Does anybody know of any good chassis / suspension fabrication shops around eastern Missouri?  I'm thinking of having some custom chassis work done and would like to avoid shipping if possible.  Thanks in advance.

Wanted / WTB: CT Silencer
« on: November 27, 2013, 03:21:19 PM »
Does anybody have a CT silencer they'd like to sell cheap?  I bought a CT midrange pipe and none of my other silencers will fit properly.  Let me know, thanks.

Projects / '86 TRX250R Rebuild
« on: November 22, 2013, 09:32:10 PM »
I picked this quad up about 2 years ago.  It was very clean and ran pretty good.  There were a few small issues.  The drain plug threads were cracked and required silicone to be cleaned out and re-applied every oil change.  The case saver mounts were damaged, but functional.  Compression was OK but not great and there were also a few cracks in the frame.  The previous owner cracked the original swingarm and bent the shock.  His son had a 2006 TRX450R he was upgrading the suspension on, so he decided to try the 450R swingarm conversion with the stock take off parts.  I actually think handled rather well compared to my limited experience.  The only problem was, in order to get the sprockets to line up, he had to shift the engine over to the right 3/4".  This created a bunch of fitment issues with the carb and exhaust.  He also had to modify the linkage mount, rear motor mount, lower motor mounts and headstay (which eventually broke in half).  I think this was the cause of the majority of the frame cracks.  I rode it for about a year like this before I decided to do a complete rebuild.

Suspension and Chassis / What kind of Hiper wheels are these?
« on: October 29, 2013, 08:40:03 PM »
I got these wheels a few months ago and the seller said they were Tech 2s, but I can't seem to find any info on "Tech 2s".  I started to think maybe he meant Tech 3s since they have the aluminum centers, but all the Tech 3s I see are smooth while these have bracing.  Has anyone seen or run any like these before?

Body and Controls / Can anyone ID this steering stem?
« on: October 29, 2013, 08:33:06 PM »
I got this stem a few months ago and the seller couldn't tell me what make it is.  It had a black/gold crinkle finish but I had it re-powder coated black.  I'm just kinda curious.

Ignition / Spark plugs: Resistor Or Non-Resistor
« on: September 05, 2013, 11:42:26 AM »
I know this has probably been covered at length on the other site, but I haven't seen anything on here yet.  Everyone seems to have their own opinion on this and I would just like to hear some first hand accounts.  Has anyone had any issues with running a non-resistor plug?  Any performance improvement over a resistor plug?

Wanted / Looking for stock 88-89 upper a-arms
« on: July 15, 2013, 03:44:02 PM »
Anyone got a set of stock 88-89 upper arms they're looking to part with?  Bushing condition and a-arm color doesn't matter.  Just looking for good balljoints.  Send me a PM if you have any.  Thanks.

Are there color codes for PC like in automotive paint?  I want to PC my frame the original honda red, but I don't have anything to match it to.
