im not saying you should do this but some one needs to. im talking about cutting the 400ex side panels and fenders to form the angle the 250r plastics form. heres an example

its not my bike..hope the owner will understand its just for informational purposes. but basically a 250r hood will look great with the race cute fenders and 250r cut side panels. somebody please try it.

Im pretty sure if you cut the side panels like that you will have the upper frame tubes showing and it would look pretty dumb.

hey 450r why the hell ya rippin on the dudes ride..Its a nice quad maybe because its not your taste..Oh well,I think its a sweet clean ride..As far as the graphics he likes let em have it on there..post a pic of your quad lets see what you got on that R!!!!!!!!!!!!:grr: :grr:

450r51
07-11-2005, 08:27 PM
just a little harmless fun, and i would post a pic of my r but dont have a camera, and i think graphics r stupid because y spend a $100+ on graphics when u could use that to make ur quad better just my opinion.

Well I decided that since my quad is already better than yours motor wise, I'd go ahead and make it look better too. Anyway, those flames are coming off soon for an XGX custom kit.

07-13-2005, 05:57 PM
id like to see u be faster then me on the track seeing u dont even have suspension parts or nething done to ur quad, besides those dumb flamer graphics and some engine work.

sampleez
07-13-2005, 07:11 PM
y don't try bein a dick.....ok :rolleyes: just cause he don't have suspension, don't mean he aint fast. he!!, i've done stuff on a stock suspensioned 400ex than a few guys around here won't do w/ LT bikes

figair
07-13-2005, 08:00 PM
That dont mean sh*! if ya dont have aftermarket suspension.I had my stock 400 smokin guys on the track w there fully decked machines.Back in the day...Its all on the rider too kid.......

sampleez
07-13-2005, 09:20 PM
and why is that? oh, i know......cause u have the all mighty 450r that couldn't possibly be beaten by a 250r....right? :rolleyes:

and the language isn't really necessary :o

07-13-2005, 09:24 PM
althougt it could never ever beat a 450r, neither could my quad, thats a nice 250 im sure it will look even better w/ur new graphics

someone kick 450r51 off all he does is piss people off and think hes so fast. ive seen him ride and he sucks. but he thinks hes the chit

Iliketogofast
07-14-2005, 08:51 PM
Yeh, he just tries to piss people off. The only reason he does it is because he's ugly and everybody else is sexy so it makes him sad... And as Yoda says, "A path to the Dark Side, sorrow is.":blah:
