Whats to flame, I think its pretty cool.
The drum rear brake is about the only thing I would do different.
The rekluse might not be such a good idea. With that much to haul around, and if your in the wrong gear, that thing is going to eat itself...
Its not a "torque conveter" like a automatic tranny has.
Cool build...

What's the intent? Why go fat?
Cool modification. I'm just curious as to the motivation for it.

Its in my intro, but, I had converted it to a 3 wheeler years ago for some drag action and a few dune rides. Got tired of racing 30,000 $ banshees and sno-mo quads. So I converted back. I sold off all my oem 500 parts after the 3 wheel conv. to recoup some costs. So what was left was to fab a swingarm. Now its going to be a 60hp pack mule. Going to chop a gen 2 125 and get an af together, may or not get the fatty.

Would look cool if he could get the front guard in a wider version of what he has.
Rad location im not sure about.
Other than that, some fantastic fab skills thats for sure.

as for the fat tires, think of the traction you would get with one of those quad paddles on there. i agree, in dirt it wouldnt be much fun, but it is a perfect dune bike.

In the dirt is a blast. Think of all the traction you get EVERYWHERE.

apparently the wider tripples would smash the rads in the stock locations.
