Just got started on my XP 850 build,been kinda busy so this is a quick pic update for a few that asked....

Went with a center airbox intake snorkel,to increase air flow with minamal bends.
Took the snorkels to the rear for the belt as i wanted all 2 inch and minamal bends and length as possible. The xp `s are a sob to front center mount....

Trimmed and braced the footwells...

Covered the ugly heat shield with a little allumium bling...lol

what do you have on the air filter? and how are you going to get the rear seat on? No really it looks awesome. What type of paint did you use to paint that beautiful machine? and was it beat up in the first place, did you have to sand it or use some type of filler? I know I ask a lot of questions, but how else will I know, cheers.

I took the whole thing off ,but you can just pull the rods and zip/wire the sway bar up to try it out.My tires should be in this week, with 30`s it looks like around 18+ inchs G.C. with springs and the RD lift. Holy crap this is gettin a big bike....Let me know how you like it with the sway bar off.....

ok will do ,checked out some different forums on removing the sway bars,they are saying much better in the mud but lose some of the higher speed cornering,i think that with the riding we do i would prefer better tire to the mud ,and with the ground clearances we have this would be a good thing
