If that nic in the plastic where you slipped really bothers you, you can wet sand it out and buff it and it should be mint

Over 2000 years Aristotle stated that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This gem of a build is proof of that. This is your finest work yet Mike. As I said before, it would be at home in an art gallery. I hope some billionaire comes along and offers to buy it for his permanent collection. Outstanding job, Michael.

Beautiful machine. I watched the build from start to finish.

I can only imagine your pain. I just got a Maier Raptor 350 hood in the mail today and it just doesn't fit right. It's only one piece Maier, what the hell? I just gotta keep my 6 feet social distance so it looks good. Lol. It's looking nice man. Incredible build. Thanks for the video.

The more a look at it, the more I love it, very unique build and definitely needs more attention 🤙🏻

[@jonnylong7927]

That quad is amazing and I love the color, definitely a 10/10 build. The only thing that I would change is the air filter, I would put a foam pod filter that's been heavily oiled with a prefilter, just a suggestion from a dirt bike mechanic, it'll save that beautiful engine in the long run. Also change the filter after every ride! 👍

I wanted to say hello from S.D. I'm glad your out there building this and others alike, makes it all worth it to see such a fine hand not missing a beat. I myself hold similar qualities and people think I'm a little overboard for it, but in the end only types like you could ever end up with what you created.

The stress marks on the rear fenders can be fixed with a little heat, from a heat gun. The heat will remove most of the white looking stress marks. I use this method a lot on automotive interior plastic parts.

You can use a little heat on those stress marks in that plastic to change the color back to what it was. You could also use a heat gun and lots of patience and reform those plastics to line up with the nerf bars better.

Dam this thing is fireeeee nerf bars are sick the whole get up reminds me of a military Humvee

I could go on for days about this build, you should be very proud and happy, that is a top notch build, people are gonna go nuts at the dunes, be careful out there and let it rip.

Now we're talkin

[@BigCodyFPV]

You're gonna have it epic time bro! I'm so excited for you I can't wait for you to go riding on the sand dunes for your first time on a 250 R!!! I've been riding dunes my whole life I think there the funnest place to ride still after living all over the country in riding every type of terrain dunes are still my favorite and that's why I moved to the Oregon coast so I could live at the dunes. Gonna have a blast bro I am really excited to see you rip it out there!!!!!!! You're gonna have such a fun time!!! Sand is all about momentum so so just stay in it will you going up anything and remember when you get to some whooped out sections lean back with your butt up off the seat so that the quad move under you relatively freely and so your front end of the light in stays out of the dips between the whoops while you're staying in the power band moving across the top of that whoops. That's faster and less painful in my humble opinion to hit the whoop sections that way, peace bro go have fun!!!!!!! P.S. Hope my explanation of how to ride a whoop section make sense! Lol

[@BigCodyFPV]

P.P.S. Oh and always kind of look far ahead so you know who's in your area and who's around where you're riding so you don't unexpectedly running to someone else at the crest of a dune when y'all are both going over in different directions it happens all the time here when Dunefest rolls through and that's the cause of most of the hospital trips so if you can avoid that one thing by just staying aware of where other people are around you, you gonna be alright.

[@codykuiper9613]

I remember when this was a drawing. Looks awesome dude. See ya on the dunes💪

[@michael.filipenses4132]

You can put some sort of rubber seal type stuff to bridge the gap on the hood will protect the plastic from later wear will also keep dirt out
