What's this gonna cost roughly, I need more ponies but not sure I want to build up the 400ex motor. Is the 426 any good?

Mxbubs,
Do you race it or just trail ride it? Also curious about the maintenance on it.

No, I just work on it.:D


Actually, it is VERY solid. Unlike ECATV and a bunch of other builders, I have a 4 point motor mounting setup instead of three. It rocks. Cranks UNBELEIEVABLY easy, I can crank it with my left foot if Im standing on the ground to the right side of it. I did some tweaking on my carb and electrical though.


Cost? How to? Everything is in my post.

You can call Trinity, and ask for Harry, he can build you a pipe like mine, I love my pipe. You can easily make a kicker extension, dont pay 200$ for one. Didnt you guys see mine?
