Thanks to:
Big thanks to my friend Ryan for his help with listing and selling nearly 100 items on ebay within about 5 weeks, and lending a hand where needed while building the Honda and taking apart the YFZ. Also, big thanks to Joel Janssen ( www.janssenmotorsports.com ) for his assistance with parts and encouragement. Now its up to me to put the Honda out front!

Switched Brands 2
Anyway, so the TRX came home in the crate and was also completely disassembled to the bare frame. I then took the frame to work where I gusseted and dropped off to be powdercoated. So for a few weeks, the shop was klustered with YFZ and stock TRX parts being ebayed and waiting to be boxed and sent out (no room to walk). After some of the major YFZ parts were payed for, I was able to start ordering fast parts for the Honda. Nearly all the new parts came from Janssen Motorsports in Kaukana,WI and were sitting patiently waiting when the frame came home from powdercoating, then the build was on! Within 4-5 weeks the Honda project progessed from a thought in the air to being fully built and running on the track for its first shake down test!
