Looks good man. If i was givin a box of bolts just not in order or anything and all those parts. I would never be able to do it. Well thats becuz i dont work on quads. only bikes. I like that Blingin done by Nacsracer. looks good. how much did it cost ya for that?

[derekhonda]

Well thats all i got until i get my oil tank ressi back, and then it will be ready to ride :D Project was started january 5th so i am more than ready to ride. Im planning on ordering new plastic cause i need a little deeper red, i just set the stock plastic on there and didnt match that great. Well thanks for lookin ill post some more when i get it 100% done, hopefully by this weekend

nacsracer did it surprisingly cheap, pm him you might be surprised at his rates.

oh yeah i also forgot to mention payne r2k (i think :confused2 ) i bought the nice shockwears off of him and i think thats all the exriders members i used, i did use C&D for a few miscellaneous items)

Sorry for the stupid question, but if you were to get mudd on those polished side cases.. does the shine go away? i dont know about that stuff. is it just some stuff you rub on it and it gets shiny? like i said dumb question but i dont know how good it holds up.:confused:

[Pappy]

lookin real good:)

[batgeek]

lookin good!

i think if you got some black anodized beadlocks front and back, or chrome beadlocks, and some 19" mx holeshots front and 18" MX-R's rear that thing would really look like a racer, and some.....dark red or black fullbore plastic would really set it off. even if you dont thats a better bike than i can ever think of having...good job on the project all that time really payed off for you

[Bretmd94]

I like the ATV jack, I have the same one. Most usefull tool i have ever bought.

Quad looks badass though. :macho

[Nausty]

polish the rezzies and it'll be sic. Looks GREAT. Also i'm not sure if you know but you can polish your calipers too. Still it looks awsome the way it is.

[derekhonda]

thanks guys, i have decided on black plastic (probably go meijer) and a red black and white sticker kit if i can find one. No i didnot know i could poilish my brake caliper, that will get done next it lookes terrible. Im not gonna stick 18 an 19" tires on there just cause i built it for trails mostly, i put softer shocks on and only stretched the arms 1" so it wouldnt be that great on a track. Next on my list is the plastic and a sticker kit, then probably an axle, and then i really dont know, probably new rims and possibly new tires, but as for right now its a waitin game.....

[QuadJunkies]

its lookin good!!!:cool:

[racin 400]

hey i ran warrior front tires on 400ex rims before and they sucked big time i would use stock. btw the 400 looks good.

[derekhonda]

those arent stock warrior front tires if thats what you mean
