Street Warrior

Well after a few days of grinding, priming, painting, assembling, and
reassembling it's alive! Ready for the Santa Cruz mountains ride this
weekend!

Frame is painted matte bronze with a matte clear coat and the swingarm
is painted SEMI-FLAT BLACK
with matte clear. I like how the color came out
and should look good with the usd fork color.

After I get the usd front end back, with the black front wheel, from
CN racing the bike will be pretty much complete and ready for regular
street duty. While not as pretty as the ccc ultimate motard I have, it
definately has its own good looks and should not attract unwanted
attention from h8ers.

Also thinking about going with a veypor digital tach on this bike and
redoing the rear light/plate setup to clean it up a bit.

Street Warrior Rebirth

Decided to completely rebuild my street warrior motard including a
paint job for the frame and swingarm. Here is a picture of it from
last week after a few hours of stripping the bike.

No spark figured out

Well I took apart the entire $400 bike to paint the frame and
swingarm. With that complete an dry it came time give the motor a once
over before install in the refurbished bike. It was left sitting due
to no spark so I started by testing everything and it came out with a
bad stator. Just removed the flywheel to inspect and low and behold
the red pickup wire was just hanging there! Look like it was run
incorrectly resulting in the wire being damaged and then coming
dislodge from the pickup. This will be and easy fix to save the ducati
stator but for now I will just replace it with our spare ducati stator
to get it up and running.

Parts Installed and More Pics!

2003 CCC Motard


My latest additions to the Super Duper Motard include the trail tech veypor (speedo/tach/temp/odo), My custom all black seat, and fastway footpegs.

The veypor was very easy to install so far I used the original power and rpm lead from the stock guages and installed the temperature fitting with a simple hose cut and clamp. The speedo portion will have to wait for my USD conversion as the sensor will mount on the fork guard and most likely will have to drill the rotor to install the magnet.

I removed the black seat from my old derbi to use on the ultimate derbi, but still have to find a better permanent solution to mounting the small battery to the underside of the seat.

Fastway pegs were also removed from my old motard and were filthy phil for real. After a degrease, clean, polish, and hand painting of the logo they were installed on the ultimate Derbi.

While awaiting CN racings completion of my GPR caliper bracket to fit on the USD forks I plan to remove my expansion chamber and find a place to either nickel plate or ceramic plate. Still uncertain on what will look best on this bad boy.

Also now considering a motor swap already for a KTM 85/105sx motor!

New toy!

My vapor guage arrived today! With the wires in the kit that need to
be run and the unused wires on my new motard it should be fairly easy
to install. Might pull the harness back out to wire everything on the
bike as cleanly as possible. To maintain the title of sickest derbi
everything needs to be sick! Stay tuned for the rest of the finishing
touches.....

Riding derbi!

First stop on the ride, metcalf. As tempting as it would be to try a
trail, we have no spark arresters on our pipes :-( the ride here was
fun through the mountains with no traffic at all.

Ready to ride!

Uncovering the bike for our bats monthly ride in San Jose
