I was kind of disappointed in the end result. It's a cool bike, I just think the paint scheme is a real disappointing factor and the bike really doesn't have much style. Overall it's pretty cool though...just not what I would've done personally.

As for the Style aspect. I have less than $1k into the entire bike. I wasnt going to spend over 1k on new plastics since I was in the middle of building another race car.

The paint matches my wifes race car. And you dont see the flake in the pics. Also it gets a ton of attention at events.

During the Winter, I will be redoing the entire bike. Another rear swing arm that will allow an 8" wide wheel & Drag slick. New color scheme also since I am going to be painting her new car Black. Also possibly a larger engine. Even though this one will do close to 100mph in the 1/4.

Thanks though.

Yeah.. The last one I built had a YZ125 engine in it on the bottle and went 10.22 @122mph in the 1/4. Hoping to better that time.

Air cooled YZ 125 motor at the time. We could get 3-4 passes on a motor with the nitrous. I have a friend that has one with a CR500 motor in his and it runs low 12's stock.
