Great work Voodoo, Looks like my kind of work. Keep up the updates and pics.
    I haven't started yet but yours looks like what I'm wanting to do. I have an old 250 Odyssey as a platform for starter material ,along with a 400ex and a TRX 300 for parts donors. Can't wait to see the finished buggy.
   All you other guys really know your stuff. I hope to pick up a lot of great info. for my project. Later

LOL!! You mean 22 bux for the tach. I gotta laugh at people that say I PAID 10 bux for the tach and 12 for shipping. You aren't saying that ,I was just using it as an example. I had a customer about a month ago that asked the price of 2x4 8 foot long. I said 1.95. He said he could get them for 1.80 at another place 15 miles away.I thought  I'd work a deal with him and asked how many he wanted.He says 3. I said 1.95 is a good price. He says "FOOK YOU "I'm not paying that. I asked what he thought a 15 mile one way trip costs. He says " I don't care,I'm not paying you 45 cents extra no matter what".I said " Have a nice trip". DUMBASS!!!!

It's called screwing e-bay out of their cut. A lot of people do it. I always look at shipping before I bid. If it is worth the price with shipping I buy it. What I hate is paying $8 for shipping and getting an empty $3  shipping envelope with a hole in it.
