As bad ass as those are. I don’t consider those quads. To me, it needs to be a duner with monster power and a average swing arm(+2) that you have to ride and clutch to keep the wheels down.

I'm glad it wasn't me that said that!

Single purpose machines. It's a hill shooter/drag race thing.

I never went down that road, cause as fast as you are, tomorrow, someone will build something faster.

It's a sport. Fun to watch though!

Me? I'd rather be out riding.

I’m with you Joe! I built duners with power, lined up at olds with some guys to see how I held up. Even if I got beat, it was ok, I wasn’t going to go home and find more power. The fun was in the dunes.

I really enjoy having the power to hit the big bowls with plenty of torque/power left in the throttle to fool around or get out of trouble.

I miss duning on a quad/atc. Kids are old enough to ride now, hopefully that will get us back on quads more.

I'm thinking about selling my stuff if your interested.

LT400 and the LTZ450. I have more sets of tires than I can count!

Both are set up for the desert, dunes and trails, depending on what tires you run. I have one set of MX tires also.

TCS shocks on all of em, Scott's Stablizer on the 400.

The 400 also has the DRZ-E base gasket and cams. Counter to what Larry thinks, it does NOT have a 440 kit! . Lagers a-arms, AVS levers, stainless brake lines, blah blah blah. Gusseted new frame as well.

Anyhow...

You have my number

The rare Sundahl frame!!

That is not a Sundahl chassis in that picture

 

[Dunerking]

Dang almost looked like it with the I-beam style front arms. Clue us in on who’s frame that is.

Lew Jr. The son of Louie Swan Twister Crankshafts. Lew Jr. Had a company called "Chassis Inc" for awhile. It had a 10mm Mini Billet(his dads cyls and crank) in it.

The front arms look very similar! Always wanted to ride one of the Sundahl Banshees! How does well does that setup work?

I have never ridden one. Use to help out a friend racing class 1 car and he got his start in desert racing on a Sundahl banshee. True long travel front and rear. Said he was running an 8 gallon fuel tank. Said it was like straddling a zeplin!! Works like a twin beam front end. Definitely waaaay ahead of its time.
