I'm 90% sure that motor came out of an MX400. The original water pump cover had a 90 degree bend in it and didn't stick straight out.
I don't beleive that shock was used in the original either. The first shock at the show had a yellow spring. We used that same shock for the running prototype. I remember receiving that shock and it sat for a long time out back, but we could've used it at some point, my memory is fading... I remember testing a shock with a red spring from Arvin but not Fox....
Good stuff brings back loads of memories!!!

Guys take a good look at the plastic right where your knees would be.Talk about narrow!I wonder if a stock set of plastic could be setup like that?Anyone want to try some heating and bending?All we would need are different spar covers.

I love that plastic. I have thought about shaving the plastic down a little just so my knees don't hit the edge of the plastic. That hurts so bad when you over shoot a jump and the first thing that hits is the knee on that edge...ouch! I know it would look ugly but at least it would feel a little better and my knees would go back to their normal color.
Must have been sleeping, just came across this.
Couple of queastions: 1, where is the battery on this quad?
2, is the steering stem mount a round billet peice??
I'm sure I'll see some more stuff, but if 4-stroke would answer those, I'd appreciate it. :usa
OH, and thank you for all the hard work and time you have invested in the Cannondale Paul. I know it is very sad what happened, but you have made the atv world a better place. I don't think yamaha or honda would have stepped up without the dale.

Protraxrptr: I am currently a consultant for FOX Racing Shox.
Haydug: The battery is where the airbox currently is. Yes that is a round billet piece. I have pics, if anyone wants to resize them for posting I'd be more than happy to send them.
Also thanks for the compliment, but remember I was one part of a great team of people. I have never worked with a more enthusiastic team of people in my life. All the way from the engineers to the people on the line making it happen, it was truly an amazing time!
