    Pipe mount showed up finally, hate the wait some times.
    So its pretty much finished. Make a kick stand mount and fab up a skid plate.
    Break it in at the track next weekend and then off to the mountains very soon.

    Thanks
    Got a kick stand and skid plate its home made and put it on the 84, so nice having a kickstand.
    The mount was cut off, so i made 1 also.

    Simple skid plate, should hold up to any thing though.

    It shakes a ton, not the best low end either. Then it explodes with power like a light switch.
    The 430 is the beast, runs friggen wild. So much power all over, love that motor and Lectron.

    Awesome looking bikes! Little differences here and there. intriguing to sit and compare the suspension angles, is that some visual effect or are the rakes on the front end that different?
