This bike started off being a budget project to meet a need I had. I have been going to breezewood all last year and beating the crap out of my XC quad all the time. I wanted to build an MX specific bike so that i didn't have to worry about messing my XC bike up a weekend before a race or something.

Since I have 3 450r's (long story but i got some awesome deals) I had enough parts laying around to put together an mx bike pretty cheap. I had GTThunder rebuild the rear shock and put thier mx link on. I had an RPM +4 axle on the shelf along with a JB +1.25 swing arm for the rear suspension. I bought +2 arms from Houser and got Fox Evol Shocks to pair up with them. Everything else was on the shelf in my garage.

I am running a houser +1 stem, fasst bars, streamline brake lines, ATP Racing Motor Build, red plastics, quad tech seat sidewinder sprockets and chains, and a few other goodies. Now i can go to Breezewood Proving Grounds and tear it up with the rest of them and not worry about being able to race the following weekend. :trink4:

I got the ASV C5 controls. These things rock. the adjustability fit and finish makes it worth the money alone. must less the way they look on the bike.

Pappy did all my powdercoating work, stealth black, steath red and chrome powder. Should be a good looking combo.

if you are wondering why some of the pictures have two sets of parts i am also redoing my xc bike and getting some stuff recoated.

Pappys bro Kevin is giving me a hand putting everything together. its nice having another great wrench there putting a bike back together. makes it go so much smoother and faster.

I don't have the pictures as it sits right now cause I don't want everyone making fun of the caster and camber adjustments that are WAY off. it is rolling right now and i am waiting on a few small things to get this thing all the way back together. the big one is the motor that is down at ATP right now getting a complete go thru.

You bike looks nice man!

yup, it does. Kevin helped me out a lot too! Hees a real nice guy. When my quad wasnt working, he told me to come up to his house and he fixed it in 1:48 exact! He knows his stuff!.. Pappy also helped me out when i was at breezewood. Thanks pappy and kevin! http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c278/tjespo22/clap.gif
