ridingred Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Well, I did decent last weekend out so decided to move forward and make the Honda a full blown TT quad. It started as a trail machine, and has progressed into flat track. Here's what it was early last year http://www.offtopic.forum/uploads/imported/2012/05/20120304_133255_7101-1.jpg I've added +2 Ishock ST a arms, a rear lowering link and removed the rear swingarm. Currently running spacers on the rear that total 3 in. wider. Motor has 13:1 piston that was put in this summer, with a 02 CRF cam. Front Suspension is triple rate rebuilds, they're in need of some work so i can get them to my liking. Rath sway bar is on the way and will be put on tomorrow afternoon when i get off work. Here's what it looks like now. http://www.offtopic.forum/uploads/imported/2013/05/20130416_153851_601_zps00b09104-1.jpg I will post pictures of the final setup once I get the sway bar on. I've attended all of the district AMA races so far this year, 3 were rained out, so it's been 2 weeks since I've raced. I'll be back out later this month for 2 more races, can't wait to test out the new sway bar!

ridingred Posted May 9, 2013 Author Posted May 9, 2013 Sway bar is in and ready to put on! These bad boys cost around $400, I was lucky to find an org member who sold it to me for $140. If you're not familiar with how they work, the long metal torsion bar with the hex on the ends actually flexes. It is made of the same steel that a shock spring is made of. The torsion bar goes inside the black tube and then bolds up to the frame/a arm mount and then the a arm. I've seen these torsion bars flex before and it's crazy how they'll turn almost 360 degrees. http://www.offtopic.forum/uploads/imported/2013/05/20130509_072311_616_zpsd2f1d90d-1.jpg Quote 05, 13:1 JE, 02 crf cam, full hmf, razr tt tires, rath sway bar, lowering link in the rear, triple rate rebuilds on front.

ridingred Posted May 20, 2013 Author Posted May 20, 2013 can't wait to race this weekend and try out the new sway bar. I don't think any other member on this forum is familiar with sway bars are they? Any insight on what you guys run as far as settings?
