My TRX90 KOQ build

[airmobile101]

I'm slowly putting this thing together. Not in a super hurry since we have until Feb. when our series kicks off again. Nothing flashly, Brand new 2009 TRX90X getting a KOQ LT suspension. I decided to go with Tom's stuff mainly for what we race. My son and myself race harescrambles/XC. I'll leave a review of this once the bike is complete.

Ok, heres the upper bracket for the upper a-arms. Im not a fan of the U-BOLTS, but I was impressed how well it was welded.

[airmobile101]

Ok..... One of the reasons I at least wanted to tackle this now is because the front end requires 14" front shocks, but I have some Float 14.5" shocks I'm gonna try. If it doesn't work, they will be sent down to Dirtworks Motosports to be shortened. All the components I'm gonna use is from a 2007 TRX450ER. I do have a 400EX parts bike on back-up if something doesn't work out.

I'm getting there. Crap is just sooooo expensive when building a mini. Cost as much as a big boy quad!

[miniquaddad90]

NICE!! :devil: Did u get the KOQ swinger too?

Not yet,but thats what I plan on doing. I got the cash,but I need to put it in my bank account first before I can get it.

[miniquaddad90]

Looks like the Fox shocks are gonna work for you also!

[airmobile101]

Ok, 450r spindles don't work. Well..... It does, but it really limits the travel. I had a Z400 spindle laying around and tried that. Much better! Needless to say, one thing I don't have is 400ex spindles........ To be continued.....

[airmobile101]

Ok, this isn't going according to plan. My back 400ex ended up being fixed, then I though I might have another off craigslist,but the guy bailed on me. geeaazzzzzzz............

[trompen542]

Hi, give me a call, I might be able to help you figure out the 450r spindles. 616-363-1215

Good talking to yea! Remember, BLACK SWINGER TOM!

[trompen542]

no problem, Its already pulled out of stock, and is in the shipping dept.

[airmobile101]

grrrrr........ Ok, I got the 400ex entire frontend in the mail today. The 400ex spindles bind up the balljoints also. Maybe its just me????? I didn't spend much time with it since I have a race in the morning. I'll tinker with it on Monday when I'm off work. I'll also post a pic to give everyone an idea what I'm talking about. I also have some Z400 hubs coming also. So if I can't get the travel I want without the bind, then Ill toss on the Z400 front end.

[trompen542]

call me, and I will walk you through it. its all in the upper heim adjustment.
tom @ koq

[airmobile101]

I'm sure it is Tom. It just appears that way. I will know for sure once I get the wheels installed.

[airmobile101]

Ok, wheels are installed. Everything is fitted loose, so naturally the camber, and toe is out of wack. Plus the brakes and tie rods are not installed. What your looking at is the 450r front end on this. The 400ex spindles and stuff I might try tomorrow. I will also give a shot at the Z400 frontend once the front hubs arrive.

Looks like you need to bring the upper heims in quit a bit more

[T@AFP]

For sure.
You shouldn't use those heims to achieve your desired camber settings. Use those for the caster and if possible use your ball joints for the proper camber settings. But with this style of upper A arm. That is not possible.
Just keep an eye on the heim joint for bending. The upper A arm doesn't produce much load, but it is possible to have those heims fail because they are sticcking out that far.

That's what I was thinking too. Looks like bringing them in would fix that problem and take some tension off of them as well.

[airmobile101]

Guys, its just slapped together at this point. Nothing is even tightened down yet. Thats why the helms are sticking way out on top. I barely have them threaded in.

I'm gonna stick with the 450r frontend. I did some tweeking last night and got everything looking good. No more binding.

[airmobile101]

Frontend is pretty much done with the exception of me notching out the area for the tie rod ends to clear and these bad boys:D

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/001-3.jpg

[airmobile101]

Ok, had to do a little grinding instead of the notching. The tie rod end was catching the frame. Simple fix. Took my Dremel to it and maybe removed 1/16 of material off.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/002-5.jpg

[airmobile101]

I was under the assumption that I had 450r brake pads. Well I don't !!!!!!! Had to order some, so I'm done for the day. Beer time!:cool:

I also ordered his numbers today from BRM Offroad. Should look pretty sweet when this all comes together.

[miniquaddad90]

We just used a washer under the inner tie rod end to shim it up so it doesnt rub. Looking good! :cool:

Ha! You told me that! I didn't have any washers to use and I was too lazy to drive to the hardware store. lol

[airmobile101]

Ok, I'm a night bird and I work nights. So I got bored @ 3AM and I decided to throw on the 450r calipers. The brake pads are shot,but I needed to swap the steel braided lines around and re-bleed it. This thing is gonna be bad ***!

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/002-6.jpg

[airmobile101]

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/001-4.jpg

:D

[airmobile101]

More than likely, I will probably swap hubs with the 400ex hubs since the 400ex hubs are red. Just not sure if they will work or not,but I think they will.

[airmobile101]

Ok, the frontend is done! Well, its a starting point at least. Tie rods are still loose since I need to adjust that off the rear. And I need to swap the front tires around. lol

glad to see your excited about the build. These little bikes are super fun....i wish they made it less expensive to build these so more folks could enjoy it ..... I no i busted my bank account on Holleys

[miniquaddad90]

Front end looks MUCH better! Tom @ KOQ offered me a pretty good deal on the 2nd gen arms in trade for ours so we might be sticking with the KOQ stuff, we'll see, were going tomorrow to check out and ride the new Rator 125 :devil: The rappy made a pretty good showing at the NY GNCC :eek:

HAHAHAHA! I told him I had you on Facebook and seen the pic of it. He did mention that you did have the 1st GEN. IDK..... If Tom is willing to go all out and do that, then maybe thats the logical choice bro.

[miniquaddad90]

We'll decide after checking out the Raptor 125 and Im stopping by JB Racing to see his arms too. Do you still need the 300ex front spring? BTW- I want those R.S. ball joints, got some 400ex arms that I can use them on for our 250x

Swamp, This thing is running me in cost every bit as much as my DVX400 and my 450R to build. As of right now, I am a tad bit over $5000.00 including the bikes price. So if I keep this under $6000.00(which I should), then I will be happy!

Yea, just measure it first! This Cobra shock has a VERY stiff spring on it. The RS are yours bro!

[trompen542]

your parts went out by fedex this morning, so you will have somthing to do this weekend :), its looking good so far. let me know if you have questions on the swing arm.
Tom @ KOQ racing

[airmobile101]

Hell, I don't even know if this is gonna work or not, but its worth a shot. If not, I'm gonna be calling Fox and just order a Fox Float with remote ressi. I might have to trim the battery box for this sucker to clear! lol

I attempted to slap on a Predator 90 rear spring on it, but the Predator 90 spring was too tightly wound at the base for it to clear the bottom clevis of the shock.

Good deal! Its gonna have to wait until Monday since I work the weekends. lol! Thanks Tom.

[airmobile101]

Well..... Blingstar has stopped making the Iron Cross bumpers for mini's. Anybody have suggestions????? NO DG! THOSE ARE UGLY AS SH*T!

[miniquaddad90]

I still see some Blingstar bumpers on ebay from time to time. I personally like the PRM bumper, we have a Rath on ours but I think it's ugly, too mx-ish and almost non funtional

hmmmmm.......... for some dumb reason, I never thought about a PRM!

[miniquaddad90]

Check it out! Killer front end coverage! Both of our front down tubes are crushed big time even with a full frame skid, they wouldnt be if I spent the extra $$ on the PRM :(

[airmobile101]

WHAT ABOUT NERFS?

[miniquaddad90]

KOQ or Rath have some killer nerfs. We have the usual DG Alloy series which have been good, just stock pegs, no heel guards, blah looking but basic protection

[airmobile101]

I see some XRF nerfs mounted on TRX90'S, but I went to the site and they dont have them listed. I wonder what quad they are actually for.

[miniquaddad90]

I've seen some AC pro peg eton/kasea style on the hondas before too. The AC's would be super ez to mount up just not sure how much boot clearence u'll have. I'll send u a pic, we have a set at home but never even held them up to our honda before

Tom, just a tad too rich for my blood at the moment. But thanks for the offer.

[airmobile101]

Ok, I have a Rath bumper on the way! Just the standard MX bumper! Same thing we ran on the Kawasaki!

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/sale1.jpg

[swamp]

AC makes some awesome nerfs they are for the 250 and you have to weld tabs to make them fit let me find a picture......
you can kinda see them there but they fit....

http://www.traylors.com/imx/race/09/3palms_aug/gcqra/12.jpg

[airmobile101]

When you say tab, is it something I can do with a MIG welder, or is it a aluminum tab that I need take to a welder?

[swamp]

oh sorry what i meant was a weld (mig) a smaller piece of pipe on the frame one on the front and one where the peg goes. I am running rath bars on the bike now just not real happy with them.. The pegs are really good just not thrilled with the design of the bar

[airmobile101]

If its mild grade steel, then I can weld it!:D

[airmobile101]

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/001-5.jpg
This is something miniquaddad90 and I discussed last night on the phone. That air filter isn't gonna be enough. The air filter cage is super restrictive. I got some No-Toil stock filter laying around. So I plan on opening up the asre end of this thing, but leave enough on the cage to were I can still use the clamp system.

[swamp]

[airmobile101]

Ok, I got the KOQ swinger and the KOQ antivibe clamp. So the build will resume tomorrow morning with pics when I get off work:D

[tomtom79]

Great pics I can't wait to see the finished product.

[airmobile101]

Ok, so I'm gonna hold off on the swinger today, but I did install the KOQ antivibe clamps. Pretty nice clamps. The only issue I had was trying to figure out how I was gonna mount the ignition switch and the neutral light. I had a spare idiot light holder I modded a tad and it worked.

ALL DONE WITH THE CLAMPS!

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/008-3.jpg

[airmobile101]

Ok, I started to tackle the swinger. Not to bad of a install,but I had to grind down that shaft that the swinger bolt goes thru. Other than that. It was pretty painless.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/013-1.jpg

[airmobile101]

Not sure yet if this Fox shock is gonna work. I had to mount it backwards so I could clear the battery box. Still need to shim up the lower clevis with some spacers.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/014-1.jpg

[trompen542]

Try mounting it with the resi at the bottom pointing back see if everything clears, I have seen them done that way with other manufacturers shocks. Make sure the total shock compressed is not shorter then 10.5 inches. it is looking good so far:D
Tom @ KOQ racing

[airmobile101]

Yea, its been kinda a last minute hustle with this thing. Everything is getting tossed on for fit. If you noticed, that lovely LSR carrier has a lovely rusted grease zirk.......... Something I need to attend too. Axle is dirty, aluminum needs cleaned, etc.....

Still waiting on a few things at the moment. 400EX swing chain guide, UPP Banshee rear chain guide, 400EX/450R brass bushing. Rebel Gears rear sprocket(50T) DG nerfs.And a big bore kit from a certain person.Damn Ohio people slacking! roflmao!

Things I got today, Rath bumper, D.I.D. STANDARD NON- ORING CHAIN, and a LSR Parking brake blockoff plate.

Tom, I will call you tomorrow. I have zero freaking clue to how this master cylinder brackets are suppose to mount up???? Granted, I was gonna try a 450r master cylinder,but hell........... I have no idea just how to install the brackets!

Tomorrows game plan, gonna try powdercoating the rear hubs and the bumper. I might hold off on that until I get the quad totally built.

[miniquaddad90]

The slacker's wife hooked u up! She went to post office and got me a flat rate box for your kit. DONT do the Banshee slider, your gonna need a skid plate running XC, I'll send you some pics of our "top secret" swinger skid plate with built in slider!

What do you need a 400ex brass bushing for?
Dont forget to put a grease fitting on that swingarm pivot!

[airmobile101]

Ok, I just got done putting the front bumper on and all I can say was that was a biatch!!!!! We went with the Rath bumper mainly because thats what my son wanted to use again, but it sucked installing. After spending a few hours jacking with it and still not able to line up the holes of the frame, upper a-arm bracket, and the bumper, I decided to cut a piece of 2x4 and wedge the damn thing into the bumper to widen the mounts on it. Simply amazing, it all lined up once I did that. Make sure you loosen the u-bolt clamps also, that also helped.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/002-9.jpg

[airmobile101]

Loosen both sides of the U-BOLTS.

[airmobile101]

Ok, I mounted the rear 450r brake caliper, but I'm still waiting on the CR125 slave cylinder. Also, Im having an issue with the chain lining up with the front and rear sprocket. I have some spacers that I tried and they will work and lines it up nicely,but my bolts wont clear the LSR carrier, so I have to wait until the OEM sprocket bolts arrive.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/002-10.jpg

[airmobile101]

Don't know if you can see it in the pic or not, but I shot a laser directly down the center of the chain starting with the front sprocket. It was off by over a 1/4". Granted, maybe its something that I did wrong with the swinger install, or the LSR carrier doesn't like a stock 400ex axle..............lol

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/003-8.jpg

[airmobile101]

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/001-11.jpg

[airmobile101]

Ok, Im amazed what you can find at the hardware store. Got the spacers and sprocket bolts installed. I have some stainless steel ones coming from McCallister-Carr in a day or two. This is a temp. setup.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/005-5.jpg

[airmobile101]

With the spacers installed. Need to get a 50mm bolt so I can install the sprocket guard. And I also need to find a steel rear sprocket. One hour of non-stop racing will destroy that aluminum sprocket in a heartbeat.

http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm242/TimmyRuark/004-7.jpg

[trompen542]

Hi did you say you used a 450 brake and carrier? with a 400ex axle? there is a 1/8 inch difference between them, one is 6 1/4, and one is 6 1/8 check to see if this is correct for chain alignment, also you need to put your front slide on, and level the swing arm to check the adjustment. if you have a question on anything give me a call
Tom @ kids on quads.

[airmobile101]

400ex stock axle, LSR 400ex carrier, 450r caliper Tom. Yea.... Im still waiting on the 400ex chain guide thanks to Bike Bandit:grr:

[airmobile101]

I'm getting excited!!!!!:D

[airmobile101]

Ok, after a long talk with Tom yesterday, I got the chain issue lined out. It appears I really needed to torque on that axle nut to suck in the sprocket hub. So I apologize for my ignorance.:D

Ok, We are just about done, just waiting on a few things. Heres some pics

Good news the nerfs came in along with all the other stuff minus the rear CR125 master cylinder. The bad news......... I need 2005 and earlier footpegs...... Still waiting....... Oh, positive note, the exhaust header clears the nerfs, so no modding the nerfs to make them fit:D

[trompen542]

I have a set of older pegs on ebay, for 10.00, call me if you need them
Tom @ KIDS ON QUADS

[airmobile101]

I have some coming Tom, thanks. I got to take it out today and ride it. For a stock bore 90, that thing has some arse!!! lol Gotta do a little front end tweeking, but I think we are just about there:D

Well...... after jacking with this rear brake cylinder mount for over two hours today, I decided we are just gonna run a hand brake for the rear brakes. Can't get the brackets to line up for crap. I tried a 05 450, 03 cr125, and a 2004 cr125 rear master cylinder.

The end result is the same with all of them. Either the top bracket isnt long enough or the bottom bracket drops the pedal wayyyyy to low. I cant even get both brackets mounted with the cylinder at the same time.

Maybe the 2006 and newer have a higher mounting point for the rear plastic were the top bracket is suppose to mount???????

[trompen542]

did you get the right master cylinder, like we talked about? shoot me some pictures, this has been a consistent with all of the honda frames, those mounts are never in the same spots.

[airmobile101]

Its the right one(s) Tom. Its cool....... I got off my lazy arse and I fabbed up a bracket from aluminum.

[airmobile101]

Ok, fabbed up a bracket and it does the job. Just one problem..... Damn CR125 cylinder is shot, so I will toss on the other I have later today when I wake up.

You sure the master is "shot"? I have to use a vac. bleeder on ours everytime the system is opened up. I like the bracket you made! Never cared for the original brackets that came with the kit, they work but I prefer something more solid.

Yep......

[airmobile101]

Ok, I got one of the CR125 master cylinders to work. It only took me three hours to bleed the son of biatch!:eek2: We are pretty much done with the exception with me installing the sprocket guard and the skid plate for the frame. Ohhh........ and a 114cc big bore kit that somebody is slacking on to send me.:D

[airmobile101]

Blingstar rotor guard.Hence............ Another reason for running 450r parts;)

[airmobile101]

Take it everything worked. I have a new one of those vents to get rid of too. Forgot the Outlaw side cover is vented to airbox when I ordered everything. Don't cut that too short. Dan says his pukes some oil.

[airmobile101]

Its suppose to puke oil. Its gonna get ran to the chain for extra lube:D Well.... I had to use that piston from you. I tried the DRATV 54MM HC piston, but I wasn't able to get the damn cam chain back on with a stock head and all the extra base gaskets.
So I ran the TB piston and I think I could have gotten away with running no base gaskets on it at all. I ran a 2mm piece of solder in the spark plug hole and manually turned the engine over with no clearance issues. Ohhh well.........

[airmobile101]

Soon:D

We ran DG nerfs. We had to run older style foot pegs for them to work. The newer models have the footpegs installed on the floor boards. And that doesn't work.

[airmobile101]

fyi......... we have been very pleased with Tom's LT setup. This is by far the best bang for the buck since its narrower than any other LT TRX90 kit on the market. Does it need tweaking??? Yes,but thats with any aftermarket part for the most part.

so you ordered dg nerfs for a 04 and older trx90? I like the way they look..I ordered a set of dg's but they dont come around the back side of the foot peg like that..And the foot pegs were off a 04 and older?

[trompen542]

Kids on Quads has pro peg nerfs, built just like the big boy nerfs, with replaceable pegs, and straight bolt on, no welding, to weaken your frame.

[trax28to]

cant swing the 400.00...:eek:

[trompen542]

They are built exactly like an adult pro peg, and not like other mini nerfs out there, that don't fit the bigger kids, at a much lower cost, then the adult prices.
