A couple of buddies met me at the lake today and we did some after work crawlin'...
Props to the photographer.....
Flexes a little more than I anticipated, the 650 truck has a wicked little double shackle set up in the ront that works pretty good. Not very good battery life with the stock drivetrain.

Thanks, I learned from watching the best.

I don't know man, you're pretty dangerous with a vehicle of any kind. Billy Bob is off the hook. Kudos on that build. Since this mounty has a bent frame, it's my runner. I have a few more frames that are in the build stages now. Got some secret little bolt on goodies for those. I'll show you guys in a few weeks.;-)

Very nice pictures, I really like the look of the courier and those wheels are real nice as well. I see you did the buggy leaf as well. The f650 has an interesting shackle set up, looks like it works pretty good.
