I sanded the places where the paint was peeling with #40 sandpaper. It left big gashes and "strings" of plastic sticking up like hair. I figured the paint ought to stick to that! But, its taking forever to get enough coats of poly on to make it flat and smooth again. I can only get a coat or two a day because of drying time. I'd say I'm about halfway with the plastics. But once the plastic is done, its done.

So, we had a bit of a camping/bonfire type get-together this weekend. Right before heading off into the woods, I decided to put the quadsport in the garage for the night. I fired it up and spun around the yard, did a few wheelies, etc and pulled in the garage. My friend said, "That all that thing has, lol". I said, "Yup, that's it".
Well, later we was at the fire and he says, "dollar for dollar and pound for pound those 250/230's are about the most fun you can have on 4 wheels."
I said, "yeah, now you see why I just want a 270 kit to have the perfect quad."
He said, " I noticed yours seems to have a lot more power than it did last time I saw it. This time it was pulling the front end up with ease, but last time you were yanking your arms out to bring the front up."
I said, "Not sure what the difference is... Could be I had the 32mm carb on last time. Now I have the 28 and have it all tuned up right. Nothing else has really changed."
We decided much more power than this is just a hazard. There's just nowhere to ride that fast here except on he road. And then the weight of the quad goes up with the power output, so that takes from the fun-factor. I don't know.... I know I was going fast enough today to make tears in my eyes. When dancing with trees, that's about as fast as I care to go. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

What about your arms? My friend broke his arm last fall and broke his thumb the year before. He says he's not going to ride in september anymore. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
The thumb was a $20,000 surgical deal. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Haven't gotten the total on the shattered bones in the arm yet.
