If you talking about plans no plans on the prop there were never made for the bike shell. If you mean the measurements of the motorcycle itself since that is the true starting point I bet you can find some technical drawing of the MX Yamaha, but then I have never looked so I am not 100% positive if anyone spent the time to blueprint draw the bike out unless Yamaha released the plans.

The bikes were made up on the fly. They made one piece to fit the bike, and then another, and kept doing that till they had it finished. Molded it up, and made a total of three bikes.
The frame they used was a 1979 MX 175 Yamaha

I am not sure how easy they are to find (The Yamaha) overseas, but it takes a month or two for them to be found over in the US local. $300 to $500 is the going rate.
