prp hybrid

[wishmasstir]

well...i'm crossing over

if everything goes good i'm bringing this hybrid home. its a 2003 prp yz445f with a roll front end. it was on the forum for sale 3 years ago and hasnt really moved ever since. the only problem i have with it is with the flip top fender mounts, if you have a prp fliptop quad post some pics of the flip top/rear fenders up on the quad. i'll take pictures of what i'm talking about whenever i bring it home. i also need a full chassis skidplate for it so i might be making one or trying a 250r skid to see how close it is to fitting

[wishmasstir]

i'm going to swap over my fenders/shrouds/seat and handguards off my 250r then its up for sale. i already have a buyer lined up so hopefully i can get rid of it fast cause i have NO room as it is.

what don't u like about the flip top? i'll tell u one thing after awhile it becomes a pain in the arse flipping it up everytime u want to start it...

[wishmasstir]

i like it but the part that goes through the grommet must of broken off and a piece was welded back on. i want to see what they originally looked like so i can compare. i dont ride enough to complain about flipping it up

[stocktires]

My JRD was broken and re-welded also. Seems like a horrible idea in the first place to me. Convienent yet problematic. I'd rather have a normal type.

I had two PRP quads, an '04 and an '05 and with FullBore plastics you didn't even have to flip the seat up to start. Yea your boot would hit a little of the fender but it never was in the way too much to keep it from starting, course my motors always started first or second kick too!

[wishmasstir]

this thing is such a blast, did a few laps around a track this morning and it was really impressive to me. revs so fast with all the motor work done to it and it was spot on jetting. i couldnt get the hang of starting the bike motor at first but i think i got it down now. too bad i don't have the room to keep both of these quads:(

if anyone has some pictures of a prp hybrid please send me pictures of the flip top so i can compare them to mine

edit: fyi dave at prp is 315-723-3475 or 315-942-5291 and the actual guy you call to get some parts is tony @ 315-337-6399 or view www.tigorracing.com. i'm going to just end up sending tony my subframe with flip top and hes going to fix it. he said to just get a skidplate made at a shop because it would cost me just the same for him to make me one too, just incase anybody with one of these was looking for a skidplate

had the hybrid out at the track this weekend, it was a blast.

[iraq66]

Be careful sending your subframe and flip. It took me I think six weeks and several phone calls to get a set of a-arm bushings from Tigor, and they never did send my motor mounts that was ordered at the same time. Nor do I want them any more.
You still need pics even though you know mine is differant ?

Just trying to save you some head aches:grr:

[wishmasstir]

i'll probably just fix it over winter now that i see what i need to do
