I'm working on getting this mounted up. I had to shorten it and finally found a clamp that wraps around the tube so this should look really good when its done!
Thanks Higgy

Post by: pinned250r on August 07, 2014, 10:38:24 AM: So maybe we can get this one to tuna full minute this time eh higgy? :p gol I love this bike a lot. It's unfortunate Doug never made an extended swingarm for these bikes. I mean I know they're an mx bike, but woulda been cool.

Post by: Higgy87trx425 on August 08, 2014, 03:33:31 AM: @ Tbone07 its a 431, with a dune/drag port job, 14-1 dome I think, 4mil stroke, yukon gears, slingshot lockout, v-force reeds, 44 lectron with an airbox eliminator kit and a K&N filter. Then I'm running the Shearer Inframe pipe. I haven't dyno'd it, but Pete at Hybrid Eng built it so it should be pretty healthy.
Thanks Higgy

Post by: Higgy87trx425 on August 08, 2014, 03:36:07 AM: @ pinned250r yeah Colin I'm hoping to get s few more minutes out of it this time around! I talked to Doug about a swingarm and he said I didn't need a longer one? That it would perform fine without it? So I had a +6 arm made for it, Lol! You gotta go longer with a big motor. And I think we all know why!
Thanks Higgy

Post by: Higgy87trx425 on August 08, 2014, 03:39:25 AM: Got the motor in today and I'm just about ready to put my silencer on! Still gotta fix a radiator hose and put the new calipers on, but its close.
