I haven't updated for a while, cause there ain't much to update.

I fixed the broken plug a few days after I posted pictures of the carnage, and I've just been drivin' it to work and stuff since then.



But I did get hold of a nasty tool box.

What I've done: (Tool box, lost some sheet metal)



What I want to do:

For some ridiculous reason, I just can't ever get enough money together to regear...

but I think my dad is gonna buy my old tires, and then in another week or two I should be able to order some 5.29's.

I will most likely only see it in the pics you take anyways.  Hurry and smash it up.   Then you can tell people that you did an awesome bob jobb only to have it get all smshed up on the trail.  LOL

It actually has a smoother ride, and very little loss in power.
