Took the coil off my project 350x, and she started in 2 kicks!!!! So ****ing happy right now.

Has one piece missing from the rear and its about the size of half a quarter.

please do.. do you want that coil.. took the r out today and she really screams, something is rattling in the top end but dhit she'd give my tecate a run for her money... i pulled the pipe and carb and the piston looks brand new and it has some serious port work... hard to keep the front wheel down on her...

can you send me some pics of the fenders man? vwgli16vracer@yahoo.com had a blast riding the r out in the open for the first time. i don't know why but this thing fly's i'm really impressed, you have to keep her in the high r's but damn it fast, it's a little harder too ride on the trails than my tecated but almost as fun... the previous owners came by again to see the progress in 2 days, and told me the guy he got it from put a oversized piston and did some major porting, he also said it rattled like that from day 1... i probably put a good 3 hours on it with no problems seemed to get faster the more i rode it...

the liquid cooled R is a way way way better to have, IMO

i actuall got new bearings to go in my hammered carrier. bought them at the local bearing company. there supposed the be way better than oem or aftermarket specifically for the trike. the guy just whipped out some calipers and measured my broken pieces and went and grabbed me a pair. they were pretty spendy over 50 for the pair and he said that was half price... he called them double sealed. my carrier is so hammered on the left side a regular seal won't do anything anyways, i guess i'll see if they hold up till i get a new carrier...

i would be interested in the carrier but i don't care for extreme swingers. i have a +2 on my tecate and its perfect for all types of riding. i think the R is fine with a stock swinger...
