dune/drag progress

[8686]

Well I finally got going on my dune/drag 250R and put a few things together recently. Got the front shocks on it and set it on the ground tonight. Rear end should be going on shortly along with the exhaust and carb and all that good stuff. It was tough to get a decent shot of the color in the garage with no natural light. The orange really pops when you see it outside. When I get it rolling I'll have to take a few more shots.

Damn man so your going to have one sweet stable!!! A lobo, walsh, and a duner!!

[dunatic]

wanna sell that bang'n E-Z Rider helmet ?

[8686]

I can't sell that helmet. It's what I wear when I'm out cruising my ATC70 and ATC90. It's perfect.

[JuiceBox]

Is it just me or do you have the front shocks on upside down???

[8686]

It's just you.

[JuiceBox]

No way those are upside down, flat bottom part of the shock should always be pointing down.

Take a look at a 400ex, I dont thing honda put every pair of shocks on upside down :devil:

[JuiceBox]

To me they look upside down, they need to be flipped, oh well at least the color looks good.

[g9901920]

if they were upside down they would not mount...
the top mount is smaller than the bottom..

Just a little update. Got a few things tightened up last night and got the ignition and exhaust on as well. The last shot is this project next to my Roll Design Lobo and Walsh 250R.

Want to sell me that naked bike in the back even though you just got it? :devil:

[morse250r]

good looking rides there !!!

[8686]

Thanks for the compliments. I'm just waiting on a couple parts and I'll be putting a few more things on the quad. Hey Master LTR450, everything's got a price. What do you have in mind?

[JuiceBox]

How hard was it to remove the springs on the front suspension? You had them powdercoated right?

Just an update. I know not much has changed but the rear shock should be on within a week or so then she is rolling on her own. Got the front fenders for it, too.

Are you talking about the front tires or the rear tires? I'm open to any and all comments and suggestions about my stuff so tell me what you think. Thanks.

[morse250r]

fronts they will want to cut into the soft sand hard packed areas youll be fine but youll have to see i guess i personally havent tried em

[86 Quad R]

it's shaping up really well....


btw: those fronts are best suited for 300' dirt tracks or similar. :cool:

[jcs003]

she is purdy

[adamson350r]

What ESR pipe is that? Bike looks sexy. I would have put a little orange in the stickers and the seat.

[8686]

It is an ESR TRX5 pipe. I didn't want to go overboard on the orange. Thanks for the compliments, guys.

I removed the bearings and seals and plugged the holes for powder, then I put in new bearings and seals.

[droppedmazda]
