I still remember you and Vince both saying that you wouldn't trade your 350x's for an R, then you rode mine and changed your mind.
Yeah it is fun, I have not lost any interest the sport.
I have to get my stuff built before I can make a trip and I'm not sure when that will be.

Here is what you need your R to look like Justin..  hehehehe That an R hood I bought on ebay for .01 because it was purple and had all kinds of decals on it. I stripped it, and painted it to sell, but I liked it so much I painted my logo on it and hung it on my wall. |

I'd roll that man it looks cool. I was thinking about doing something different on the hood that matched a traditional looking R or having everything wrapped with something evil looking

No surprises, 2 cracks then another spot that I ground to deep getting rid of the mower deck. Got all of them tig welded today and sand blasted the frame. I welded on some nuts in various locations, I plan to build my own airbox and intake piping, not sure when that will happen. I have long travel shocks being shipped now. I have been looking at long travel a arms, I think I know which ones I'm getting, just waiting on a check from my side job to come in to buy them. I already have a bunch of the small stuff here.
Things I know I still need are twist throttle, new reeds, nerfs, seat cover. Figure out color scheme.
I still need to order, piston, main bearings for 3 wheeler and have it bored. The 310 motor in the 3 wheeler is going in the quad.
As far as looks I was wanting new plastic but I think mine will eventually get 450r plastic.

I kinda prefer the thumb if it is easy to push but I hate having a sore thumb. I had the twist on the 400ex and it was great.
