Nice. That looks to be a Kazuma Meerkat . Many folks don't know that those have a 5 speed Trans. If you didn't know this already, look on the RL where a shifter would typically go, you will see the shift shaft. Ebay has everything you need, and cheap!!

Thanks Awk, i just purchased the NOS suzuki peg pin/spring kit. I guess i wasnt looking hard enough. The right side panel is the one i need, and i seen before on ebay for $39.99 new, but hoping to find a used one. My plans for the weekend is to ride with my 8 year old son for the first time...

Im looking for the plastic cover that goes on the kicker side and a set of peg springs, not having any luck. We just got his bike out after a year of sitting. New carb and twist throttle set up is on its way.

It's strange how it worked out. Getting them put on today.

I found 2 21-7-10 fronts for a yfz450 Brand new for $50 for the pair on a Facebook site. Best part is the guy delivered them to my door. He said he bought replacement tires for his yfz450 but never put them on before he sold it.

I can now understand the reason for the Turfsaver tires (little traction). If you had some tires that bite, you would have a hard time keeping the front down. Especially with a stock length swing arm.

Batch19 or George Killians Irish stout are my top picks. During the warmer weather, I go for a Leinenkugel's summer shandy.

Where I ride, it would have been a waste of time to paint the a arms, and they were looking rough..now my a arms don't look like sh *t anymore and the paint will last longer, done deal........

And here it is

No Awk, When I took the a-arms off, the only area that was warn down to bare steel, was the front bottom section of the lower A-arms. So I made the "guards" covering that section only.

Even though this thread seems dead, just an update. A-arms are painted and drying over night, and reinstalling tomorrow. I will post pics following the install

Hopefully it works out like I have planned.

I welded 1/4" nuts to each A-arm to attach. Nothing special....10ga stainless.

I couldn't tell ya why there are twice the pictures I uploaded......

I had plans of painting my A-arms. I am using Dupli-color engine paint with ceramic. I have used it many times in the past, and it holds up great. The area I ride has tall grass and it beats the A-arms up pretty quick. So I'm in the process of making a stainless steel guard that will attach to...

I had a Traxxas T Maxx, I put about $1400.00 into it over the years. It's expensive if you make it. But I couldn't get close to what I put into when I sold it. Good luck!

Exhaust is now ported. I hope there's something to gain...a lot of boring grinding.

The process has begun

I've done some research and I will check out the thread. I have everything i need as far as grinding and polishing bits. I guarantee it will come short of Ken's quality work, there's no question there.

I've watched Ken's videos on porting over and over, I'm going to give it a shot. I have a strong feeling that this wait for the DMC will be well worth it.
