Big thanks to Quality Powdercoat (qpcoat.com) for the subframe powder coating and swing arm coating, Brett (sand2kinc.com) for helping me out with some tips when putting together... And numerous members from other forums for helping me get the parts to build this.

It weighed in at 312lbs wet with this 25lb axle, a 12lb aluminum JJ&A axle is enroute.

Very nice project Rappy. An expensive one I bet. Are you going to race it?

Thank you!

Yes, it's a total money pit lol, could be spending money on worse things I suppose.

Yep, it's strictly a racing quad now with the rigid front end, no dunes or trails for me!

looks like she will displace a bit of sand at the crack of the throttle :yes:

Maybe a little:wink:... We will see. First debut is on the 18th, I'll post the helmet can footage.

Just to clean it up a little bit, it's not practical at all lol. That's part of building a drag bike, trying to hide wires, and just make it look very simple.

Couldn't get the dumb thing to run half right today. Best was a 5.52, which should be more like a 4.7x.

There is no fuel above 6500rpm. Will have to figure that problem out tomorrow. Here's a quick video-

Last weekend and yesterday, and tomorrow actually. Last weekend, took first place in the mod class, there were probably 10-15 bikes... Unfortunately no timers. Yesterday was T&T at West Michigan Sand Drags. Ran a 5.11 off the trailer with it having little traction and messed up gearing, ran a 5.0 at 57mph, and it was all down hill from there. It just spun like crazy!

Last week-

      I recently read an article about restoring or at least improving the looks of faded and discolored plastic body parts. In the article it suggested using a 50/50 mixture of boiled linseed oil and paint thinner. You mix it up and apply it with a brush or rag to rub it in and remove the oxidation. I curious to find out if anyone has had experience with doing this and what was their short/long term results of doing so. I would hate to try it and find out that a few weeks/months down the road my plastic body parts self destruct.

      I am new to this site. I have a 1987 Suzuki LT230S Quadsport I think. Is there a difference between quadsport and quadrunner?

      Have you ever been on the trail and your tire valve goes bad. No way to break down the wheel and replace it. A lot of you probably know about this already i had heard of it but never used one. Just punch out the old one insert and tighten down the nut
       

       

       

       
      So far it has worked very well.

      Hello all! I’m new to the 4 wheeler world, but not new to the mechanic world. I was a diesel mechanic for many years and last year got into jet skis. I just bought a 1987 Yamaha moto 4 350 and now learning the ins and outs of 2 stroke engines. Looking forward to learning all the things.
