Well, its been a long time coming. And I have been lagging on creating a project thread due to the fact that I have not taken any nice pictures as of yet. But will try to do so soon and add them to this thread.
A little background on my build...
It started a year ago when I sent a head out to get ported and purchased a Venom piston. Well, from that point on I ran into a string of bad luck which included a badly broken foot and ankle that has taken me almost 9 months to recover from. During that time I was unable to work and did not have much to do but to work on my build. And that I did... I can't say how much time I have into it (did'nt keep track) but I know its hundreds of hours.
Now, some things about this build that aren't really visible. All of the aluminum that I polished on this R was sealed with Zoop Seal which should prevent any oxidation for about 2 years. I also sealed all of the powder coating with 2 coats of polymer sealant. The other thing not very visible is all of the hardware used to put it back together. 100% of the nuts and bolts are polished stainless steel. Even items such as the carb were put back together with stainless hardware.
Okay, some details on my 2005 TRX471R...

Okay, I think that's everything except a few small billet items that I can't remember the brand.
Also, if someone decides to add up the cost of all the above.... PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME. I don't want to know... cause it would probably give me a heart attack.
That's enough typing.... I'll let the pics do the rest of the talking.

oh4: Excuse me while I go and clean my shorts!! lol You can tell that a whole lot of time and more time went into that bike. By far one of the nicest/cleanest I've seen to date.
