I thought I would share my project with y'all. I have been rounding up a lot of parts for this in the past year. I still have to buy a 250R-based quad, but that's the easy part. :D Don't worry, this will not be some redneck hackjob. I am very detail-oriented, and I will not own anything that could be labeled as cobbled-together. There are two pics at the bottom that show what it will look very similar to when I'm done. Enough of that, here's the list (very long):
