:grr: :mad: ...

It could be nicer, but I just decided to chop and put back together, I didn't really care about the look, I just wanted to ride! lol. But the picture doesn't do it justic, I dont think. But I think it sounds different. More deeper. But that may be because I went from 12 disks+norm. e-series, to 6 disks+shorty

[Ruby Soho]

looks cool

but wash that thing its filthy!

[Ruby Soho]

I took those before I washed underneith. I washed everything atop, then took the fenders off and cleaned everything below.

Yea, I washed my fenders.. rinsed everything below. lol

[mcwilly]

I like this current hood better than the one you took off. Looks better.

[LeGaCyGiAnT124]

You need to give it a good bath like some people do everytime they ride it. Here is a picture of my 400 before and after of a good cleaning. Not to sound like an a** but it makes it last longer in the long run. Cleaning and checking bearings and bushings are important. I do like the battery box though, just try to keep all the wires contained together.

[Brauap]

oh my god dude, how do you get it so clean? I ride just about everyday for hours. But once I get it that clean, I will just pull it out in 5 hours and go riding again! I am I can understand it if you only race, and race once a week, but if your a trail rider like me..

[Nac's22]

you should drill 2 drain holes in the battary box. i dont think its good to have the battery sitting it water. other then that much better then before.

[LeGaCyGiAnT124]

does my quad look like its set up to be all clean for motocross lol? It's all about patience and how you want it to be. I spend around 2 hours everytime I clean my quad EVERY time. Heres another mucky picture of my quad where it killed the motor.

See that header in that last picture? I am getting my motor rebuilt right now so I decided to clean it and sand it a bit. Here was the outcome.

Here is better pictures I just took of them. Take time and spend it cleaning your quad. It looks good in the end:macho

i vote nice to the quad and ugly to the back yard:p j/k. I like the new hood much better (at least color wise) shock covers look good and battery box is real nice. way to go

[UNBROKEN]

LeGaCyGiAnT124: who makes those barkbusters with the hand gurds they look like elephant ears lol

[Brauap]

Thanks guys for the complements! No, thats not the backyard. Its all thanks due to my sisters horses.. got I hate them, the ruin the yard, make huge holes that a a pain to ride on (litteraly) and they take up my space to ride! They have to have this HUGE pastor.. urgh.. lol

[UNBROKEN]

horses would be fun to ride no gas to buy and since there ure sisters no food to buy lol

[LeGaCyGiAnT124]

MSR makes them, but I dont like them. I want to sell them to get the powermadd gauntlet where it actually wraps around your hand. These are the right in the middle kind of handguard.

[my88r]

those msr guards are for when its muddy. most guys put them over the real hand guards.:eek2:

[hornetgod13]

I bet the drag from those MSR hand guards take atleast 5 mph of his top speed.

[LeGaCyGiAnT124]

There not that bad:blah: Who needs top speed when your running through mud swamps anyway
