yeah man thanks yours looks good too, is the 450r carb the 39mm or the 40mm fcr carb? because- the 2004-2005 had 39mm carbs i just bought the 40mm used from a kid that had a 2007 trx450r then i had it bored to a 41.
oh and the 440 kits man those things make them work, i have a buddy with one of them i used to hill climb with here in pa.

i never had a car but been around trucks sense i can remember. first i had my 88 chevy s-10 durango pickup w/ a 2.8lv6. i had a 98 blazer with the vortec 4.3l v6 for a couple months before it died on me. nice green suv that was fully loaded. but after that i went back to the s10 until it was wrecked on the side of the road. only took pics of the s10, but took the blazers wheels.
then i got my dakota

My First car was supposed to be a `73 Plymouth Road Runner.
Rare machine, Red with White stripe... reminded me of the Starsky and Hutch Torino
Sadly, financial issues caused my Father not to be able to make that happen.
Growing up in Ottawa, Ontario, I never needed to get my license. the public transportation system was amazing, so why bother right?
Anyway, fast forward to age 27 and it's high time I get my license.
So, my "first car" was a 2002 Nissan Sentra XE, 4 banger with 5speed manual trans.
She treated me well.
I'll have to see if I can find some pics. She was 100% stock with the exception of the Limo Tint windows. nothin' fancy otherwise unless you count the 3M chip guard on the front clip (haha)
now, we've got Pearl.

dodgeramguy, i had the same problem with the 4x4 on mine, never fixed it tho and it still handled well offroad. nice s10 i would have killed for the 4.3 in the pickup. the 99 blazer had nothing but electrical problems and then the tranny died at like 80k. the s10 made it to 230k and got twice as much for a trade in.

Those are some sweet quads. I dont have any pics but i had a xr100 when i was like 10 years old, that thing was a blast. After about 300 hours of riding and not even cleaning the air filter it died on me hahaha!
Now i have a 2006 yz250f. Its enough bike for me, got a crap load of up and go, great motorcross bike. I used to ride a 650 yamaha quad(forgot the model) but man i would get tired after about the 10th lap, my arms would turn to jello. So i went to the bike since i can actually balance it better. I only raced competitively once and got 1st place lol. It was cuttthroat though, I think i ran over 2 peoples bikes and still came out of it. I ended up just saying no in the end cause i couldnt afford to repair my bike if that happened haha!

I can't seem to find any pictures of my first truck- '98 gmc sonoma 4 cylinder. I can only find pictures of the engine bay. That truck rocked. Quote from my old s10forum profile:
"98 2.2 sonoma with intake, als header, custom exhaust setup with a flowmaster 40 series and a turndown nice and clean behind the axle, 56mm throttle body, eurotails, xenon lights, 600 watt amp wired up to two 10" subs tucked behind the seats (damn standard cabs )
long story short: great truck for a teenager with all the skate/band stickers on the back window
goodtimes "

Here is the engine bay pic of my 4 banger Slownoma

I know, I know, this was a picture from a time when I knew absolutely nothing about trucks and how to care for them!
In my defense, my dakota is sweet
I also used to have a 2004 KX250f. I loved that bike. It only beat my @ss once when I flew into/between some trees lol
Here is the bike:
