Parts will be shipped out in the morning.

[tazman7]

Hey pappy, I am going to be sending you the parts in the morning that we talked about powdercoating (through pm). I just wanted to make this thread while I had some extra time.


Todd Adamson Rochelle, Illinois
815-978-3586

Parts sent:

Frame---candy apple green

Subframe/subframe brace- - - candy apple green

Piece that covers the rear brakeline (in a bag)---candy apple green

Steering stem/bag with parts for steering stem---high gloss white

Oil tank---high gloss white

Engine mounts---candy apple blue


In the frame there are still the seals in the spot for the steering stem. I wasnt sure how to get them off so I thought you could do it (if you have to charge me, go ahead) but if you could get them out and save them that would be great. If you cant get them out in a saveable condition then plase let me know so I can get them ordered so they are here by the time I get my stuff back.

Please let me know when you recieve them. Thanks, Todd

[tazman7]

ok it is enroute via ups.

just look for the frame wrapped in stretch wrap with carpet padding on the bottom and top...make sure you take extra special care of her...:D

[tazman7]

according to ups, you should be recieving them today(4-2-08)

[tazman7]

Did they make it there pappy?

[Pappy]

arrived no more then 5 minutes ago

[tazman7]

awesome- just curious on how long it will take you to finish everything.

how was my packaging job? I was kinda nervous about it.

[Pappy]

I took it over to the strippers tonight, and if all goes well he will have a batch done for me by the end of the week. The candy apple green is ordered so once it comes in I can shoot it all (mid week next week is a guessitmate)

[tazman7]

sounds awesome- cant wait to get it back together- thanks for the quick update

[tazman7]

Just wondering how the frame looked after sandblasting?
Were there any crack I didnt find?

I know the welds are pretty ugly on my gussets, our welder started acting up after getting hot.

[Pappy]

I saw a few welds that will need going over (no penetration) but no cracks were immediatley obvious, however I will giove it a once over before coating

[tazman7]

Thanks pappy, It figures our welder works great until I get all of my gussets made and about 2 of them welded on then it starts popping and not feeding wire good....I wanted to blow it up, took me almost two days to weld those in because I had to work on the welder so much.

You think I will recieve everything back this week? Just curious because I have a race on Saturday id like to go to but if I cant thats fine too. Just trying to plan my week out.

[Pappy]

as long as the powder comes in, you should have it by the end of the week, atleast thats what i have planned:p

[tazman7]

Hey pappy, just wondering if you got the powder in yet?

Also can you send me a total so I can send you the money for everything.

thanks!

[Pappy]

I believe it arrived today so in the next day or so I will have you knocked out

[tazman7]

Ok cool- im hoping its here by sat.

Please let me know a total when you can. thanks pappy!

[tazman7]

Hey pappy. just wondering how it is coming? You think it will get shipped out today?


Sorry to keep bugging you, my buddy just wants to try and setup a car pool to the races and can only fit 4 quads..damn gas prices. And if I dont have my quad back together then another friend wants to ride with them....no big deal to me just wonderin.

Thanks!

[Pappy]

[tazman7]

Cant wait to get this baby together- thanks for posting the pics. Ill be sure to send you a pic when its all together.

That looks good. I thought it would have been a little brighter that the granny smith green. But it could be the lighting too, will this stand out in the sun pappy?

nice work!

[Pappy]

it is a tad bit brighter but the color is pretty close to what you will see in person. it will be different then others and stand out for sure:p

[tazman7]

Hey pappy- I am in the process of sending you the money via paypal-

Just wondering if you have any shirts or stickers and I will run them on my quad. If you do let me know how much $$ and I will fix the total bill.

[tazman7]

Ok the money is sent via paypal-

Awesome- it says that it is supposed to be here on Saturday, I didnt know they ship on Saturdays..thats awesome!

Couple questions about the powdercoat: I use a cleaner called citrus to clean my quad, it is basically a very good degreaser that I just spray on and powerwash it, and everything comes off. Do I have to be careful on what I use to clean my quad with the powdercoat? Will it dull the finish or like if I get brake cleaner on it will it come off?

[Pappy]

You should only use cleaners that are paint safe. most citrus products contan acids. I onlt recommend Simple green or cleaners made purposley for cleaning motorcyles etc.
