Thought Id post some photos of this project. It was started in 1997 by my cousin who ended up shelving it because of divorce. It sat in his living room and in boxes for over 10 yrs, when he passed away I inherited it about 2yrs ago. Not really knowing to much about 2 strokes I started going thru the boxes and piecing together what was there. Hoping to get it on the road sometime next year. The paint scheme and looks where all my cousins and for his sake Im keeping that way, his dad, my uncle, calls me every few weeks to ask how the project is going and wants to see it run too!
This is how I got it, pretty complete roller.
I had to get rid of the gold case paint, I don't know what was used on it, but it bubble off with just about any chemical so it had to go. I dont have any pics of the tranny, it was done by MRE and I checked all the shimming it was perfect.
I assembled the motor. Without this site and the resource page it would have been extraordinarily difficult, THANKS to all who spend their time with this.
I got the motor in the frame. It still needs to be shimmed, and there are no pistons in it. I have the cylinder off again to be shipped out. Getting reeds, and having the cc's checked and squish bands cut in.
The exhaust hit the swing arm , my solution, right or wrong, was to shorten the silencer.
I don't know how much of the electrical stuff works, and I have to figure out sprockets and chain, carbs, and Im sure a host of other things I haven't thought of. But it is moving forward and Im having fun
I remember it being off a yamaha but I cannot remember what model, it was done nearly 15 yrs ago. Also the shock is way to soft for me and I dont know if the preload will take enough out, it will have to do for now. Jerry was well over 100lbs lighter than me and he was building it for himself. 
I wish I could remember more about the chassis, I should have paid more attention, I didnt expect him to die!
