What are your plans??

[ATV Chic]

I plan on getting Pappy to powder coat the hubs, frame and subframe turqouise, the swinger glossy black. got new houser slicast +1 a-arms for christmas, gonna pick up some white plastics, haven't decided on what graphics kit yet. Always looking for suggestions! And that's all i got right now. I want to maybe also get the shocks revalved, haven[t decided yet. It's been a lot of work so far but i think we may get the engine out by wednesday. Thanks for asking!

[Pappy]

A GUY would have the engine out now:devil:

[400exrider707]

black and blue with white plastics should look real good.

Definitely revalve the shocks, you'll wonder how you rode the stockers for so long...:o

Beleive me it does. Especially since you're putting arms on too...

[ATV Chic]

Cool. I think we might get Toby at Moto-xperts to do em'. He revalved the forks and rebuilt the engine on my bf's dirtbike

[Honda4life05]

i think a pink frame, or pink plastics would look sick. maybe a pink/white combo. most guys would be jealous!

[ATV Chic]

haha u know i think i'm gonna get these graphics actually lol they will look good on the white. What's funny is i seriously thought about getting the frame and sub frame sea foam green and going with the bottom graphics

[Honda4life05]

lol it hurts my eyes. i don't know wether to hate it, or love it! the color of the exhaust shield is crazy.

[ATV Chic]

The color of the exhaust shield is what i thought about doing the frame and sub in, but i decided to go with turquoise instead. i like that quad alot staakej!

[ATV Chic]

The color is actually a turqouise or teal green. It looks more blue in these pics tho, here's where we are just this evening. Got the frame from Pap via FedEx at 2:30p.m. :devil:

Goin with white Laker's I hope? I was thinking of going with the teal white combo too, but I decided to stick with the color combo of my other bike.

[ATV Chic]

White OEM's. :p I can't wait to get it together. I wish had the money for the white carbon fiber lookin maiers

Ahh I cant wait to be done with cars so I can do something to my completely stock 05. Gotta finish 1 project at a time though and the car is of more importance at this time. I cant wait to see this finished

[eastcoastpro20]

looks great so far, polish them wheels out though.

[Shawthy33]

Love the color combo, its really coming together

I say lose those wheels entirely, I've always thought they looked hideous

[ATV Chic]

Ya I keep debating on forking out the cash for hipers. I now have a wedding to save for so money just got tight! :D Thanks for checking it out. more pics when i get the graphics and such later this week. Can't wait!

[mooseracerX]

You should try the Championship in a box kit, that would look really good on there. ;)

DWT > HiPer.


The carbon fiber fad is over, function > looks.

I busted 4 HiPer rears last year before I went back aluminum. Bought DWT this year and never looking back.


Quad looks sharp, definitely fork out and get the shocks revalved. A Clear oversized tank would look great as well.

[J.Brown121]

Looks good!

[ATV Chic]

thanks for your suggestions guys I appreciate your thoughts!

mooseracerx, who has that kit?

dwt makes them and i got a great deal on a set through wkc powersports.

[mooseracerX]

K&K ATV carries them or you can call up DWT and order them direct at 760-758-5560. Same price either way.

[ATV Chic]

[wild250rman]

[ATV Chic]

[Eclipsemike]

[ATV Chic]

def i'll keep you in mind. Do you own an eclipse? if so what year? I have a set of brand new kyb shocks and struts for a 95-99 that i was going to sell on ebay. They are in the orginal boxes. The boxes are a lil smashed from being on a shelf with other stuff in my shed but the shocks are fine. Just thought I'd ask. Thanks.

[Eclipsemike]

yes i own an eclipse. i actually own two (both of them are 95's) i have one as a daily driver and one as a show car. send me some pics of the struts and gfive me a price for them. i may be interested in them if the price is right. right now i am not really workin on my cars it is riding time. i save the cars for the winter time when riding is almost out of the picture but i am in the need for a new set of struts. are they struts with the coilovers built in or are they just regular struts that use the stock springs?

[ATV Chic]

Sorry I haven't replied before now. Been super busy. These are the KYB G2's and they're for use with the stock springs. I could do 80 shipped for the struts if you're still interested. Pics Pm'd
