Well, I decided that since I want to try and "attempt" to race a few races next year, I should probably get my frame gussetted. Along with a blown head gasket, I figured this was the perfect time for a rebuild. Anyways.... Been working on it for about 2 months now and here is what I have so far. Hopefully I can start putting it together again (aside from the motor) this weekend.

And so you can get a feel:

A good friend of mine is also designing some custom graphics and numberplates for the bike. Should look good.

 

I still have alot of work to do on the motor, but being it was a nice day I decided to start throwing the quad together to see how it's going to look. All in all, it was a decently productive day.

Here's the pictures:

looking good. I know how you feel It took me close to 2 years to build my quad the way I wanted it. I spent 1 day taking it apart
and almost 2 months waiting for parts and powder coating and 2 days to reassemble it to finish it
