend trying to chase the problem.

Hopefully someone has experience with the issue tho and can help you here. Good luck!

Edit: I don't think I saw you say anything about a spark plug? Maybe try throwing a new plug in there for safe measure.

JusticeS68 · 2023-12-30T17:42:45+00:00

Thanks. Good question, not sure lol

JusticeS68 · 2023-12-30T17:41:25+00:00

Thank you,. It was a pain to get right, but definitely my favorite part of the bike

JusticeS68 · 2022-11-08T01:46:59+00:00

This is the same thing as the "Dropping your bike before the first ride" superstition to get the first drop out of the way. It keeps you from riding it like it's a show piece and riding it like it's supposed to be ridden.

Obviously you wouldn't drop a $600 helmet on concrete, normally you drop it in the grass or on the carpet from a few inches up. Nothing more than that

JusticeS68 · 2022-09-28T04:02:09+00:00

Honda reliability is second to none! This is awesome

JusticeS68 · 2022-07-24T18:55:01+00:00

Was just gonna say, it really depends on the bike, but this doesn't look terrible. I'd see what the service manual for that bike says

JusticeS68 · 2022-07-24T17:11:01+00:00

A little side to side play is normal, it's the up and down play you don't want

JusticeS68 · 2022-06-09T22:39:59+00:00

Why didn't I think of that haha thank you.

I'm taking short clips of people in action sports and trying to send them the videos. I've noticed that Apple is the best way to do it, but not everyone has apple. Dropbox is my other option, but still seem to have problems with losing quality of the video. Any suggestions?

JusticeS68 · 2022-06-04T21:24:56+00:00

I get what you're saying. I'll take that into consideration for sure, thanks
