I picked up this Tecate-4 awhile back and am going to put it under the knife.
I used to race one of these clear back in the early 90's when I was a kid. Did pretty good on it too against the ol' 250R's. SOoo anyhow I have a soft spot for them.
So here's what i'm starting with.

So the plan is to take this stock, pathetic chassis and turn it into a modern race platform.
These bikes are 40" stock width!

We will be adding (ALL TRX450R) +4 JB Racing a-arms, spindles and brakes, +2 steering stem, JB Racing swingarm, +4 Lonestar axle, Works 19.5" LT PRO series shocks, GT Thunder MX link and Works sprung 04/05 rear shock.
Shooting for something like this but MX height when finished.

Building the chassis first. Still haven't figured out what engine is going in it yet.
