Re: My ride
I don't protect it. I just threw it together with the expectation that it will get destroyed sooner or later. There is a main radiator behind the seat. If, or when it gets damaged, I can take it out of the system by turning one of the hoses and bypass it. I made it from anodized material that gets brittle when welded. I've had to put rubber gas tank mounts on it since this photo was taken, cause it kept cracking. Its not long for this world, but its working great now. I was just messing arround with another toy when I made it. * * * * *
I built the buggy for atv trails. So I was limited to 50in. wide. *That way I could cross the bridge to the Lincoln Hills trails. *ATV trail vs ORV route. *ATV = more trails. |

Re: My ride
where you at tinman? We're always looking for riding friends, expecially during the week! Its easier us to get away during the week than on a weekend. We're planning to hit baldwin in a few weeks if your interested.

Re: My ride
I'm in Martin. Takes about 2hrs. to get to Club 37. I might have trouble doing that on weekdays, we're getting a little busy right now. But ... that is my favorite time to ride there. *I hate head-on collisions.

Re: My ride
This motor was stolen from my storage unit, along with that old vw diff housing I did. Still have the pipes *though. *
 I tried to upload a pic of the stollen motor, but to no avail. *To clarify, it was a different motor than the previous shots. *"80 yamaha srx 440, All polishedup. It still makes me sick. |
