Somehow I get the idea you want to get this one up and running sooner rather than later, by the rate it`s progressing. Think I`d be the same ;)

WTG, I`m loving this one and can`t wait to see the first video run when completed.

Front forks are now fully complete with steering head bearings. Its a strange set up as the triple trees are backwards and is called a horse headBlink, no idea as it looks nothing like a horse head, but thats how they say to assemble it!LOL BigGrin The motor is now in its frame and swing arm has been fitted. The rear shock absorber is oil filled, the front forks are not. Next up is the main frame that all the sub assemblies mount too, including radio receiver and servos.BigGrin

Nice progress Daran and it certainly looks like an awesome piece of kit, I can see you having a lot of fun with that? What you really need is to find someone else who owns one and who you can race against, that would be very cool?! BigGrin ThumpUp

I'm looking forward to you showing us it running BigGrin Cool

WOAH !!! Blink Blink Blink

How big is this thing when complete?

It looks way bigger than the ones in the Vids early on in this thread.

Cool Cool Cool

May be an optical thing but looks sweet. Love

Great build WTG.
