Capone Posted May 6, 2006 Author Report Posted May 6, 2006 Update: Since I'm getting silver full bores, and I went +4 instead of the +6 chrome swinger, I don't know what color to powder coat the swing arm? I guess I'm going to go with the silver of the full bores... but then i'll have to go silver a arms also to make it look right. What do ya guys think? Quote

Capone Posted May 6, 2006 Author Report Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) Frame is gloss black, only thing I'm thinking of is when it chips, it would be harder to see in the silver... Also going with maier stock plastic, not fullbores. Edited May 6, 2006 by Passion99 Quote
bansheeseat$$ Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Asuming you are runing in sand it shouldn't get chipped,Just don't get stuck behind someone throwen roost. Quote

DIRTMAN350 Posted May 22, 2006 Report Posted May 22, 2006 Looks damn good. Post some pics when it all done. Quote
Capone Posted June 2, 2006 Author Report Posted June 2, 2006 Update: Not much has changed since last update, I got my side case polished, waiting on Vforces to show up, I got my shearers, but forgot to order billet pipe hangers. So they're not on yet. Thanks to Jim @ Passion for the super fast shipping of all my parts. My a-arms arrived so I threw them on real quick. Quote

Matt05 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 How did you get it so cheap? At the end of the summer I am going to buy a banshee and take off and sell what I want to upgrade as my winter project, and if I could find a '99 for $1,000 well... well I'd have to get a new pair of pants. Quote

MAN!!! Whatever it is that attracts us all to a good looking re-build...well, I got a bad case of it today...lol Damn nice job mister...if anyone's paying close attention to the math here..it's beginning to look like he's gonna end up with one HELLUVA ride for damn near exactly what it costs for a new stocker (minus the sweat equity, but if you add in "grin factor" this totals out to 'zero" anyways). Congratulations and please take more pics...We really could use a "Project" forum on here one day! ~corks Quote
Capone Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Posted June 4, 2006 Damn cork, its the compliments that make something like this all worth it. Thanks for the input guys, I could of never done it without the HQ! Quote
Capone Posted June 6, 2006 Author Report Posted June 6, 2006 (edited) Update pic from tonight: Pipes, Front Brake Lines, Clutch Case, VForce3's, Carbs, all installed. Waiting on Impeller bearing + seal, new filters to clear the pipes, and fluids, then it gets started up. Pay no attn to all the shit laying around the garage. Edited June 6, 2006 by Passion99 Quote
