welp i got all my new parts, everything i needed actually with the exception of fenders, but there all still in one piece so it can wait
i got my new tripple clamp and sanded it all nice it looks polished now
soon maybe i will do my side cases too but who knows
i started off with 320 grit sand paper, then 400,600,800, and then 2000 grit sandpaper
it was shining before i even polished it!!! that 2000 grit sandpaper is something to be respected !!
sometime this week i will order my new snow tires Kenda Gecko's pretty sick sand ( snow ) tires
i dont really NEED more parts i can do without them what im saying is that the part works perfectly but isnt in the best shape, example: front and rear fenders,gas tank,rims,headlight plastic and 1 headlight,
gas tank is dented and the cosmetics are in poor condition rims still have shine, but are in "well used" condition
i got my title (first owner) and registration and im shooting for insurance as soon as i get around to it, i havent been riding at all recently, hence the reason you never see me post much of anything
but i think the 3 wheeler is going to sit there for quite some time before i feel like dumping more money into it :( once june comes i will be selling it i am 95% done with atv'ing for good theres too many risks where i live but when june comes and i keep off of it the 370x will look brand new everything is either new, or old and polished like new
there is only 1 little problem with it, when its really really really cold out, and you start the ( freezing cold) engine it will burn oil, but once it warms up it stops smoking, it doesnt burn any oil at first start up in the summer
i definatly dont want to yank the engine after i just put it in a new frame so im just going to leave it be, if anything i'd say its bad valve oil seals
before i sell it i will also have it dyno'd :twisted: :twisted: hehehe!!!
some guy just opened a new shop and he is getting a $40,000 dyno i kind of know the guy so it wont cost me anything either, im going to try out a variety of oil filters,oils, air filters, and carburateurs to get the best use out of the 370 kit before it goes. i already have 3 different sized carbs for the 370x
