Just wanted to see how everyone's racing season is coming together. I know alot xc series start in the next 2 weeks.
I've got over $1,200 of brand new parts for my bike in boxes and still waiting for my frame and swing arm to get back. They've been gone a month just to get powered black.
i'll have pics of my bike when i get it finished best kx 125 you'll ever see.

how close to ready is everyone else

Probably wont hit the track until late summer. I have a lot of work to do and not much time. I figure the summer I will have time to work on things to be ready.

My motor is almost finished. Already got $1000 in parts for it (Patrick Flanagan is building it). Just had my rear shock finished. Still gotta get all my crap back from powder. And assemble EVERYTHING! First race is March 6th... Hopefully I'll make it, if not I'll be on my practice bike :confused:

my racing season isn't going yet. i got fox shocks and all bearings and seals but i have ran low on money to get the arsfx a arms:mad: so i am looking for a good used set to buy before i send it to the powdercoaters. i also need a chain sprockets and switching my head and a new timing chain. the pc'er said it will be done in one to 2 days though so if i can get my $hit together i will have it done in a couple weeks.

we build off the head and cylinder last night good thing i decided to do this and already a piston and valves. one intake was tight while the rest weren't. the piston skirt was starting to scuff up. when you put the new je piston in you can see light at the bottom of the cylinder and you see the skin of a persons face on the top. my front shocks are starting to leak fluid and i did plan to get the suspension rebuilt in the 1st place. other than that i have left to geta cam chain slider and waiting on fiber plates. my 1st race won't be til mayish for a neatv race. we just gotta get some wiring fixed to hopefully get my e-shifter working right. also have my idolspeed quadshot holeshot device very excited to get this mounted and start testing

I have everything sitting in the garage just need the time to get it together. Having a lots of problem getting the new ball joints in my Houser a arms while the old ones came out extremely easy. Anyone have any suggestions?

Got out on the new kxf once in january but we have 2 feet of snow here much so it's been getting some more parts. Mostly eye candy parts for now. Suspension will be sent out in a month or so for a respring/revalve. I've been buying some stuff for me too. New tech 10's, new helmet/goggles, and a few sets of gear. Should be a good race/ride season if I have the time.
