Atv Frame Mini Project

Well my mini project is complete.I used a small atv frame rims ,tires, gas tank and seat.Everything else I machined or fabbed up.It has a 5hp. Honda ,Tav2 drive .rear60 tooth sprocket.It has 1971 Yamaha front forks that I widened and shortened.It runs real good and smooth.It goes as fast as you want it to go with those fat tires.(a little hairy).Needs tore down after summer for a nice paint job.I think I have under $200 inti for parts.The boys like it alot and beat on it.I'm starting my next project,which is a Toyoco with a 125 cc.Yamaha engine smashed into it.Thanks G_REX
