You guys sure did go muddin. Its hard to believe thats the same three wheeler. LOL. I went muddin today as well on my YTM 200. We just got 7 inches of snow the other day, and it all melted today. That says it all. Can you say mud? My friend just got a brand spanking new Polaris Explorer 250, (2001 model, NEVER driven) and the first time he rode it, he took it mudding. Never seen anyone take a brand new one to the mud pit. Anyways, we had a fun time washing them after the mud was caked on. My front tire had so much mud/clay on it that it was touching the fender!! o Hope to do it again soon.

The mud is a little cold for my taste, but the boy don't seem to mind it. He's been bugging me to go riding for a while now. I got him a ytm200 a while back but he prefers the Honda (I cant blame him for that) :-D

Where did you get that fork support right above the tire? I could use 1 as it would seem to hel stabile the front end from natural flex and wabble. Take that sucker off and send it to me. I will have my machinist duplicate a few of them and then return it.

I went for a ride the other day, the only mud we could find was a small but deep puddle, just big enough to fit in a back wheel! :( Still got a roost out of it though! :D
We tokk the camera but forgot to take photos Duh! Nothing special to record anyway :?

Love the fork brace! Where can a regular guy get one?

I wish Icould tell you guys where to find a fork brace, but I lucked out when I found this one. I found it on Ebay and only paid like $20.00 for it.
I've never seen another one like it(atleast not for threewheelers).

lisnup65... if you want i could send you some closeup pics of the brace, but
im not about to send the real thing. :-D

What are those tank fins? They dont look stock.

I think I saw some tank fins like that in the dennis kirk catalog. Their called "super scoops" if im not mistaken. Their supposed to increase airflow to the engine, allowing better cooling. The were priced around $20 I believe.

i need some super scoops, esp. for that dog poo! i bet those would really help on a hot day, riding slow.

No, there not on backwards that's a 350x front-end and I love it. That in combination with an (+4)extended swingarm seems to work real good. I'm gonna try a 350x shock soon.

And yes, they are Maier super scoops

I did'nt know that was posible. cool. I'd like to beef up my front end. so all I need is a complete front end from a 350x?

Yes, but a little modification to the steering stops will need to be done. It's not hard to do. You will also need the front caliper and brake line. The 200x hub, rim and brake disc can be reused.

Some close up pics would be great. The real thing would be better as my machinist could set the program off of it for quick duplication. I understand the reluctance thiugh as I am a bit new around here.
Pica and any dimensions you could gather would be great. Please email to lisnup65@yahoo.com

If I am able to duplicate at a reasonable cost are other interested. I would like 3 for myself. I do know that I have 4 front end setups here and all 4 are different. Either the tube diameter is diff or the spacing between the tubes is diff. I will try and design for all, but I would need to know what front ends are looking for this type of supportive brace.
