everything is now stripped & de-greased. while i wait for the right lump to turn up i've been playing with the rake, ride height & stance. Yep that's a clothes prop acting as an axle :wondering my tri is going to be street based & i'm aiming for a fighter look, purist's look away!

Looks like you have a "vision" of what you want it to look like? Thats good to have a plan and stick with it. Street legal? Sounds like fun. And remember, if you have Q's. Do ask. There are many intelligent people here on 3ww that can offer great advice. Good luck.

thanx for the positive comments, thought I was gonna be strung up by you guys for modding it for the road.
I could really do with some advice on extending the axle, i've read that the Banshee axle is wider & goes straight in but not sure if there are any Banshee's over here? Is there any other way of widening?

Spacers and extended hubs will widen it out some, and work fine if it's going to be used on streets.

What's the "fighter" look?

Yep loads of banshee's over here plus alot of aftermarket parts too......best place up your way is www.atvworld.com in Leeds not cheap but will have what your looking for(spacers or wider axle).....also if your Z is going on the road i wouldn't go too wide on the back axle because it makes it alot harder to steer around corners and round abouts are not much fun with a wide axle:D :D :D :D
