    got the franks on!!!

    well its been a while since i have done anything with/to any of my projects i got going on. been working like a madman doing 12-16hour shifts, 6 days a week, so that ate up pretty much most of my time. well with the way the economy is, i recently got laid off and now i have alot of extra time on my hands. so i decided to do some work on my 85t3. had a franks swinger sitting in my collection of parts for over a year now that i have been meaning to get on the bike, so i finally did. loving it!!!! have the cluctch cable, moose thumb throttle, k&n filter, and a few more odds and ends on their way to try and wrap this thing up finally, only been going on like 4 years or so since i started building this thing. not bad for starting with just a frame i think....


    1985 KXT 250 Tecate - kx cylinder, kx ignition, bassani headpipe, answer silencer, v-force reeds, 38mm airstyker carb, +2 franks swinger, raptor rear shock.

    1996 YSF240 Blaster - maxxed out!!!

    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "HOLY SH-T, what a ride!"

    I'm pretty sure those are 18X11X10 Fast trekkers. They definitely aren't Turf Tamers.
