pappy- i think the only other quad you have yet to have is a crf 450 or a yz conversion, are you planning on doing this or just sticking with already made quads, its nice to see you always getting new quads adds to the excitement on what you are going to get next

I can't wait to see it finished Pappy. I just love your work! Did you ever get the 400 winter rebuild done (I asume you did), I never got to see the finished product. Got any pictures of it? thanks

Pappy you are out of control. I too wish Honda would make something with a 450, 440, or anything faster then the 400 now is with better shocks, and just all around better everything and new technology.

the 425 is almost ready. the chrome stuff is finally done...the rims are all here...i cant think of anything else i need except UPS to finish bringing me parts:p rick and I will button the engine as soon as the hinson case comes back from the polishers. then its all over but the break in:macho i assure you its worth the wait;)


the R will be done fairly fast....if all goes well maybe like a month and she will be rippin up stuff:devil

since it's ganna be a mild mannered quad,

Why not build us/the site a stock looking 250R, with a touch of pappy....BAMM!!
RED 88R' plastic, and WHITE graphix.
use all stock 88' colored body work.
full fender's with a white hood scoop,
red seat, with white "PPC" lettering.
displacment on the tank in WHITE

add some chrome, and
powder the frame WHITE.

just an idea,
i like stock 88's.

Pappy
05-15-2003, 01:28 AM
i was gonna do the frame red....but i saw a R at rausch that was black frame...swing arm and lower a arms....it knocked me off my feet....so thats where the color scheme is comin from:)

lookin good, is that columbias mirrior black?

Pappy
05-16-2003, 08:49 AM
i didnt gusset this frame. my plans are actually to purchase an aftermarket from a member of the site and sell this one. this was a cherry frame.....no cracks or dings....and the owners didnt jump it at all. thats one reason for black....if it does crack i can fix it and touch it up until i stripped the frame down again.
