got1banshee Posted January 21, 2004 Report Posted January 21, 2004 I am starting to go crazy, I think I have ran out of shit to do to my quad untill I get my engine back from Jim (passion). Every time I walk into my garage I see it sitting there looking good but all I can do is just sit on it out it in my chair listening to the radio looking at it hahaha. I think I am going insane...

fixitrod Posted January 21, 2004 Report Posted January 21, 2004 Are you asking for things you can do to it? Does he have the whole motor or just the topend? Quote
Wallrat Posted January 21, 2004 Report Posted January 21, 2004 Isn't there anything left that you could polish up? That's a great way to kill some time. Quote
got1banshee Posted January 21, 2004 Author Report Posted January 21, 2004 Are you asking for things you can do to it? Does he have the whole motor or just the topend? Yeah he has the entire engine minuse carbs but I am getting a set of PJ-34s Quote
fixitrod Posted January 21, 2004 Report Posted January 21, 2004 How about painting the hubs, putting an inline fuel filter in, installing a tether kill switch (better do that after... 1 thing at a time), lube everything up, bleed the brakes, remove parking brake, how about a bumper or grab bar, new handle bar pad, welding on another set of foot pegs to make them wider, check your brake pads, lube all your cables, make sure your grips are glued on good, order any sprockets you may be changing for the new motor, ... I'm sure I can think of something else Quote
rebelbanshee2 Posted January 21, 2004 Report Posted January 21, 2004 dont forget sitting on it making engine noises! Im in the same baot as you man, just waiting for my engine, doing what ever i can to my quad...but jim said perhaps my stuff wil ship by the end of the week, just waiting for the crank to get in!

ruff_rida69 Posted January 22, 2004 Report Posted January 22, 2004 I've got the same problem right now, I've took the key off the handle bars and put it in the right race cut part on my fender, and cut the middle bar outta my handle bars to make it look like 03' bars, I have did everything and now I just go out there and sit and look at it and freeze my ass off, and wait on my motor to get back from one one my buddy's, I just can't wait I have'nt rode the shee but one in 3 or 4 months, I think I'm startin' to get depressed!
