So i had a shop vac hose for a snorkle not that long ago becuz i didnt have the time to make a good one but this week i made one and i love the way it works. also i did a body lift on my bike, the lift was an old 250sx frame i had sitting in the back that was rusted thru on the lower half and i cut the top half and made the lift and its helped ALOT.

well i tryed to see if it would swim the other day on sunday when the fire was out there, i went to lakes in the back and drove the bike up to the handlebars lol i didnt notice one of my carb breathers had came off so it got full of gas lol.

ok so i opened up the motor today and found that the small stud in the motor where it shifts wasnt there which is kinda weird becuz when i opened it last time i didnt touch anything but the clutch, so after taking it from my parts engine and putting it back together it shifts VERY good im happy with it, Now all i need to do is tighten my swing arm and install the new front axle bearings, and put some new breather lines running up the snorkle and im good.

Eddie-- Would you post a closer side pic of your front rack setup? Do I see a reinforcement going back to your fork tubes?

I use the pipe clamps to adjust the rack and the other day i had to weld a piece of some steel angle iron to hold the rack from sliding up and down, the welders are holding very good but the wire i got on my mig splashes ALOT so it looks like popcorn lol but so far ive pulled out a 2011 honda rincon 700 with it and i thought it was gonna break but it didnt, now i know why skiffy called it a QRD lol. also i had to use 3/8th all thread for the pipe clamps and some another form of bracket that fit the all thread in the front, and just welded it together so it didnt slip out again.
