Update on my Walsh YZ rebuild

[gtilley45]

It's finally finished so I got a bunch of pics! :cool:

I really wanted a Fox rear shock, but they are still dragging their feet about making the clevis for the CR500 style linkage. I was tired of waiting so I went with my second choice instead which was a Custom Axis with the PRS. That's pretty much the only thing I'd change about this quad if I could, but overall I'm VERY happy with the way it turned out. It looks EXACTLY like how I had it pictured in my head. Anyway.....the pics. :D

Looks great! I really like the graphics, it makes the whole bike flow together nicely.

That's exactly what I said. It ties it all together and I think just kinda finishes it off. I'm glad my designer (my very dear friend Mary Pawloski) was patient enough to keep working with me on the design until we got the graphics just right. Also want to give a huge thanks to EGI in Hummelstown, PA for working with me to get these graphics printed.

Thanks man! Is this Justin?

[SWIGIN]

No, Justin is my boss/riding buddy.

I'm Wayne, the guy who made the HRE 250R graphics.

[gtilley45]

Oh ok. I was dealing with Justin, so I was wondering. But yeah, I'm very happy with the graphics.

WOW !!!!

I'd say this is one of the best looking quads I've ever seen.

Great job on the build.

[gtilley45]

Thanks man, I really appreciate that!

As tempting as that is, I'll have to decline. LOL

I don't think I could buy a comparable quad for that and I'm not ready to get out of it yet

Haha, not many people actually look at it that way. The guy I bought my Lsr CRF from couldn't sell it. So I picked it up for 2400 with a brand new rebuilt motor..

[gtilley45]

Well that, and I don't have any interest in selling it. So it would have to be a deal I couldn't refuse.
