I have added new front razr's, a full exhaust, and a DG bumper since these pics. I still have to pick up a set of plastic for it. I bought this quad as a frame and a pile of parts, and as of right now have 1,480 dollars in it.

Nope , it is a carbon fiber hood scoop , you can't see the metal mesh in the hole cause the pics are to far away.

You just have to make brackets for the front and rear. You will see what you need to make, when you get the plastic. Its not very hard.

I don't know if mine counts but here's my 250X. It has a 250R motor, 400ex swingarm, axle, fenders and 250R a arms. Its only beginning. Still waiting for my LRD pipe and silencer, front race rims with American Racers and I repainted the a arms black. Its all fugly and thrown together right now but when it gets warmer and I sell my 400ex and warrior frames More stuff will come together.

Here's one.............our welder cut my stockers & added in tubing, then made new uppers w/ much heavier duty steel, & for the tie rods he also cut those & added in thicker tubing around the stock ones! ;) These things have held up GREAT when I 1st posted them everybody had a fit but I'll tell you what I've taken some HARD hits this season from the front :rolleyes: & not a one bend dent NOTHIN :D :macho I'm gonna put the 400 shocks on one of these days if I do anymore mx but the stockers work good for me on flattrack.

Those look pretty good. What kinda paint did you use. I dono what it is but your's and westcoastmxer's 300's are my favorites on this site. Very good work. Btw, I race Flattrack too with a Four Stroke Tech 446 Warrior :D. Can't wait to see how well it does in the 400 classes this seasom:eek: :D :macho

Well THANKS NicNaks ;) Glad you like!!! It's just regular ol' spray paint!!! They don't look as good now, I'm gonna be taking them off & repainting someday but they have held up pretty good, we sprayed them w/ about 4 coats then clear coat also. Dang the Warrior sounds mean ya got any pics of it?? I race w/ a gal that rides one, it's just a stocker though, she's a pain in the *** to race w/ LOL her & her sister(400ex) are out there we are always in the same heats & I swear they gang up & try to squeeze play me BUT thats only when they can catch me :blah: We have a video of her on one of our races & you can see she intentionally was trying ot take me out in the turn :eek: :grr: Thats OK though cuz "Rubbin is Racin" & paybacks are a ****** :devil: Good luck in the 400 class, do you race indoors or out??

Your welcome. No pics yet but I'll have some soon. I'll be doing all my racing at www.BETdirt.com Its a pretty nice track. I might do a couple races at some larger more popular tracks but not till I get the Warror tuned in.

Ahh. Thanks for noticing:) . I parted my '88 Warrior out which was set up for MX. Got $2000 outta that, bought and started building a 400ex/250R, sold all those parts and I just bought 446 Stroker Warrior from a friend of mine who's $10,000 Warrior burnt in a garage fire.:(
