I've got a 2000 DS 650 with the equivalent to a Woods Stage 3. Motor was just rebuilt by KMS to include a new crank. Got +4 TBR swing arm, Renthal fat bars, piston, cams, larger valves, lectron and fcr's, head ported by Kenz, Graydon pipe, woods cdi, etc, etc.

Anyway it seems there's not really a market for a bike with this much work and was wondering if anyone has had better luck parting their bikes out and returning to stock.

thanks.

 

Parting seems to bring the most money now days. I know a buddy who just profited some serious cash on a brand new part out.

If you do, I want first dibs on the fcr's and motor, [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'ld say it depends. . .

See what these guys will give you for the motor and go from there.

I wouldn't mind picking up a roller to ship off to someone for a street-bike mod but, don't know if I could give you what you would want for the roller.

 

Well there you have it, what do you guys think that motor is worth. What about the roller??? I just have no idea were to price these things.

 

I think $1000-$1500 would be a good start for the motor

$400-$500 for the FCR's would be a good start. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I got a better idea KMDuner - just keep it and ride her!!

Haven't seen you on here in a while, have you been around and I aint noticed?
Are you the same KMDuner I'm thinking of that got one of the very first lectron 44's from FastbyGast? back when they were giving a $20 discount to forum members?

 

Yep it's me. It is a lectron 44 but is not the same one from back in the day.

The FCR's a old and need a rebuild so they would be thrown in with the motor. $1000-$1500, come on I just put in a brand new $500 crank. Head work was $1000, vavles, piston, cam, etc.

 

I said a good place to start...first we need to talk about clutch, gears, shift drum, shift forks (basically the bottom end). Your talking serious money if I have to split it again to change out any of these parts.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I would have no idea, all seems to work perfect. I'm sure Kelly could shed some light as he just had it all apart a few months ago.
