[JHF219]

[OutlawEX]

i think im going to be building a YZF quad but im going to wait and see what yamaha pulls off if its worth a sh** then i might get one if not then im building my own but also i wouldnt mind having a CRF quad

John informed me last night that they just did a test fit of a CRF450 motor into a prototype of their new CRF450 frame and that it fit great :) No other information right now but I will keep you posted.

Once they get the prototype done and how he wants it they should start making a bunch of them. Also Yamaha is releasing 2004 models next Wednesday so we will see...

I looked into my crystal ball, and it tells me that the new Yamaha-ha-ha-ha will be a decent motor with acceptable stock suspension in a chassis that wouldn't last a 30 minute moto at Muddy Creek.

I think you might just as well save your money for the Arens chassis.

maybe you should try and finish the quad you got before starting your next one.

Hahahaha....tell'em Forum.


Spoke to John, he says he hopes to be welding the frames together in 2 weeks.

how hard would it be to put a YZ426 motor in this 450F chassis ?since you all have built these what all is going to be involved if i try to put that motor in ?!

Click the link in my sig for the basics.:)

[Dave400ex]

I can't believe you would spend $1,250 then weld on it to fit a YZ426. If you don't already have a motor, why not get the CRF? It should be easier to put a YZ in the CRF Frame than it is a stock one...

[JHF219]

read my sig i have the motor !!

Why do people freak out when you say the word "weld" and atv "frame" in the same sentence? You guys do know the frames are in fact welded already?:D

Yeah, Bubsy, but I'm sure you've seen SOME peoples' idea of "welding." LOL Some frames look like they were put together with JB Weld!

[Dave400ex]

I wasn't freaking out, just more surprised you spend that kind of money to only modify it for something else. To each there own, but if the welder is good, shouldn't be any problems...
