Author Message   Chasespeed Posted on Sunday, January 22, 2006 - 11:12 pm:        Just curious, I was looking at a blast, and rememered a member here was working on creating a motard blast...just wondering how far it got..etc.. I remember the pic.. but... Anyway.. Chase   Bill00 Posted on Tuesday, January 24, 2006 - 05:32 pm:        Umm..you mean this one? I'm actually going for the dual sport thing, but it could be motarded very easily after I'm finished. With working long hours, looking for a house and fixing up my S3, I haven't got anything done to it, but I plan on starting back on it in the spring.   Chasespeed Posted on Tuesday, January 24, 2006 - 05:39 pm:        Yeah, thats the one...was just wondering on updates...thanks chase   Stealthxb Posted on Tuesday, January 24, 2006 - 05:42 pm:        Bill00... That is freaking sweet. Keep us up to date!   Bobbyhead Posted on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - 12:02 am:        Here's another one, but I don't know anything more about it.   Fullpower Posted on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - 01:29 pm:        two questions bill: how much poundage were you able to scrape off the Blast, and what are your plans for front brake?   Glitch Posted on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - 01:40 pm:        Here's another one, but I don't know anything more about it. PhotoChop   Natexlh1000 Posted on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - 01:58 pm:        Would it be more easy to yank out the engine and jam it in a new frame? How much does a blast engine weigh?   Bill00 Posted on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - 06:17 pm:        Probably not saving much weight if any with the larger forks. The wheels are aluminum, but I'm running heavy duty inner tubes. I'm using an oversize brake rotor kit for a Yamaha YZ. It's a direct bolt on. The suspension parts, wheels and brake master cylinders and calipers are Cannondale leftovers. I would guess that it would take more cutting and welding to put the Blast engine in another frame than this will take.
