Title: Just Venting and a Thank You Post by: SkyHighT100 on February 07, 2005, 09:26:34 AM AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/contrib/ruinkai/screama.gif) I just need to vent! Most of you know that my 300 has been down since October... man it has been a LONG 4 months! Scooter, God bless him, has been working his butt off trying to finish it. His dad has been great too, his garage looks like a 300ex graveyard. But lately it seems like everytime we get close to finishing it, something happens. For the last month and half the completion of "Project Pink Flamingo" (Yes, I thought of that all by myself, lol ;D) has been held up by three fairly simple tasks. 2 of which only come down to placing an order, which will happen once my broke azz gets a little money ;). The other... well... the last.. most important of the holdups on the otherhand has been a nightmare. Due to situations beyond our control things just happen. I can not wait to get this bike finished. Not so much so that I can ride it, but so that we no longer have to deal with the headaches of things just not working out and neither of us being able to do a thing about it. Hopefully, if things for once can go right, we will have the bike done by the April 23rd Group Ride. But the way things have been going, we wont make any promises, lol.
Thank you Scooter for all of your hard work, it means a lot to me, I dont know what I would do without you. Even if I never owned a quad, I dont know what I would do without you. You have turned so many of my dreams into realities, thank you for everything you do! You're great! As for Scooter's new quad... wooo, it's fun, hehe. If anyone is looking to buy a 4x4 I 100% recommend it. We had a blast this past weekend, even got it dirty ;) Title: Re: Just Venting and a Thank You Post by: 01_DS650 on February 07, 2005, 01:20:48 PM What u doing to the bike and can we see some pics

I believe it's the 3rd page in the Photo Forum, the title is Project 300ex. My biggest holdup right now is getting the frame done. As soon as that is finished we can start assembling it... I cant wait... for LOTS of reasons :-/

Title: Re: Just Venting and a Thank You Post by: SkyHighT100 on February 07, 2005, 06:27:27 PM Heck ya, padded walls dont sound bad, lol. I've moved passed the withdrawl stage... now I'm at the "tired of the BS" stage and just want it sitting in the garage again, lol. It's all good though, cant do anything about things that are out of your control. It'll be well worth the wait I can promise you that ;)

My 400 started out as a 2 month tops project and it ended up taking 6 but it'll all be worth it in the end. If there's anything I can do to help, yall just Holla! [smiley=ThumbsUp.gif]

It's not the best but it'll carry you down the trails! In 2-1/2 months I have riden it twice around my retention pond. that amounts to like 30 minutes of riding time. :(
