    Default Project CRFX Re-Vamp!

    After 3 years of abuse and misuse I have decided to start my rebuild. Being a Parts Manager at a Honda shop always provides good discounts

    Initial Build in 2007:











    Then the ABUSE commenced......








    And... now some initial crappy quality rebuild pics..




    I have laundry list of parts on order... should start seeing them trickle in next week... GOTTA BE READY FOR SPRING!!!!

    That would be my pop's bike.... its a blast to ride when he lets me within 10 feet of it (which isn't too often).

    I went there about two weeks ago...Brother Carl was working the new dirt section with the tractor…It was a beautiful sunny day and awesome for riding. I had the whole track to my self...

    I finally had the chance to ride the new surface and it was a blast. The only negative is I did get a bit of motion sickness with all the tight turns.

    You Need to come down and check it out ...Break in the new CRFX setup!
