that is what it looks like now still need to rebuild the bottom end
 
oh yah,take n measure, how many links u have in 6 inches,double that and add it to the stock links count,pretty easy.I don't know how many links i have for the +4, i had a chain with like 116 links,put it together ran the chain cut n added the master link .I am guessing 105 links for the +4, add 2 more doubled, prolly close to 110 links or so to be safe?i have too much redneck in me haha
 
plug chop :

Warm up motor to operating temp.

Fit new B8ES plug, ride through the gears and hold WOT in 5th or 6th gear for 10 seconds, or as long as you can safely.

Switch off the motor and pull in the clutch, roll to a stop.

Take the plug out and replace the old one for the ride home.

Carefully cut the threaded end off the plug to expose the insulator.

There should be a smoke ring of a cardboard or biscuit colour around the insulator.

a plug chop is to make sure your jetting is right
 
Goos luck man,Can't wait for the pics fo sure.I for one am totaly enjoyin this 200 dollar wheeler.Although i have some hours in her now,worth it tho,i love these wheelers
 
Lookin sweet,i went 4 inches,happy with it,i like wheelies but i think it would still do em with a 6 inch,I am debating it,not hard to do.
