did you get my pm?

 

WOW, I'm glad I don't have pictures!!!!!! It's beautiful!!!!!
I'm using all of the stock plastic/ gas tank etc. Nothing fabricated like you've got. Where on earth did you find or buy the exhaust??? I've used the FMF pipe from the bike and altered it to fit the foutrax. I've gotta say that it looks like you went the distance on the machine.
There is not any information on finding exhaust parts etc., did you fabricate it yourself?


I'm extremely impressed and humbled

unfortunantly he is still slow...LOL jk

 

Lol I'm running handy down stocck plastic still. The pipe was made by a pipe shop trinity racing goes through. Its a cone pipe and cost me 300 bones including the crome and silincer. As for the plastics. my brother is very good with metal work. he is going to make me aluminum fenders. (kinda like the sandrail style). As soon as were done with this rail in my garage. Yea I put a lot of time into this project. While I was building it I did not now if I was actully going to walk again. I was paralized from the waiste down from a accident in glamis 2001. I coould not evean walk till the rolling chassis was complete. I now have 2-1/2 yrs into this bike it wont be done till next year.But i will run it a lot this seasion. I have a lot of new plans for this bike. Its handy having a borther as a metal fabractor living next door and my best friend is a machinest and ows 6 cnc machines and is growing. The possibilitys are endless. Well if you need help advice or just need to find a part let me know bro.

 

Man..sorry to here about the mishap and the injury!!!!! I hope that you'll make a full recover. Although by the looks of some of the pictures, your doing good.
Yeah, havin a brother in the fab and a friend in the machinist business is certainly a plus on the building side of the wheeler. Do you guys make parts all the time????
Sounds like you could make some extra cash fabricating crazy parts for wheelers.
I appreciate the offer for information and such, I've got the wheeler taken apart and am already looking at some of the differences from what I can see between your rear mounts and mine. It looks like you didn't push the motor down and use the rear swing-arm pivot mount...I didn't either. But you did keep in line with the rear swing arm pivot on the wheeler..I'didn't. So my motor is setting a bit more forward than yours.

That'll have to be fixed!!!!


Tell me what ya think, and thanks!!!!!

yea be carful. My friend had a rotax quad, custum. the motor mounted at a angle. He was hiting the doudle a galmis by the hill and on on of his passes his bike nutral dropped ( not enought trannie fluid to the clutch) the bike lost all power at the lip and he endowed his bike compound fracturing his wrist. I set my motor the same way angle it sat in the bike. The motor is forward 5 inches from stock. It doesnt handle as good this way but keeps the nose down so I can run a shorter swingarm. Yes I Can make parts but it take a mont or to to make somethig simple like a intake of exhuast flange. My brother friend and I want to start making long travel susp kits for the new line of fourstrokes.
