ok. So i got my axle off today because the barings were shot on one side and they were completely gone on the other from a reck I had a couple weeks ago. The reck messed up my swingarm so im ganna need a new one of those also.. but summer is comming up and I would like to be back to riding as soon as possible but I have always wanted to do a rebuild with a blue frame and black accents under my white plastics.... also i would like to put in a 416 or 440.. but then again I had plans to move up and buy a new 450 this october.. What do you guys think i should do?

I would put it back to stock so it's cheap as possible and just ride it until october then get the 450r. when i moved up to a 450 i was amazed with how much faster and better it was then my 400. the stock 450 whipped my built 400. i would just wait and sell the 400 to get the 450 but thats just my opinion.

I may do a powercoat.. how much is it to get the frame powercoated? I want to do a cool blue color because its different and itll go with my white plastics.
