Sweet! What year is that ? Here is an 87' that I did some powdercoat work on for a buddy. I think it came out pretty good!

I seem to remember seeing that one on ebay, or listed in a thread for sale? Nice lookin T4, BTW. Mine is an 87, easiest way to tell the different years (unless modified at some point-both years offered green plastics, but only 88 for white) is look at the lower a-arms up front, the 88 had "gull-wing" style lowers, and the 87 had straight only.

Yeah, it was on ebay and he relisted it so it is probably still on ebay:) Thanks for the info on how to tell the years apart!

Sweet, I love those Tecates, I do see why the white is so expensive, I love the white, compared to the green! But the green looks sweet aswell.

Yep, they kinda fast. My buddy got a real nice R and we ran em up the road other day....the R is race ported, big carb, topend pipe, aftermarket reeds K&N and I took him up thru 4th. After that he pulls me in and passes .....but NOT by much. I would say not bad for a basically stocker (fmf pipe/silencer v-force reeds)
I am gettin ready to find another cyclinder to do some portwork on. See how and if it opens it up some. Thanks for the nice comments, BTW I am selling the 350EX. I kinda messed myself up real good in a small mishap (10mph rollover) 3rd degree AC joint separation, Lots of road rash and my PRIDE is TOTALLY WASTED. I can't work,( month or so) and need some cash. Lettin it go for $2800 or $3000 with rear beadlocks. Good solid machine. I will post in the classified section.

Well, doc says shoulder will never be the same, with or without surgery. Wife says doesn't matter anyway, I AM DONE with hard riding!!!! She DA BOSS!!! In all seriousness, I cannot afford to get injured.....I am the only income for my family. Things would be real tuff with me all lame. What am I saying, they are about to get a bit tight real soon. Oh well, guess ya live and learn. Too old for this crap anyway! LMAO

You know, if he wasn't so far away I would seriously bring my MX YFZ up there and test his skills. Not saying he can't ride or what ever, but I would love to see it, and I would also love to see a trike actually haul the much @ss around an MX track....:ermm:

I would love to see it, and get lots of pics. I really doubt he is as good as he thinks. He maybe better than I think he is, but I kinda think he has thoughts of his youth running through his brain, and really has NO idea of what today's tech on today's machines is really capable of. Oh well, guess it will stay unproven, either way.
