I like the silver and the bling'n side plates. I know you said powerplant is yet to come but do you have an idea of which way you are leaning? 2 stroke, 4 stroke, 60 HP, 80 HP
For right now i am looking at Al Hodges motors(all 4-strokes). I have checked on some Kohlers but Al Hodge is very close within 30 min. Monroe, N.C. The 30HP is a good deal, turn key.
The Kohlers can get up to 80hp and turn very high RPM's. Right at this moment unless something changes my mind i will run the 30HP and then hope to move up in HP later on.
I want to ensure that i have something to race with at Ash next year and this would be a good shakedown engine. I know if i go big from the start i am going to hammer it
That 30 HP is plenty to HAMMER. Just enough power to get you into or out of a lot of trouble. I love it!!!!!!!

This is the alignment tool Brian(Race) built for me he did a great job on this tool. Robbie (RDR) also made me one. I now have two!..
The pictures are of the initial setup to center the bearings and measure bolts for the correct length.
The frame has a 45 on each corner so spacers had to be made to accommodate the angle. These spacers came with the kit and work great! I am still collecting parts as i had no machine and now have a few parts Thanks to all the members that share parts i am finding what i need.
I have started an excel spreed sheet to catalog all parts that will go into this machine by Vendor, item and item number. This might be a bit scary!
The new seat cover will reflect the coming color of the Crush!! Seat is same color but is on back order.
Now the fun begins. This thread is going to feel like anticipating giving birth again....sorta.
