Nice project! Was this an 80 to begin with, or did you bore it to 80? I have an 03 KFX50, would like to consider some more power at some point.

No...it's an 80 (my avatar is a pic of the quad the day I bought it) with a Moore motor and "other" mods to make it worthy of the "R" designation.


In my mind, the greatest limiting factor on these machines is the chassis...so I spent considerable time formulating a plan to get the biggest bang for the buck in that area...but power is always a nice to have as well, just as long as the chassis can handle it and the brakes can slow it down...

1st ever frame fab and PC...came out far better than expected (still needs clear top coat, but all that does is give it more bling )...I show it to my son and all he could say was "It's about time...")


No good deed goes unpunished!!!
