YES!!! It is in my basement!! The only thing missing are the fenders but I borrow a set from Richard until I get the orange stuff. I am running Axis, RPM, Lonestar, Gibson, all the good stuff.
Only drove it once, but it goes!! Need some turfs yet, don't like Holeshots. I don't know yet if I will go to Paisley, need to practice a little first. Picked up a digital cam tonight , will make some pics tomorrow but I don't know how to post them. Maybe I'll send them to FORUM and he can put them up.

honda400ex_racer@hotmail.com

damn i found out today that my stuff won't be in till end of this week(if i am lucky) or next week... so i hope it don't rain, or else it won't be traction happy for me!!!

pratice,who needs it (expect for me)... just show up and rip that track apart... i want to see banks face when you pass him...:eek:

o and for the nationals, you think Jasmine Plante is going to show up?? doubt it, but it would be sweet... i didn't know he was running a crf this year either, damn it is nice too.. freaking 2nd in the holeshot at Macon behind JJ, Plante got potentail...

Took some pics today, waiting for them to arrive by e-mail from my friend. Put some turfs on the rear today, and made Richards old plastic fit. Talked to Frank Schuster tonight, I might just go to Gopher this Sunday and set up the bike and get some miles on the old body. Can't stand listening to Bank all weekend!!
He bought a YZ450f and switched motors, but found out it doesn't work without some major surgery!! It is at Tennysons right now trying to get it in. He thinks it will be waaay faster than the 426 but I doubt 2 ponies are going to make such a difference.
Also the 4 speed tranny would scare me a little.

OMG he put in the 450... man he must have money growing on trees, :eek2: ya the 4 speed doesn't go over to well with me... i remember forum saying that bank was always looking for another gear on the 426... But we will see... is he going to be at Paisley this weekend?

Go to gopher dunes on saturday and get it setup and come up on sunday to race...
Did ECAtv put a headstay mount on the frame??

Also where is a good place to park at paisley?? i don't want to be all surround by dirt bikes, and 3 miles away from the track.. And does the track get rough near the end???

wow bank is nuts. he should just race that raptor if hes worried about power. i bet that 450 wont make much difference at all.
