    Cool From Bushes to the Mud

    What's up to the people with love for the 3 wheeled atv! I am currently in the process of wrapping up my new Yamaha YTM 225 DRS and man is it sweet looking. I found this thing in the bushes with blackberries rgowing through it and was a bit optimistic about whether or not it was going to turn over. To my surprise the engine spun over and had plenty of compression, but this still did not stop me from boring it out 30 over and replacing the old piston with a new racing piston. I had the frame professionally painted and everything rechromed to where it looks like it just came from the dealership. I just recieved my new coil wire and am hoping that the bike will crank now that the last piece of the puzzle is in place. I'll post up some pics of the bike when its completely done. If any of you know where I can get some good fenders for this bike please let me know.
    Peace,
