Dude, looks awesome!!!!
For mods, I would start with suspension and then work on the motor. Look into some new shocks, new steering stem (my +1 is awesome, makes it feel better), new handle bars, and etc......What kind of riding do you do.

P.S. I like the black plastics, I think when mine get all scratched up, I am going with black. :devil:

very nice!! if your looking for suggestions looks wise the first things i'd do if it was mine would be to ditch the plastic heel guards, and the parking brake. then new handle bars and some black transparent plastic headlight covers would look sweet! get some new tires all the way around and you'd be SET UP...it would look a lot more "cleaned up" imo. i'd also take off those round disk things that are between the wheel and the hub, some people like them though....to me they just look too stock and kinda useless.

but again it looks nice as it is dude, clean quad.

hey btw where did you get that aluminum chain guard with YFZ etched on it, i cant find them anywhere?

I got that guard off ebay. I took of the parking brake and lever and installed a Lonestar block-off plate but that was after the pics were taken. I also have a leagers steering stem, but i have to repaint it. I ride alot of tracks but I want to build the quad to ride everything. I will end up doing longtravel max ground clearance a-arms with fox front shocks. i already have the rear shock set for my weight but i will buy a elka rear link. All of this will come when money is available, being that im 17 and pay for all my stuff money can get tight.

hahaha your 17 and "money's tight" huh? lol i thought the same thing when i was 17 with a job, paid for everything i did, and was in sports...now im 19 and in my first year at college and buddy you have no idea what BROKE is!! i'd kill to have the "money" i did at 17...now i dont have time to wipe my own *****!! lol im just saying be frivilous with your money now because its gonna get real bad real quick!

btw your plans for you quad to sound pretty sick, post pics when done.

also, i've been to lima a ton of times, i've got a buddy there now going to school. im from berne IN (ft. wayne?), you know where thats at? where do you ride most of the time around there?

I usually ride at Wayne national forest. Ive been to Haspen Acres in Indiana once and realy liked it so I would realy like to go back. but for the most part of the year I ride around here, my friends and I have alot of trails and tracks we made to ride on. Im hoping this summer to take a trip to the Silver Lake dunes in Michigan.

yea we've gone to haspin acres several times and love it...its like anything goes there and its usually not to crowded. i have yet to make it to silver lake because im in kentucky now so its quite a drive, my friends in berne though have made the trip several times and said its awesome. if you get a chance you should DEFINATELY hit up the badlands in attica (sp?) indiana...that place is awesome, maybe better than haspin, maybe haha
