Looks great - Get in touch with me if ya need more aftermarket Z400 stuff - I have a TON of it...

[bigboy03]

Great color will look great with your new silver plastic. Can hardly wait to see it all together.:cool:

Hey Spincr, Are you going to have it all back together for TX? Have you got your frame back yet? If you need some help putting it together let me know!

[Pappy]

looking at that hood i think the color you want your frame will be too light:confused:

The hood actually looks black until the light hits it, It just an accent piece, not really wanting to match it up with the frame.
Is Burgard's thru with the frame yet?

[Pappy]

not sure, i call him on thursdays to schedule whats done so i can shoot on fridays. im assuming we are still good to go and ill knock yours out tomarrow....:devil: pink correct;)

[Pappy]

btw...i love that blue in that hood. i tried calling them for the last 2 days and i was gonna ask about a dark blue for my R. does the blue only show in direct light:?

That's gonna look saweeet, spincr! I like your plastic and hood. Good choice in colors.

You still coming to H/M in March? I can't wait to see it in person.

[Chino]

looks good sphincter, can't wait to see it on one of these hatfield rides ~

[spincr4hire]

thanks Dawg, I'm going to try to make that one. You gonna let peeps stay at your house if the weather is like 5 degrees?

Chin-nutz, you coming to that ride?

[Chino]

spinchter, prolly the summa ride and fall one if they have it. cant get off work for this first one, your rebuilds gonna look sweet. im hoping to get mine "complete" soon ~

[dads400ex]

Pappy, do you ship the frames by UPS and if so about what does that run, a buddy of mine bought a frame from a guy and he said that UPS will not ship it (which I don't believe), sorry this was not about the post.

Hey spinc, that is going to be one good looking quad when you get it back together. Good work Pappy.

[Pappy]

they will ship them. a 400ex has to have the sub removed and shipped seperate or fastened inside of the main frame. it usually runs about $40 or under depending on where you are shipping too. R frames, and banshee's ...well ya gotta fudge the numbers to keep it under the limit by an inch or two:D but i havent had any troubles. i shipped over 90 frames last year and ups hauled them all.

the post office will also ship them....same with fed ex. most of the time if you try and box a frame it exceeds the size limits.

[dads400ex]

Thanks Pappy.

[Motoman440]

Lookin sweet there Spince!!! That freakin hood is awesome with the colors you have choses!!! Did you do any engine work???

[spincr4hire]

thanks Motoman, no motor work...yet

[spincr4hire]

I have black and chrome checker coming for the dales, thanks to Jeff@Quadshop


ben

[Evan400ex]

hey brian, you put together a pretty sick ride. i personally like the skull graphics better. I was wondering if you have done any engine work to your Z yet?? Getting my motorwork done is probably the best thing i've done to my 400.:devil:

[bigboy03]

i like the skull graphics. It all looks sweet. Thanks for letting me take it for a ride tonight buddy! That is one hot bike!!!!:macho

[spincr4hire]

thanks for the help bb.
Evan, no motor work...yet
I think all it needs is an intake cam to really wake it up, and maybe a port & polish.

[bigboy03]

Anytime, I enjoyed it.:macho
