For the last 18 months, I've been replacing full quarters, trunk, tail panel, wheel housings, etc. etc. etc. Here's a before pic of what I started with.  The roof is currently in epoxy primer and will get a black vinyl top. I just picked it up from the paint shop today. I felt like I was on Overhaulin' when I saw it. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Yes, that is a Honda motorcycle fender and I do ride motocross. I also have a KTM that I race supermoto with. I need a bigger garage obviously.  Nobody has done my top yet. It's only black epoxy primer right now but it does look like vinyl in the photos. I have the top and am debating on putting it on myself or having somebody else do it.

Sure has come a long way. Looks great! :yesnod: Have someone put the top on, save ya some headache.

I have rode many KTM's. KTM America uses a Motocross track, Amherst Meadowlarks, that I am a member at here in Ohio, for R&D and testing. My good friend is a mechanic for team KTM as well. RIDE RED ! :yesnod:

What year Honda is that? I had a 04' CRF450. I race the B class here in Ohio.  I also do a little freestyle. We have a nice ramp in the back yard. I will have to post some pics. RIDE RED! :yesnod: :mcride: :mcride:

What a transformation, it looks great!! :o I bet having it back has really lit a fire under you now, eh? ;D

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

BMOTOXSTAR, where are you in Ohio? I am in the Toledo area and ride the best bike to ride. It is an 04 YZ450F with VERY modified suspension and 13 to 1 modified motor. I used to run the B class 10 years ago and just bought this thing last fall. I had the suspension set up for me after the buy. I have my old addicition back. I am a 35 year old sick man. I am loving it again. Ride Blue.
If it ain't wide open; it ain't running.        Rule number one in motocross racing: Pin it; row the gear box; and wait until you hit something.     At work my motto is: If you need me, call someone else.
