Looking good! I really like the black and red scheme you've got going on there. Are you rebuilding the motor stock? Any other upgrades? Trailrider230s got me hooked on the lt250r front shocks and warrior rear shock. I got them for a very reasonable price on ebay and its probably the best money I've spent on mine! I run a uni air filter with dg rcm exhaust and although it is loud it is a very noticeable increase in power. Keep us posted!

I'm not so sure that vince is still in the parts business anymore but give him a call, can't hurt to check and he's a super nice guy to deal with too. Try bikebandit.com or maybe even denniskirk or rockymountain. I need to order a couple spares as well so I'll let you know what I come up with.

I called him and he said he's out of the parts area of it and has a couple of the LT230 parts left and just doing service now. I have another question if someone can help. I'm having a problem figuring out what spot does the 2 copper washers go in on the cylinder head.
