Default 85' LT230s finally Complete (Race setup)

Here is my girl all grown up and complete. She stays right up there with the raptor's on the track and handles her own on the trails.

87' Banshee rear shock (full adjust)
2" drop on rear (perfect handling) 9 3/4" height total dry.
3" wider front 41.6" with offset rims (LT250r fliped and pluged).
Motor rebuilt left stock with air box off and jetted right. does about 58 mph 13/40 gearing.

Looks good did you do away with the decompression lever altogether? I never use mine anyway...

The pipe is a 5XC9 off a YZ250F cut at end with pipe fitting from auto parts store as for the chain guard I made my own welded and modded steel with skate board wheel shaved 1" down the center my chain has never fell/slipped off. The decompression lever I never used and took off looks a little cleaner. The carbon fiber is just a wrap until i get new fronts on it. I just put 86 LT250r shocks on the front as of 7-5-12.
