subframe

[journeyman]

hey pappy...im gettin ready to order a new subframe for my 05 400ex...along with it im gettin a few orings and such.small items...can i just have everything shipped to you,so you can powdercoat the subframe stealth black,and then you send it all to me???my zip code is 21613 if that helps.Also, do you, or anybody you do work with modify 400ex subframes so it would accept a 250r or perhaps a 450r grab bar????i dont wanna buy a new subframe everytime i brake the grab bar off

thanks alot
pat

[Pappy]

yes, it can be direct shipped here, do it all the time


subframe grab bar mod is $45, grab bar is around $40 and to pc it is $45

takes about a week or less

[journeyman]

well in stead of me buying a new one....what can you do with this????

hard to say from the picture alone, but it looks usuable for what you have in mind.

[journeyman]

so what kind of grab bar does the mod accept???250r or 450r???
and with return shipping and all we are lookin at about $150????
and if i just get the new one powdercoated with no grab bar mod its $45 + shippng???

[Pappy]

yes, a 450R grab bar works fine.

If an AC or PRM grab bar is used, your looking around $145 shipped

[journeyman]

what do you think my best option is???
im not liking the idea of haking up a NEW subframe....should i buy a new one and just powdercoat, or send you the old one,do the mod,and powdercoat

[Pappy]

send me the old one first, let me look it over and see what i can do. i wouldnt spend any more then ya really need to

[journeyman]

motosport.com has 05 subframes for $102 shipped....so i think its gonna be around the same either way i go

[Pappy]

its completely up to you, i got the impression you did not want to hack a new one nor bend another one (which you can still bend one with a removable grab bar)

its your call bud, ill be here either way:p

[journeyman]

i was just thinkin the grab bar would break before it smashed another subframe

[journeyman]

hey pappy....sorry for all the questions, i just cant decide what i wanna do...what is the "march maddness" special if I send the fram and sub,both in stealth black,and the grab bar mod with return shipping???im thinkin of just doin it all at once

[Pappy]

a frame and sub in that color would be $150 for march

so you could subtract the $45 to pc the sub and it would be

$150 + $40 + $45 for the total of $235 plus shipping etc.
