Thanks that will help a lot! I just need to start tearing it apart, that is the scary thing for me. I'm not scared about ripping it apart, I'm scared I will lose time to be able to put it back together!
 
Ha ha. Thanks. I know it's a big achievement, however what I didn't talk about is the countless design and CAD hours I put in before diving in to this one.
I took design ideas from all over on this. I like that Polaris braces the from mount, but you see so many Pros with bent tunnels. I felt that Cat / Doo had it figured out. That's were I used the rear pyramid from idea from.
The bottom tube was a carry over from tube chassis that others have done. I liked the lower tube, but could justify an entire tube chassis, so I just incorporated it in to the boards.

On similar note, I came to realize that all of these things added weight. But at the end of the day, we all ride Yamahas for the reliability. I wasn't going to sacrifice strength in some areas just for a bit lighter weight.

Feel free to take away anything you find helpful. I'd like to see projects like this go more open source. Information sharing is how I learned, and it's only fair to pass it on. If anyone wants some information or dimension, I have it readily available.




Well, I could one at idle. But an action video may have to wait until next year. We had some very mild weather (+18*C and wind) this week, and it destroyed all the snow.
I'm in no rush. No where near that talented to design and fab nearly from scratch. That's why I love seeing these builds gives me hope one day I'll be able to

I know what you mean by making Projects in a household garage, but i would be happy with the size of your garage :)

I love this build. Any update on how it rode or anything you have changed if you were building it again. I am going to put a nytro motor in a dragon chassis one of these days, and like seeing what other people have done. Thanks for sharing.
 
VERY NICE....haven't been here for a while, and stumbled across your build which is very impressive. Thanks for sharing it.

cheers
