    Awesome Score!!!!!!!
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    that looks like a stock shock. probably had the spring changed

    that skid wouldn't be that hard to make. its the stock one thats a pain. i could make the stock one like that but theres no where to mount it on the stock swinger.

    how many calfab swingers are out there?
    Billet Triz 250 parts, Case Savers, Engine Mounts, Boost Bottles, Oil Caps, and Shifters, pm me for info

    KX cylinders were also black and share the same cylinder as the KXT in '86...

    I dont' think you can do anything with the tecate tank brapp. I think DC plastics was making the 86/7 tank covers with the shrouds built right into them. you can also get the #plate too. you can kill two birds with one stone there...

    couldn't sleep last nite eh... You my freind have the sickness!

    you can sand out the white oxidation but not the brownon the tank . I made mine shiny again but still brown. It will look much better with a little sand and polish though.

    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!"

    You can call Tony at Ceet and he will send you one for 50$ plus shipping. It makes the tank much more appealing.
