Love the videos, Bro! I've had my eighty seven gladzilla for years. The last ten of them have been just sitting. Watching your videos gave me the motivation to bring the beast back to life!!! Thank you, my friend. I might need some help with my build. I'll hit you up if I do...
Still here and actually plan to film a couple new projects this year. Just very little time to ever film anything. Have added about a dozen new machines to the collection in the hiatus though. Some insane stuff
Hey I just grabbed a 1987 frame today to restore with my son can you send me a link to that lift and where you got the rear swing arm and front a arms plz
Dude you got some legit frames there. iv seen videos of the giy that made that style a arm/suspension system and its super sick and innovative especially for the older machines they're making them for.
James from x travel is not the same. Also my srps have the shocks mounted vertical 16’ travel Axis shocks. Works blows. He’s got 18 because of the 12’ rims. Most are 16’ front and rear.
Haha I hear you man. I’ve been collecting like crazy in the meantime. Dying to share some of these new builds with you guys. Just haven’t had any time to turn a wrench in forever. Planning to come back some time this year
Appreciate that! Thankfully, I can say that in this hiatus I’ve collected a lineup of quads that is in a league of their own. Almost a dozen new bikes and counting. I plan to come back at some point this year. I’m dying to share some of these new builds with you guys
I’m acquiring a zilla from a close buddy of mine just don’t have it in my garage yet. Iv watched your series on these quads before and had and have a cpl 89-92 rm250s. I had to come back for pointers I’m going to need. I have my first bike still 92 rm250. I’d love to restore the zilla to match the 92 rm but I feel a little bit de sacrilegious to paint the frame yellow on a zilla. I was thinking of vapor honing the entire motor to rid the blue on that but after seeing yours dripping wet looking I don’t believe I can change that either lol. Thank you 😊
Looked like a great time. I raced snowmobiles for 15 years Snow cross and pro cross country. Was very good many wins and championships. Miss the racing but what I miss most is the hole adventure of it all. Seeing new places meeting different people. U mentioned how cool it was just mingling meeting people u thought u probably never would good times. Did some dirt bike racing and hill climbing never was as good on 2 wheels but again the adventure of it all is whats special. Great video awsome collection keep doing what ur doing killing it. Thanks for sharing
I actually like to put hear shrink over the rubber part of spark plug cap. From cap to the wire just a little insurance lol!! Man i love ur build so cool
Man so sweet cant wait to find a 3rd gen build my own. I would try finding a fist gen air box if it will bolt up. Or take the heat gun form the box around silencer. It has to go one one way or the other lol!! May even chop up the silencer and do some welding maybe idk.
So, you've got shop boots that perfectly.Protect the shocks, but you're not goingna run them because you think it looks better.So what you're telling us is you're a fucking idiot That or you've got money to burn and just don't give a shit....
This doesn't work and engine can only work at a certain pressure you can increase the pressure in the cylinder to make more power but the exhaust would not allow anymore pressure it would work the opposite you would get less power rather than more
I have a question, but first let me start with you have a few top notch builds and factory Quadzillas in your shop, along with the banshee. My question for you is there any other way to distinguish the 87 Zilla frame from the 88, 89 & 90 model years? Other than the double flange mounting brackets coming off the front upper A-arms of the frames as opposed to the 87 Zilla only having a single flange mounting bracket from the factory? Can you elaborate please? Thank you kindly for any & all info related
Nice work ,great video, are all the bikes in the background yours? I have a 85 and a 86 both are pretty good looking and running bikes. I live in Santee ca so I have had Lennard Duncan do some engine work on both bikes. The swing arms are definitely the weak point on the 85 and 86 models 92 looks way better.
Nice bro I love my 91 lt250r. I also have a channel you can check mine out if you get a chance. I also do Quad Talk Live every wednesday night if your ever interested in coming on as a guest. lmk please
Unfortunately they’ve been discontinued for a few years at this point. Full sets pop up from time to time on Facebook forums and on eBay. Only downside is that they’re as expensive as a complete zilla. I think there’s a set on eBay right now for what it’s worth.
Good job on the resto man!! I’m looking for a good project ‘92 LT250R to do the same thing. Having a hard time locating one. Do you happen to know of any?
I just build a Duncan motored lt250r from a junker and ebay parts. I did the eliminator port. A little too pipey with a. Short burst of high rev horsepower, but it’s still a lot of fun. I raced these back in the late 80’s early 90’s. I am in love with light two strokes.
