Well I finished swaping the motors and plastics out today and put a little break in time on the new top end. Pretty happy with it. Should look alot better once I get the black rims swapped in on the fronts. I'll be selling the bone stock engine that came out of this in the f/s section.

Whatchya think?

Looks WAYYY better... so how does it run? Is this going to be a "play" bike?

Thanks guys.

The fenders are just white Maier I think, not 100% sure though.

And Troy, yeah I kinda got real sick of finiky big bore motors so I wanted to get back to something that is reliable. It runs stupid good for an OEM jug. I plan to spend most of my riding time on this bike, in the woods, sand, and dirt. I may have to pick up that sparks pipe from you... would match the port work on this jug nicely! Just need to find some nice front shocks and I'll be done with this one.

Sure I'd sell it. It's in pretty good shape. No rips. Just a little faded on the grey part, other than that pretty nice.


PM me what you're thinking on price for the seat. Thx

What shocks are you looking for? I just sold a real nice set of Custom Axis fronts, but I also have a nice set of works remote rezzies that would make a nice play bike shock... standard travel of course. I'll make you a hellova deal on them... haha...

Looks good Kyle! You need a hood on that thing, to tie in the black seat. :cool:

Thanks.

Can't decide if the black or red hood looks better. Put a new black maier hood on last night. Maybe a white one would look best...

Hmmm..... I like the black best I think.. Need some thing to tie it altogether though I think... Looks good though, either way!

I'm thinking those black front rims are the missing link. Should help me quit spending money on cosmetic bs for this thing! lol

Kyle,

I have a set of black rolled lip ITP's. Sell out right or trade for some rolled lip polished style. :p I think you need black shrouds, too. :D

Just noticed this, is there some type of mud screen mounted to the front of the frame?

Yeah some expanded metal that the previous owner strapped on there...

I've got a set of brand new black front rims, just haven't found time to get them on yet.

You have a set of black shrouds? Maybe some carbon shrouds.

Nope, sold the black Fullbore shrouds. I think Jay at FW might have some CF ones.
