Tell us what your project is for this winter? It can be a atc, atv, snowmobile, truck, etc. Whatever you are working on this winter and tell us what you have in mind for the project, big bore motor, pipes, matching cases, etc. Whatever !! Tell us about it!!

I myself will be taking down one of my 85 big reds and will be going down to the frame. The frame, tank, triple tree, skid plates, racks, will all be powder coated the factory oem colors. I have now acquired all the oem plastics, grips, stickers, kill switch, fork boots, mud flaps, etc. This will be a mint restore, there will never be any gas or oil in this trike when i am done. It is strictly a show bike, and a special gift to my son's. The other big red will be next winter.

I have been thinkin about freshening up my 400ex. I am gonna leave the plastics yellow but thinking of doing the frame and a-arms anodized blue P/C, and the swing arm dark red like a laegers looks like. Destin will be racing all winter and with maintaining his I don't think I will have time to do much cosmetic work on it. It will have a set of mini bend fat bars on it though. Hopefully that will be pretty quick as I have already got the clamps. If I can come up with some flat track tires I will be racing also, but no luck on any used ones so far...lol

Trying to locate a used rear fender for my motorcycle, so I can start the body work and get it painted this winter. Ive got everything else, just cant find a rear fender and dont want to spend over $600 on a new one. One of the downfalls of owning a first year machine, and waiting for others to crash their bikes so I can pick up the scraps.. hehehe.
Other then that, try to finally get the cannondale demons gone and get it running, finish both my drag trikes. Id like to get my 2nd banshee all together, but the chances of that are super low.

Well i have tons of projects to work on, right now im building some cool stuff for the trike, and eventually i would like to pick back up on finishing the rollcage for the escort  School, sports, and a gf take up most of my time, so finishing a project is pretty drawn out.... Speaking of the escort, since noone had heard anything or seen any vids on it i am very sorry. She is still ticking, this summer me and my cousin launched her 30ft (not and exageration, we measured) and cracked the oil pan, so i let her set for a while and eventually fixed her. Now that we consolidated, i have to ride a bus 22 miles to school, so its not as easy to get my projects to class..... Oh yeah, Garret i still have your swingarm, i am totally sorry i haven't got it back to you, its just been sitting collecting dust, if you want it back soon, i can ship it, or you can wait till i see you at the dunes next time or something? drew |

It's no problem so far man, I haven't needed it. My brother may want it for his Z that he's building though. I've got a +6 and a +4 that was gonna be his, but I kinda took it over for mine. His is gonna be stock so he won't need the +6. Whenever you get the chance just send it back to me. I won't be able to get back out on the dunes for awhile. I'm still waiting for powdercoat on the Z and have to do some repairs to the 350X. Those are my winter projects and also trying to get the new motor in my truck.
