I knew I knew it..... First place I got my XR650L stuck. Had less than 10 miles on the odometer. He's out near my family. When that shit gets wet it is the Devils mud!

Re: G6 wraith build
 

Nice work Josh, I can't wait to destroy the new stomping grounds Sunday.:mrgreen:

Re: G6 wraith build
 

The lights look really good. I like this Wraith.

Seeing you post on the shocks reminded me; I took your advice with the orange o-rings for the shocks. The set I got from you on the SCX chassis, I tore them down, cleaned everything, lubed everthing and took some scotch bright to the shafts. They are like new shocks.

Re: G6 wraith build
 

due to the rain our wraith beatdown session may be put off till we have some dry weather..that place is BAD mushy when it gets wet.

michael knows...hehe

Re: G6 wraith build
 

That shit is STICKY when wet.

How did you mount the rear light bezel

Re: G6 wraith build
 

had to trim edges to go around rear support arms..
then lined up on rear bar of rollcage..found good contact points
drilled 3 small holes 1 left 1 center 1 right..
drilled thru light housing into rollbar in each hole.
test fit..trim as needed
