Still waiting for my CRANK though!!!!! :soapbox:

I put a few motos on these on the weekend since my 450 is still not together, the 400 handles like a dreaaaam with that suspension on there

I'll try and find pics of the fat suit lol

[sandt38]

lol^

 

When I went we originally were gonna stay on the US side, its a dump compared to the Canadian side.

 

Sadly it hasn't always been that way. I lived in Niagara Falls in the 70s, right next to Love Canal (thanks for waiting so long Jimmy Carter). But I read something a few years ago that the Falls had one of the highest unemployment rates in the US, at over 50% IIRC.

 

But the view from the Canadian side is so much nicer.

[sandt38]

haha yah Buffalo is kinda a shithole,

 

Watch it... that is my hometown... But again, not what it was back when I lived there.

[chronicsmoke]

Hahaha my GF is from StoneyCreek (Hamilton) and says that my hometown reminds her of Buffalo so I guess I live in a shit-hole too :rotflmao:

Just race the bike that is in the background there!...lol

[chronicsmoke]

Haha the little Recon 250.. that thing is bullet proof I swear. Waiting on a driveshaft dust cover and it will be good to go.. It looks beast with 18" tires and beadlocks lol

[Baileyguns]

I saw that too, lol.. I have a set of 18's on the 250ex here, thought about tossing the extra set of beadlocks on it for fun... Same as a recon with sport plastic.

[450R]

When crossing the border and they ask "have anything to declare?"... don't say "I declare war to the united states"... It won't go over to well.

[Baileyguns]

Put a gopro on your dash when you do it... I wanna see it! lol

Instant cavity search :icon_eek:

 

Looks like I'll be getting an O2 bung welded in and I'll be tuning it with my buddy that's running a YFZ on methanol, which is fine by me. He knows his shit lol

[CJM]

Perfect jetting then lol.

[bvet4dog]

Instant cavity search :icon_eek:

Who knows, he just might enjoy it o.0

I'd have to pick the hottest chick with the smallest fingers.... but knowing my luck it probably be a big fat dude with stubby finger like pickles...:gr_cry:

Luck or destiny? lmao

[chronicsmoke]

Haha must be destiny! :icon_lol:

 

Should be getting my crank/piston back today and hopefully bring it right to my buddy who's going to build it.

.

Rad/oil cooler are back in and the electrical is all mounted. New front bearings, rotors & brake pads installed.

.

Airbox is on, going to change the jets in the CRF Carb tonight I think and get that ready

.

Here's a few picture updates;

Tusk rotors and I'm trying pads from "Boss Bearing" that were pretty cheap.

http://www.offtopic.forum/uploads/imported/2013/06/img2775m-1.jpg

[CJM]

Looking good.

 

Hopefully the pads hold up. I bought some el cheapo 10 dollar ones on ebay for the 400 for the back and they wore out in a season vs the ebc severe dutys I replaced like 2 years back if not 3.

[Baileyguns]

EBC severe duty for me...

[chronicsmoke]

Yah If I get an entire season on them I'll be happy. They were 12 bucks a set.. I believe they are 'Emgo' branded

 

We shall see how they hold up.. The old ones were down to bare metal lol

[chronicsmoke]

So turns out the Rossier I picked up is a Shorty style exhaust (12" Can)

 

That should be good for power but might be a tad loud, lol.

 

Here's the last pic I'm going to post until it's done.

Should have my engine back by early next week and I'll be ready to hit the dirt.:gr_burnout:

[sandt38]

Looks sweet, bud.

[bvet4dog]

Nice! looks like it's coming along and i dig your graphics

[alanbmx]

Looks nice! What cam are you running? I did not see it mentioned in the build

[chronicsmoke]

Thanks guys! Still need a few more hours in the shop but it's coming along. Hope to have it a complete roller after tonight.

 

Alan it's an early HRC cam!

[bvet4dog]
