You are going to like the Elka's. Plus some day you can add the Rezzies and Comp. Adjust if you want.

Looks good so far. I wish I had some money so I could do a winter rebuild. I think I am going to save a lot of money and do a BIG rebuild next winter.

Well next winter I want to do some Motor and Clutch work, Powdercoat everything, maybe Gusset Frame, all new Bearings, anything else I may have broke or got messed up, and maybe a LT front end.

Are you going to race?

i still need alot of practice before i "race". i will prolly ride with this setup for about a year and practice alot this spring summer and fall. next winter i will prolly get some rezzies for the shocks, axle and aarms. and some motor and clutch work. i would also like to get a full exhaust system.

Well come next April I will begin to race some local XC races. I am very excited and looking forward to Racing. I think after the first turn I will be ok. Still need a few more parts though....

ive only races one XC course. i got 2nd in the novice. some guy on a cannibal smoke me off the line and lead the whole race. i practically raced by myself the whole race until the end. my freind caught up to me and he left 15 seconds after i did. he has a real talent for racing XC. he was on a stock 300ex. i really wish i would have raced the b class becuz i racin against a bunch of idiots.

hers a pic
Im the one w/ shift jersey and red 400 w/ black headligths.
The 250 didnt finish
The guy to the right of me wrecked on the second lap
The mojave wrecked but finshed real far behind.
U can brely see the Cannibals rear fender circled in yellow to the far left.
My freind is the one circled in red behind me. he started in the second wave of the novice class. he finshed 1st in his wave by alot. but took 4th overall which was totally unfair. his laptime were consistant 19min. the A riders were settin 17-18 min. mine were 20 min.

The only real way to practice is to go and race. It is best practice cause on race day you feel totally different then any other day.

Wow there isn't many guys in your class. We have a Quad A and B and there is about 20 quads in both, sometimes more.

Pappy
12-08-2002, 02:41 PM

Dave400ex

Awesome. If it all works out ok I need to have mine done because the bottoms have chipped a lot and have some rust on them.

Pappy
12-08-2002, 07:17 PM
painting is the fastest and best option for stock. i did a set for a fella awhile back and they are doing great!!! maybe he will post a pic for ya:p
