I have a ported/polished/sleaved cylinder that is off of a 83kx250(same cylinder design, but more radical porting) and the head was shaved. I have $500 into it and sold my tecate, so I have not need for it. want to buy it?

[Meat-BoX]

Im all set, but thanks. I need to sell it because of severe back injuries. My days of rippin it up are over. Gettin a 4x4 ATV

Its going in on the 18th. I got before pics and will have after pics. Im getting the Paint ,Polishing and Chroming done at SUMAX. I found them on the net, and they are close to home. I didnt realize the did the painting and stuff for Orange County Choppers. Check their site out, sweet work. The dude was pretty excited to trick up a Three wheeler.

Hey, atleast your not gonna give up riding. Ever think of making a nice tame riding sportbike with real soft suspension? With all the work your putting into the t3 (make it like a 2 stroke cadillac) I would stick with that unless your back truly cant handle it. Also, cool site for the shop.

My speed days are over. I need to get to wher im going, and pull those big Bucks out of the woods. Anyway Im planning a trip accross Newfoundland and back. Around 1200 miles. Cant do it on a tecate.

wow they're prices are pretty steep. Granted they probably do great work and the prices are for bikes but would it really cost like $400 for a trike frame to get powdercoated?

[atcmatt]

why get a 4x4 QUAD!!!!! get a big red, since trailprotrailpro backs bad go for the 250 its got rear suspension. they have more than enough power to pull bucks out of the woods, as for your trip the big red can handle that too!!!!!! i mean cummon, a quad (well atleast u aint giving riding up altogether)

Im gonna want to put up some pics. Can any1 help me out? Thanks The cost of the powder coating and polishing and chroming will be around 600 bucks. Im thinking translucent purple with a little lime green metal flake. I also got my eye on a Chrome DG pipe. I just need an answer for the gas tank. They dont make the any more. Wish me luck im goin in.

Dam whats up with this thread ? ? ?

Bryan any info with this ????

The Cal Fab is on and its a week or two from being done. Have some issues but we shall prevail.

Oh my, that Cal-Fab looks damn good all polished up on the rear of my Tecate.
By the way the Frame is twisted a bit and been pounded out. Noticed some shotty welds also and dont have any Bottle mount setup as they are broke off the frame. 300EX rear shock here I come. Raptor shock with that bottle is a pain. So in other words this build isnt really done untill I get a real nice frame. And thats not happening anytime soon. Shes a real beast and with the right suspension and that extra 2" I will be really happy.
I will get pics in the next week. Wrong brake line sent so that goes back, carb choke wont work and I hear the Mikuni VM 36 is the hot setup, need a chain and the damn water Pump top coolant part bolts stripped out the top end. Stressing that. Lots of little problems but its real close.
