Decided to pull the plug on riding season and tear down the bike for its long overdue revamp. I purchased the bike in early March and had been in storage for some years prior to me buying it. There have been LOTS of very hard hours logged on this thing since march and honestly I dont know how its still in one piece and running LOL! Compression is very low, motor rattles like a bucket of bolts, frame is rough, and suspension wore out along with everything else. As of right now the plan is to fix the frame issues: powder, replace all bushings/bearings/seals, freshen up the engine, rebuild rear shock, new/used front shocks, wheels/tires, update a few things, and anything else that needs to be replaced. Here is what it looks like before tear down.
Probably the most beaten Arens frame ever!
