Haha Alex! I did that with my kids wodden playground. It was raining out so I built it in the garage. Had to dismantle the roof and flip it to get it out. :lol:
can't decide on the motor build....its chillin at yamaha stealership right now to get the cylinder replated and it gonna be 13.5 comp with a hot rod crank....just havent decided if im gonna stroke it or not....if i do it'll be a little stroker like a 2 or 3 mil....don't wanna go too nuts i want it to last more than 1 summer and its for trails....the best part about this is i only paid 1400 for the bike
1600 is a f*ckin deal! Nice one bro. Now you need to get some paddles and make it to silver lake.
it was 1400....so iguess it was an even better deal
I thought you told me 1600, but damn, thats a better deal!
I can't wait to see it at silver lake! :clap:
hopefully ill be able to get away....i wanna come....was probably the most fun place iu ever rode.....minus the flying over test ill the 1st time time thing...lol

prolly not gonna sell it anytime soon unless someone puts at least 6500 cash in my face

selling for nowadays :rofl:
i have.....but remember the only stock components on the bike are the gas tank and the swingarm......and absolutely eevrything is black or copper plate looking powder coat..down to every last nut and bolt...every bearing, seal, bushing etc...is brand new ...not to mention a close to $3k brand new motor being built as we speak
its basically a brand new race bike off the showroom floor
oh yeah....its also got about 30 pounds of weight shaved off it too....i've been removing every unnecessay part off of it and also makin all necessary brackets for it out of 6061 heat treated aluminum.....im lookin to be right around 340 - 350 pounds with a full tank of 109

I'm going to hope you didn't look at everything this bike comes with. That price is not uncommon for what it has. Next time pay attention before posting.
Powdercoating stock pieces isn't going to make you rich. :lol:
It's one of those.. I'll believe it when I see it........
Are you kidding me? You can't read too? There is a lot more then just powder coating.
All he's said so far is.....
"the catch is its in boxes from the powdercoater...winter entertainment...has pretty much everything aftermarket possible"
I see aftermarket shocks (unsure brand)
Aftermarket a-arms not LT.
Pretty sure it's a stock rear shock.
Looks like a stock Swingarm powdercoated.
ProTaper Handlebars.
Motor's in the shop hasn't said what it is or what it's going to be.. only speculation. ???
Maybe I missed what he said is on it in another thread.
He said just about every mod possible, and those are LT arms I think. Plus that engine is going to be a brand new stroker build.
he is correct, asr long travel, frame is gusseted, rath grab bar, blingstar front bumper, ac propeg nerfs, lonestar axle, burgard antivibe chrome stem tag fat bars, laker plastics, asv levers, the guy i got it from said the shocks were tcs, but i cant find another pair of tcs that looks like that, i think they're either axis or pep...triple rate polished cans, dual beadlock hipers with razr 2's(all 4)....etc. and the motor is sporting a 13.5 custom cp piston, hr crank and crower cams with a ported head..... :jaw: :jaw: :jaw:.....i just hope your raptor can keep up
besides i dont wanna sell it.....i wanna beat the piss outta myself trying to stay on it
decided to go stock stroke....high revving mid 60's hp build
any word on gettin the motor back
be done by the end of feb....lil bit at a time....got close to 3g's into the motor......gotta pay for the cylinder plating, labor, and still have to get a billet clutch basket of some sort to take this 60+ hp toy
