Brute's rebuild(s)

[Brute71]

I just officially kicked it off tonight. I have so far ordered a black gripper seat cover and a tether kill switch off ebay. Also on the way is some aluminum so i can tweak the nerf bars i have to work with my pipe. The quad is torn down to the frame.

The intention of the build is to get it MX ready. Wish me luck! Pics will be up tomorrow of its current state.

This may turn into 2 builds if/when i get the parts bikes from a local shop sometime this spring (snow JUST started to melt).

awesome man, there is a serious sickness on this forum lol

its called blasteritis - the act of dumping large sums of money into your yamaha blaster in an effort to upgrade every last bit of it, insanity will ensue.

I also got the aluminum i ordered in so i can fix up my nerf bars.

 

[Brute71]

Nerf bars are back in action! Also shaved the head today she's coming along nicely!

now to find a rear shock... any one got a 400ex shock or something along those lines? haha

 

[brandoz28]

another option is the 250R shock, thats what i'm running and it seems pretty good so far

 

[Brute71]

as of now i am looking at 3 possible shock options (gonna be running an interesting setup ) that should do the trick for me.
