What did you do to your bike today?

I swapped the rear suspension off a Chinese ATV's front suspension, to the RT100's rear suspension just for the hell of it.

I swapped the bushings, pushed them into the rubber (had to heat them), and grinded down the bottom bushings to get this:

And it absolutely sucks. :lol: There aint any race sag on those. They are way too stiff. But I do like them being taller. I'm looking forward for it to kick my ass on the first test ride.:smirk:

Will the rt springs fit the quad shock?
 
Gps mount and wired.

Cleaned and ready for a 250 mile dual sport ride. :rocker:

Rack,....vids or I call :BS: you know you're starting to act like James with those vids, at least he is posting some now :smirk:

anyways, I got my new crank bearings and gaskit kit and I split my bottom end cases and took my crank to the shop to get rebuilt.

I found that not only did the bearing blow out on the clutch side to the outside of the case but it blew out to the inside of the case too and a piece of the bearing cage dug out a pretty good line around the inside of the crank journal.

It's all BS Jax. I did not ride :devil:

But I do know that chopnwood never got out of first gear on the track :lol:
 
I took my front and rear wheels off, and the tires. Pulled the fofks off and getting ready to reseal them. I was thiking of painting the bike that new camero green and black. Any ideas????
 
I went and chased the source of the shavings in my oil (non magnetic) the clutch basket is starting to notch out, but its not too bad right now. Put it back together, finish the season and do a clutch in the winter.
