Foxx4Beaver:
that thing's lookin pretty stout!...how much does it weigh?
KXDINO:
I notice on one of the pics the front brake hose is on the out side of fork leg , unless you want it to hook on something I would put it back on the inside were it belongs , hate to see it get snagged on something and go for a soil test.

Skidplate weighs 2lbs 6oz. Waterpump and frame rails are very well protected.
KXDino, the pics you are looking at are complete mock-up pics, brake hoses will be proper.

First Ride Report:
16:42 gearing is awesome, I can't imagine riding this thing with stock gearing... It has torque for miles.
I'm running a 168 main, a 55 pilot, a #7 slide and a N82M Needle.
It has symptoms of running a little lean in the midrange: Momentary high idle when off the gas when hot, etc. The plug looks pretty good, just a little lean. Race gas and dropping the needle clip helped, but it's not perfect.
Next steps- I'm going to test a 58 pilot and maybe move up to a 170 main.
Rigid Industries LED lighting is amazing. The tiny taillight and the spaceship headlights are crazy. I was too busy riding to take pics, but will take some before we destroy this bike in Baja.
