Very nice! The graphics tie it all together very well. The end pictures is what I don't miss... cleaning!

Thanks Dave. Always enjoyed watching your builds. The cleaning part does suck.

Bike looks really nice. The blue/red combo looks really nice! Nice build!
Good luck in AWRCS this year.
Looks awesome. Cut a small hole in the ends of those gauntlets, and run the bar end bolt through it. It will keep them from falling like they did.

A tip to for your Powermadd Gauntlets. Either cut a hole in the side of them and zip tie them to your handguard wraps or actually mount them to your handlebars by having the bolt go through them. I also ductape them where the band pulls through to tighten them to ensure they dont fall down during a mud race. Liking the Teixeria Tech stuff!

Ahhh Dustin you beat me too it lol. I love the simplicity of this build and how all of the pictures are together. It looks great. Keep your 04/05 forever haha.

Thanks for the compliments guys
I dont usually run the gauntlets but it was 34 degrees and sloppy that first race so i put them on last minute before the race. i usually zip tie them on the sides just wasnt prepared that race.
Thanks Legacy...you racing AWRCS?
