What you guys have instore for your winter rebuilds...

[ZeroLogic]

What the title says, What do you guys have planned for your bike and quads for 08 season?

Heres mine,

UFO stock plastic kit, number plate and fork protectors, mine are in poor shape.

TM designworks no leak exhaust collar, after my brother flattened my FMF Sst exhaust I brought a brand new one and now it won't stop blowing out oil where the header meets the silencer. I've tried everything to stop it. I sure hope this fixes it!

New break pads, front and rear.

Front and rear Pro Wheel rims and spokes, I don't have the extra $$ for Excel rims.

New numbers and number backgrounds

2008 FX Signature Series Graphics. The look pretty sick!

New rings.

I'm sure there will be some other odds and ends to thant. I'm tight on money so no big mods for me. What do you have instore for you guys?

Tear her down and clean everythingup real good. Polish a few odds and ends. Maybe try and find a new set of used wheels for some slicks.

Nothing to extravagant. I'll have a 450 in 6 months, so i'm not dumping to much into it. Should be interesting watching my mom adjust to my 440 though:devil:

Yea, I'm not dumping too much into my bike because next winter I'm going to be buying a 250f, probably a Kfx.:devil:

[ZeroLogic]

Ask any CRF owner on here about that problem and theyll say different. Just put in some Kibblewhite valves and that problem will go away real fast LOL.:cool:

[Pipeless416]

im not really rebuilding, just adding. anyway, i figured it was a good idea to run my savings down to nothing, so since october i have bought a 450r carb, 450r shocks, burgard +2 arms, trailtech lights, quadtech hood, black seat, asv clutch lever, and i'll be purchasing a g force axle soon. :) im so broke.

[tar]

ST axis shocks
rear beadlocks
new front wheels
new mx tires all around
steering stabilizer
shave fenders

[firefighterjosh]

i love it. it looks really small, but there its actually a little mor roomy than a blaster when you sit on it with the way the footpegs, steering stem and front fenders are. its incredibly light also which is nice. the best way to desribe it would be a better handling, better feeling blaster with a 300ex motor. it really seems to have the ebst of both a blaster and 300ex

[trx400EXtreme]

i'll be doing a little build: PEP shocks, hopefully FMF powerbomb if i get the money, maybe new a-arm bushings, and a real deep clean, and what ever brakes from now till christmas.:blah:

I wouldnt take those works off and put stock 450r shocks on. You'll be dissapointed. Get yours freshend up and a rezzie put on, I promise you that you'll be much happier.;)
