How is everything coming along? Just curious. I cant wait to get this thing back together!

[Pappy]

This week should be my last super swamped week at work then I can dive in and knock her out. I have the gusset kit, but the plate steel hasnt come yet to do the foot peg area.

I am shooting for middle to end of next week having it completed

[TWISTED]

Take your time...... He's in no rush, he just wants it done in time to go with us to Breezewood in two weeks........SNICKER SNICKER. Hey Dup, that's what you get for saying I bought a girly bike......

LOL....I know the feeling all to well. Ofcourse lately boredom has been over taken by exhaustion:D

[Pappy]

OK, your on deck. PM me or post the colors you want. your dad told me and i wrote them down, but lets make double sure before i blow powder on this puppy

[TWISTED]

Hate to butt in but Pappy, are you going to Breezewood this weekend???

[Pappy]

Fine with me Pap...Got a hold of the boss and he said OK...Pappy, you may want to wrap that stuff up pretty good if TWISTED brings it to us....You know how destructive he can be..:D

[TWISTED]

Anvil vs powder puff with me at the controls????? Anvil stands no chance....... Worse than a bull in a china shop!!!

[Pappy]

Ok...im at a point where I need some changes made to the plan.

The nerfs and the crossbar are going to be questionable. If...and WHEN he has to make a nerf bar change there may be serious issues if I do a pro peg style front mount. I cant even garuntee that another set of ac nerfs would match what you have now and I know any other brand will be useless once this is done.

Id like to leave the nerf mounting as is, and move on to coating it. I just finished welding all the cracks and adding gussets

[Dupontster]

No problem. Go ahead n throw some powder on em! Put some pics up when ya got time. I cant wait to see it:D

[Pappy]

I will have pics up shortly.

I went ahead and added a zinc rich primer base to the frame. The color you have chosen really is not the best bonding so the primer coat should help. the silver coat is on and curing, then comes the clear:p

By this evening everything will be completed, not sure when twisted is leaving from BPG, maybe I can get ahold of him and see if he can swing in here on his way home

[Dupontster]

Hey Pap...Pop here...(Say that 5 times real fast:D ) Sounds good to me....If you want, I can give you TWISTED's cell number and you could call him...I think he's leaving BPG sometime Sunday...Don't really want to put his number up here so if you want, I can PM you with it....Maybe I'll give you a call this evening at home...You going to be around?

[Pappy]

go ahead and pm me his #, its raining here but that usually means it perfect at BPG:p

im going as hard as i can to get finished up so i can meet him up there. if i can keep the wife off my back (she decided it was a perfect morning to go get 2 tons of wood pellets:ermm: thankfully all i had to do was unload them:scary: ) everything is looking good though, but I havent figured a way to slow down the clock...YET:D

Hey man...Pop Dup here...How's the knee? I see you're going to Millers this weekend....Watch those boys down there...Remember the last time...:D Coach em good...You-know-who can't handle a lot of pressure...Yeah, I kind of looking forward to this weekend...We've done a lot to the bike and it needs a good shakedown without the pressure of a race....You wern't supposed to see it though..:rolleyes: Is your Dad going to get enough time off to go to Millers? I'm sure you have been workin him hard...Is Danny happy with his new motor?

[XCAdam89]

And I thought your 400 was sick...

I might be going to Millers this weekend, maybe JRP would be down to go as well...

I'll let you know.

[Nick shupe]

Yea, I didn't think I was supposed to see it but it do's look good. If Danny do's end up riding this weekend he won't have his 450 engine in it because he dosn't even have one yet, he'll be on his old bike with a stock z400 motor that's why he's not going to the Maryland state champ. becuase he's afraid he's going to get pulled real hard on those hills which he will, Miller's is flat so he's got a better chance.

[culookn]

lookn good . hows those jrd a arms working for you

[Pappy]

I think the arms kept him from riding:chinese:

The arms were fine....We put different shocks on and they were to long and there was a serious binding problem....It was our mistake and we have learned from it....

LOL..remember when there were 2 types of shocks and life was much simpler:p

The good ole days....:D Does 1/4 of an inch make THAT much difference in a shock...Does that 1/4" at the shock make 1" - 1 1/2" at the end of the a-arm? I never was too good in Geometry...:rolleyes:

[Pappy]

Me either:p

This is exactly why i chuckle at alot of the threads that say they used shocks from xyz model on abc model and it works as well as the custom axis they used to own...lmfao
