Newbie ATC love / 350x build

[Boodro]

Hello everybody ... Long story short traded a 1977 honda odyssey fl250 for a 1985 Honda 250sx sporty version of a big red as you all know, but I needed more at that point I was hooked on ATCs I sold it to fund a 1986 350x somebody found sitting in a scrap pile... For 6 months I've been resurrecting this beast of legendary Honda engineering. I've got lots of photos to share starting with how it looked when I first got it to how it sits now about 95% done!:pics:205972205973205974205975205976

Bear with me till I figure the workings on this site... Photo up loading etc... Taking forever to go in my photos just to pick one photo.. Is there anyway to pick multiple photos then upload all of them at one time? Till then, anyway on the last two photos it was after complete tear-down had some welds touched up in the back end as well as fixing threads and drilling snaped / rusted bolts. Had a local powder Coater bead blast all my parts frame (back to honda red) swinger/ rear hubs/ chain gard/ oil cooler gard was done in gold.

Thanks ... Just posted some more the last one showes a 1985 350x to the right and my 86 350x to the left... Don't really see that too often but sadly the 1985 is owned by somebody else he just couldn't do the bearings in the swingarm and needed help so I traded my labor for the 350X gas tank you see on my machine :w00t:
