I wondering what colors to powdercoat my 350x, the swinger, pegs, kicker, brake pedal and related parts I want to do silvervien, I was thinking slivervien for the frame too. the motor is black(I gotta clean it up alot), fenders white, front hub black, the pegs I'm gonna use are stainless steel, alxe is chrome(new durablue). Should I do the frame- red, swinger -silvervein, kicker- silvervien, pegs-silvervein, brake parts-red, bottom tipple-black, oil cooler gaurd-red, maybe the front hub-silvervein, red,or leave it black, shifter-polished, also I was gonna get douglas rims(including the front) and anodize them black. I wanna see how some of you guys did your bikes, so I could get some ideas and get an idea how its gonna look, I defenlty want to do the swinger silvervein at the least.

my friend is sending it out, I'm not sure who he usese, he has the frame, motor and swinger now. the frame is first gonna be sandblasted and reinforced/welds cleaned up and filled in, then I have a buch of stuff to pc when I figure out the color I want them. Let me know if you need any parts for the 250r. The motor makes a strange noise, so I gotta find out what is wrong. Yes, it needs alot of work , When I am up to it, I still have to install the 310pv in my atc250r and the lsr swinger, I also just got my 86 200x motor back, its been ported/polished, high comp. piston, and with it will be a 27mm carb. On the backburner is also figuring how to put 03 crf450r forks on my atc250r(if possible). also the shock on the 350x has to be rebuilt.

for the forks on the 250r your either gunna have to bore out the tripples or have someone custom make them for you wich should be like 100 each tops unless they charge extra for them designing them on a CAD program wich i dont think they will, i found a 432X motor, 13:1 comp., its preety badass, i think im gunna buy it instead of the project 250r, your R is gunna be pretty crazy once you powervalve it,my friend has a 330 powervalved quad, it pretty much kills everything but his dads banshee(20,000+ into the shee) .... you goin to the Swap Meet?We got 2 spots there for it, if you wanna sell anything you can bring it to our spots, were gunna camp there all weekend but we need more stuff to sell,

Have you talked to 86250RZ at all, im wonderin if hes still around or if his computer broke or somethin, because i was s'posed to buy his T-3 but he jus vanished for the past couple weeks.... :(

Good Luck on the X, and your 200x sounds like its gunna move pretty good, if you need any stock 350x or 250sx(even tho i dont think you have one??) parts i have some(a real lot of 250sx parts)

Here is my 350x with the Blue color. I thought it looked pretty cool, but I guess the frame needed to be a different color to really look nice.

Well on the sand trip they did flawlessly. But once I got back to TN and hit the woods, I got a few minor scuffs but nothing that looked horrible. I did have quite a few layers over them, so that assisted in keeping it looking nice. Also maybe a clear coat would be good to have on it too.
