[red]

[Rip_Tear]

It should be way lighter now Rico! :D Looking good! You quote is like my theory! Work Smarter not harder!

[Sparks425Ex]

Sweet Rico. That looks exactly like mine(Excludoing the red Swing arm and Red a arms)

Lets see a poic of yours Bills. I wanna see how long it is in comparison to mine. It looks in the pic like they are just about the same size.

Who polished your motor mounts?

is it mx ro xc quad? im thinking its mx from them dang ol tires

There's a pic of the bills shorty in the powertrain forum..;)

the motor mounts are chromed so they never need polished..:D

and freeride,,it's got the MX look now but I'll be postin pics of it setup for both MX and XC here in a week or so,,I got lots of parts ta swap around to race in each different condition.:macho

[kicken250x]

that thing is sexy!

[Dave400ex]

Very nice. I like the Black Frame with Red A-Arms and Swingarm. Only thing I would go is get Chrome Upper Arms and a Chrome Stem.

[Taco]

Looks like a P.O.S. to me :blah :blah :devil

[Dave400ex]

The biggest test of all, will it run when it's all put back together? :blah :D

[02 Red Rider]

Prove 'em all wrong Rico, just take it off the stand and ride it just like that. You don't need handlebars or a seat. J/K

Looking good, I can't wait to start reassembling mine.:D

[MSL]

Thats looking good Rico :cool:

Riker4x told me to tell you that maybe now you could keep up with him in the woods at LBL ;)

[jmoney45]

Well all the wiring is hooked up and when I turned the key I got a green nuetral light so I"m thinkin it's good ta go..I'll know this weekend because i'll have the exhaust put back on..woo hooo

[Knight440]

Looking Good :macho

[Dave400ex]

So how hard was it really to take it all the way down to the Frame and remember where everything went?

Actually it's not really taht bad as long as you TAKE YOUR TIME...that's the key. if you don't plan on replacing a-arms or swingarm,,you can pull the rearend and front end off in large pieces. Keep the bolts with the parts they go to,,and label stuff. Honestly it went WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than I thought...but if I hadn't replaced the swingarm and bolt a few months ago I wouldn't be so happy with how it went...:)

[Dave400ex]

Yeah I would just pull the whole Rear End off and the whole Front End off so I didn't have so many parts/bolts. I think the biggest thing would be all the wiring.

Negative my good man...the wiring is not that bad at all. But I've also got extensive wiring experience since rico jr. chewed up my wiring harness 14 times...:eek:

[killed300ex]

mna i was worried about riring but its a joke lol next time i wont even label the think its so obvious. lol everyhting is color coted and it all comes off as one big peice i thought id have trouble it took me lik1 1/2 to take it all off cause i labeled it then about 30 min ot put it back on lol dont worry about it its easy!
killed
PS im really really stupid to

[Dave400ex]

Awesome! I want to rip my down and have it Gusseted and PCed next winter if all goes well.....

lmfao, yeah lets c it

[ChadEXer]

Damn Rico, I just noticed yours look puuurty similar to mine in color!! I have done this tear down and put together stuff so many times I can close my eyes and do it, I can tell you what size bolt goes in each hole without looking!!! The wiring part is pretty simple, its the remembering where all the tiny parts go! You definately want to label everything!! Here is a pic of mine the "first" time I was puttig it back together!! Of course there has been much more "bling bling" added this time and oh yeah,,a motor!!

[Dave400ex]

I want my Colors just like Chad's, but a Chrome Stem and Chrome Top Arms....

My chrome stem is on the way I hope..:(

[ChadEXer]

I started to chrome every piece on my bike but there is only one place we know of that does it locally and my friend had his all done about a year ago and his has started to chip! Thats what i was worried about!!!

:eek:

[Ralph]

[MxStar826]

Looks sweet Rico. I thought it looked good last summer,all I can say is WOW!

[02 Red Rider]

Looks real good Rico! Nice Work.:cool:

[Dave400ex]

Me like. That is awesome. Let's see the XC setup....

[Rip_Tear]

Looking good Rico. I have a question for all though, I may answer it though. Why do some 400ex's say Fourtrax and some Sportrax? I havent seen a Yellow one that says Fourtrax, is that it? The color? Year, if so what? Thanks, I have always wondered.

[Ralph]

Nice job on the frame. I'm guessing that you used Rust Oleum, I've never seen Krylon lay down that smooth...
