These pictures aren't great. I'll get some better ones after I get my MX wheels and tires installed. It's almost there, just a few motor mods and I'll be set.

Yeah, those are just my sand wheels, I have some Ulitmate Beadlocks, Ultimate fronts and Kenda Klaws on the way. I do agree with you though, black wheels would look sick, but I can think of other things that I can waste my money on for now. Thanks.

I got the pipe from a local shop here in Eugene, Oregon. I bought it back in June when those pipes were fairly new. I think I bought it for $560 (spendy) but I love how the bike pulls with this pipe.

Tested out the suspension today, was real smooth on the landing. The gap was about 60ft. Need to stiffen up the suspension a little bit more to my liking.

Cornering this bike is simple and requires little leaning, it's damn near on rails. Small bumps are virtually gone with this setup. I'm very pleased with the results.

Just wondering how do you take the fenders off with out taking the plastic radiator cowls off?. Do you have to drill the rivots out

Your bike looks damn good R3Concepts......In the future I will probably get mine PC as well (when I get the frame and everything else done). In the mean time I'm content with what I have, mainly cause I'm broke, lol.

I grinded the rivots off with a dremel, then unbolted the bolts. But when i took the femder off, the plastic was all messed up where it layed against the shroud so i put them back on. I think they look better cut anyway.
