Pushed Big Red outta the garage today for the first time in 7 months to give her a bath & get some pics with the the 400X! Big Red is still in mobile at the moment until I rebuild the front forks, which will be happening very soon.

Do you happen to notice a big difference
with the headpipe heat shield missing?
I've got one just like it I should try to do something with.

It takes around a millionth of a second to get a 3 week burn on mine.

Nice looking BR!! (and 400x) What offset is your front wheel, did you use a spacer and how well is it centered?

Front wheel offset is 2+5 with a 1" spacer on the brake side, centered perfectly!
