I will update with some pics once the rest of the stuff comes in!

its like a mini xmas! lol

some one might just have to take my paypal account away from me for a while, rofl. Just bought a new 39T rear sprocket

 

[Brute71]

rear shock came in today (that came ridiculously fast!), i think that will warrant a pic

 

[Brute71]

Here's some pics of the new shock!

Got the itch to ride, so reassembly has begun for testing. This build isnt over yet tho, consider this a break

Here are the air scoops that i made a while back but never posted pics of:

[brandoz28]

looks good bro. you got a sweet deal on that rear shock. what kind of paint did you use for your frame?

 

[Brute71]

the frame is powder coated

Finally got this thing back together! I just need to clean the air filter and get some gas then im running!

Next on my list are a set of front shocks and a new set of front wheels/tires.

Maxxis Razrs on ITP aluminum rims:
Maxxis Front M931 Razr MX 19x6-10 Tire - DennisKirk.com
ITP Polished T-9 Pro Series Heavy-Duty Wheel - DennisKirk.com

Might go for a set of works or maybe even elka's.

took her for a spin today, she ran pretty good. I was getting some piston slap tho, looks like i get to rebuild her again.

i'm sold on works (haven't even gotten the shocks on yet) BUT their customer service has been A+++++ for me

 

[Brute71]

Got my number plates in yesterday, got the rear one mounted today. Just gotta wait for my friend to bring my new front bumper by so i can throw on the rear one.

And yes, the rear number plate is offset. I did that to clear the exhaust.

bro,clean that thing up lol

sorry, took it for a spin and accidentally found some wet stuff, haha

 

[Brute71]

have this thing part ways apart again and the top end is apart. I'm still deciding whether to just go for the full rebuild or just give it a quick hone (leaning towards the new top end since im going to be doing some MX). I will also give ken's tutorial a go while its apart My phone is having issues, so no pics until my new one comes in (thurs or friday).

just got me a throttle cable off ebay so i can run the 32mm mikuni i have sitting here When it gets here i will pick up some aluminum stock to make a reed spacer then i will modify the boot going to the air box to fit.

 

[brandoz28]

have you tried the carb on the bike yet? my 36mm just barely cleared my clutch arm. all i did was dremel out the engine side boot and use my butane powered soldering iron/heat gun to heat up the airbox side to stretch enough to fit
