Default Yamaha Blaster do it yourself for free projects?

Is there any modifications you can do to a yamaha blaster that will improve the visual/performance aspect of the atv. I want to know something that I can do for free as a fun take it apart and modify it project. Or something thats cheap under 50 dollars. When I want to spend money on it ill spend it well but something that will take some time let me learn my bike better and make some cool visual/performance upgrade.

Cut the plastics(race cut). Powder coat frame and other parts. You could gear it to your likeing for cheap.

To gear you just get differant sprockets. If you want it to be quick you put more teeth on the rear sprocket and less on the front. To have more top speed you do the opposite. so basiclly you buy new sprockets with wathever teeth you want. You need a poewder coat machine, sand blaster and oven to do your frame. You can bring it to a paint shop or if you have equipment do it yourself. Get paint on ebay or your local hardware store.

Post something and ask about cutting your fenders. Its pretty easy. Just shorten the front ones and do the same to the other ones. Dont do the rear fenders.
