    Michigan Blaster on going build thread

    Finally moving around and able to work on this thing after a few weeks off. I got the 03+ rear carrier on the other day and new rotor with what I think is a Banshee rear caliper setup? I can’t remember if that’s what I bought because it’s been so long since I started the project but I’m pretty...

    I got the rear grab bar painted the same color as the swingarm and installed and I got the air box and intake cleaned and installed with the new K&N filter. Also got a little crazy with stickers but it is all stuff that is on the quad or related to that. I might take them off I’m not sure, I...

    Nice! I should have just pulled the trigger and bought the Vito kit but I also have a CR125 that’s close to finished as soon as I get the cylinder redone as well as a few other projects so yeah. I decided to go with the chassis upgrades on my blaster because I was trying to throw this thing...

    Nice! Yeah mine needed a lot of work when I bought it that’s why I decided to do a full tear down. I missed my Banshee and YFZ 450, but I couldn’t afford to get back on one of those lol not right now anyway, so that’s another reason I went this route when I started looking at another quad. I’m...

    Nice I wasn’t sure about the pipe because I’ve never heard of it before, it’s the one that came on it when I bought it, but it’s a nice looking pipe. I’ll have to check that thread out and get everything ready to go for when I can ride and do the chops. Thanks for the info! I’ll post what I come...

    Thanks! I haven’t been able to jet or do plug chops yet. There are no brakes on it and the engine has hardly any runtime on it. I have heat cycled the rings and ridden it around my house a couple times. I just had surgery last Wednesday so it’ll be about 3-4 more weeks before I can ride and do...

    Thanks! It’s really come a long way from what it was, although it cost quite a bit lol I’d say I have about $1800 into it including what I paid for it originally so it’s a toss up as to whether it was worth it but I think it was since everything is new or like new. I race cut the fenders and put...

    Well I’m not sure if I could move this to a build thread or if I would have to make a new thread altogether but here’s some updates if anyone happens to read this lol Got the engine started and it runs good! I’m super happy with it. I installed a wiseco piston and rings instead of the cheap one...

    New from Michigan. I’m in the middle of completing my blaster and figured I should sign up for some useful info on certain things I’m doing to my blaster. I am hoping to have it completed within the month just in time for riding season. So far I have Alba +3 A-Arm in front, +4 rear swing arm off...
