    I finally got to ride my quadsport yesterday after having it sit for 2 months (Had to get some new axel bearings in it and couldnt get motivated). I forgot how easily it powerslides and just how much i missed it. Gotta love these machines.

    heres how it looks with the new throttle cable. I got rid of the "honda" name on top of the throttle too to make it look more OEM like

    just got back from riding, ordered some parts today and got some new parts aswell.. Ordered a twist throttle, swinger bearings, and a new chain, got new bars and grips, and a clutch perch and lever, but the levers off a crf and the perch is for a cr so it doesnt fit. i got some pics from the other day at the mud pit hopefully they work,,

    Phew I went riding with my buddy today and damn! We went to his track and he forgot to mention he made the one jump a double, so here I am in like 4th gear hit the jump and look down and the ground just drops , lol luckily I landed about 10 feet past the jump. Phew scary stuff though. I'll get some pics hopefully tomorrow of us hitting some mud holes. We went through a few hairy ones today that I thought I'd never makie it through with the trail pros. Well enough rambling, Ride On!

    yeah. I also race cut my front fenders and plan on getting new rears soon (after rims, tires etc) and I made a exhaust for it for now untill I get my DG or Cobra, its just a larger 50 header, cut, put it inside the stock header and put an aftermarket 50 silencer on it, and it sounds nice, havent noticed any performance though, but then again it is a hackjob sort of thing, so I can wait fo rmy actual exhaust to try and get some performance out of her. Ill get some new pics some other time, and I need new tires now.. i have a nice 5" gash in my left rear sidewall, yeah that was a fun ride to the truck.
