It talks about how you rebuilt your 400 witha 425cc engine and TC racing parts and has a pic. ANd about the project 400 Its got a bunch of pics and talks about how it was built and has a big group picuture with everyone at Rausch Creek before the test ride. It also talks about The site and really pramotes it.

Great pics Pappy. What happened to the grey plastic?
Did you ever get a chance to throw a leg over it? That would be torture to make you run around taking pics and not get a turn on the gas. I'd like to hear some feedback on the 463.

Pappy
10-18-2003, 09:51 PM
i havent riden that 463 but i have other FDO 463's. they are a handful...i like'em:D


the laker custom is still with us.

10-18-2003, 09:55 PM
how is that lsr frame? good bad..junk or what ive heard lots of mixed opinions on them

Pappy
10-18-2003, 09:58 PM
i think the frame is pretty cool. any aftermarket frame will eventually crack...ive seen them all crack. the finish was good on the lsr...and it appears to be a decent frame. i think if i was to buy one from them it would be the baja chassis just for a bit more strength.

yeah same here, i think alot of people get the less built ones like the rec or mx and have problems with em cuz there built lighter, is the crf chassis available in baja?

Boy, I really like the lines on that Laker plastic. Almost a cross between 400EX and 250R. All that puppy needs now is a set of paddles:D :macho

I guess that there will be an update(s) to the project page with details?? That is, as soon as they increase days to 25 hours and weeks to 8 days so Harlen can get some more time for all his to do's. Workin, racin, web site, talk about having 10 lbs of sh!! and a 5 lb bag.

I agree, it looks awesome.

harlen is a big boy and he can handle it:p

the laker custom isnt bad plastic at all...and for mx or tt and the dunes it would be pretty sweet to have....they wouldnt let me try it out in the woods so i cant say how tree bashing would be on it:devil:

LMAO, you say that like it's inevitable that you would have performed that test on it. I think you just answered my question on why you didn't get a chance to ride it. :eek:

Wow, Pappy! Congrats on the ATVSport article! Good for you, good for the site, good for all us dudes!

This begs the question.....Why the frick have I not gotten my mag in the mail? I subscribe, yet I think the post office pimps read it before I do. Time to have a little chat with Joe the mailman, lol!:devil:
