Specinator's buggy
« on: September 29, 2008, 11:27:56 AM »
I finished this build over a year and a half ago...It was for my wife(The Specinator) unfortunately she is not a big fan of the buggy... she'd rather tool around the trails at the dunes in the crappy brown jeep ::)
It is powered by a 100+ horse 500 polaris , has 14.5" of wheel travel all around,disc brakes all around, I fabbed up the pipes,muffler, tank etc... in shop...Pretty much all was fabbed in shop except the 250 R hubs and spindles up front...

VDC4,
4 years ago the tendons in my arms went south, The spine has been along time comingDegenerative discs,and degenerated vertabrae, I,ve been down with the spine since 1st of the year...Happy new year to me ;D...I didn't want any surgeries...I only had heard bad stuff about them in the past...But the chiro for 10 months has been just chasing shit around my back...My ribs and shoulders keep popping out of place...
Probably some of the problems we had in the past were due to the pain meds,frustration,and of course the couple of beers to put me to sleep at night ;D
