dratv rocks, but dont forget to check ebay before you order, i have ordered a few things from there and saved money on each item. also a little tip is to get creative on the search, look for atc70, atc 70, pitbike, pit bike, even lifan and piranha stuff, if you need some accesories. i found a company that had my intake manifold ( more agressive curve, and 24mm ) for 9.99 and free shipping, and a intake rotator base for 10.95 (21.95 on dratv).

just a little FYI to help everyone! :laughing:

As you can see, I have chosen to go with a Blue & silver theme...kind of a Yamaha color theme and it will also match the new rail :beerpint:

Thanks guys. Kens Colors hooked the paint up. It looks sweet.

Yea Justin, I am going to have to do some modding to mine as well, but it looks like it should be fairly simple. It just needs to be extended or lengthened a lil bit wider to clear the shifter. :beerpint:

same here...i am thinking i will just "re-time" the peg bar to the mount plate (change the posistion of the peg bar inside the mounting plate), i will probably just cut the factory welds and rotate the peg bar downward a bit then re-weld it. so instead of the bar coming off the plate and coming up slightly, i think iwill make it come off and stay level. i will let you know how it works out and if its good we can hook yours up too :beerpint:

yeah thats should work, should get the knees down a touch too. clears the shifter now.

before.....peg bar rises from the motor plate.

after....peg bar is just about level with plate, basically you can pick the spot it needs to be at depending on the motor setup, mine needed to be at this level, but yours may not need to drop as much.
