    Well, he's not baiting me because i can dish it out just the same. I'm just tired of the thread bombing and name calling. If he wanted to jump in and make fun of kawie with a smily face it's all good. I don't think me, or any other boardmember deserves to be called idiot because we are searching for info that we don't know. I'm just sick of it

    Hey Hoosier... I'd be more than Happy to kick 's ass next time I see him. FREE OF CHARGE!!!

    I've managed to break both the 85 and gusseted 86 frame.. Mostly the seat latch area.. That could be my bigass and the rough terrian I ride in tho.

    Keep an eye on the swinger.. I've broke some of those too!

    Well, I hope i can get by with no damage. I will just be riding mostly open trails and occasional wooded trails. I don't think I'll ever have the need to jump it or anything. So crossing fingers.

    I beat the ever livin snot out of my 350X everytime I swing a leg over it

    I broke a swinger, but can't break the frame??

    I also can't kill the motor, but I do the correct maintenance....

    It's very odd to have a VIN come up as 86 with no wrap because late 85 seems to be when they discovered the problem.
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    OK, sorry that the pics aren't perfect because my camera doesn't like taking clear close ups but here is a pic of the inside of the fram on the left side where the mount is and the front with the vin.
