Sidewinder Yamaha YZ490 Run Down

Run down of my Sidewinder build.
Any questions feel free to ask.

[@eldoradodiago2553]

[@chadlikable]

[@bradbell3818]

[@DonnDIY]

This is awsome! Gongrats on the finished build!

[@Customwinder1]

Nice work mate. Bet she goes good with the 490!. I'm running an NX 650. I've customized mine a fair bit as well. Did the floor clutch like yourself. I'm starting a build on the Edge Products X2. Planning on putting a 1200 Bandit motor in her. I'll put some vids up on my channel as she's being built. Love ya work!

[@chadlikable]

They are a no name brand and yes i have considered using a different set of shocks for the front but its a $2500 change over for the ones i want and at the mow these do the job. Cheers

Wow that thing is awsome nice job I want to make one of these but I need help if i want to make one im only a young teen but maby in a couple of years because I dont know very well how to welled allso I dont kow how to angle metal

[@chadlikable]

"They" are THE EDGE, who is the company who designed the buggy. Worth checking them out.

[@erlendszvaigzne3863]

How much did this actually costed for you? Because i'm planin to build one like this but with 600cc engine!?

[@СаняИскандеров]

Hi. can you give the dimensions?

[@pimpss88]

that is one bad ride.greetings from america

[@PhatArtz]

wow, you are one clever dude! How does the fuel get over to the motor? Do you use a fuel pump?

[@nunofortunato2419]

Nice Work! i am building a Sidewinder too, will use a KX500 Motor from an old 83 Model. do you use a Vacuum Fuel Pump?

[@joefoster259]

What shocks are on the front? I understood you used a YZ250 rear shock. Have you considered changing the front shocks as I saw the front of the buggy sagging some under normal running load? Thanks

[@justin-dr6sx]

Have you still got it? Also the 490 bike? Nice work by the way👍

[@chadlikable]

No I don’t have it anymore.

[@justin-dr6sx]

@chadlikable No worries. I got one I'm about to restore.

[@Wyattronnebaum]

what kind of metal did you use? What was the cost of the metal altogether?

[@louisscholes3071]

how much did it cost?

[@MrMulc]

WHAT A DETAILS! GREAT

[@spencercastle6846]

What does that saying mean?

[@04218158]

airbox on the airpod looks really restrictive

[@revolutiondreaming]

Hi. The chain keeps coming off mine. What's that bracket thing around the rear sprocket holding the chain in place? That may be exactly what I need. Cheers.

[@davidseaton5521]

that thing around the sprocket is a chain and sprocket protector, if your chain is jumping off, then u got an alignment issue. hope i help solve your issue.

[@chadlikable]

mild steel. and just the steel prob cost bout $1000 i think

[@jussa2446]

Muito bom bem esclarecido.

[@chadlikable]

cheers mate

[@pimpss88]

just in case you don't know american vernacular bad is good in this case.Sorry I just didn't want to look stupid.peace and safe riding

[@suubberud123]

... Dear santa....

[@CalvinsCorner72]

You keep saying "they" say to do this and that. So who's THEY?

[@williamstaten8102]

+Calvin's Corner72I think what he is referring to is the machine was built from plans from Edge.

[@CalvinsCorner72]

+william staten It wasn't clear who THEY was so this is why I asked. Thanks William
