Here's some updated pics and update on progress. I got my pegs cleared. A few brackets pc'ed. The taillight and rear fender brackets on. The oil tank polished, cleared and mounted. The steering stem installed. The harness I have untaped and disassembled, I have to clean it up and retape it and reroute it. Here's some pics.

Couple more updates. Starting hooking up and rewiring the harness. Pc-Ed the radiator and the clutch side cover. Now that I have the chrome process down.....I'm bout to get to town!

I just ordered a dr. D reverse lever. Anyone have any input on it?

I have one and i love it. Much better than on the fender and very easy to install.

kfxguy · 02-06-2012, 04:54 PM

Figured I might as well do it while it's apart.

bparks23 · 02-06-2012, 05:01 PM

Its awesome. You'll love it. Whats that black bar across the subframe with the holes in it? is that for the older models only?

That's the tail light bracket. I don't think it's removable on newer models. I cut mine and made it shorter and narrower then drilled holes in it. You know, every ounce counts.

bparks23 · 02-06-2012, 06:44 PM

Yeah mine just has two tabs. Thought I was missing something.

kfxguy,

Just got my hubs in! well done SIR! Tossed the bearings and new spacers in and tossed them on the quad. Good to go!

I also got the stickers. I really need to get new fenders and more "show" stuff on here. Much appreciated!

Gremlin · 02-07-2012, 12:25 AM

Good news! Just found out I have a local PCer that can do stuff on the real cheap. Either flat black or gloss black is the only colors they supply. I am going to go talk to them about me bringing them powder if they will do other colors :P

$100 to PC a frame.. or so I am told.

bparks23 · 02-07-2012, 07:07 AM

Dont be surprised if that number changes after they see the frame. Mine went up once I brought it there.

kfxguy · 02-07-2012, 07:45 AM

I'd pay $100 just to sand blast it. Or are they wanting it blasted before you bring it?

What's up with your bar clamps? Are those big @ss washers?
