i just picked up this 2001 blaster for... ready for this $350!!!
it runs great and came with a bunch of parts nerf bars, full fmf pipe, aluminum grab bar, douglas wheels with holeshots, hydraulic rear brake setup, extra set of shocks, and i also got the stock wheels and tires and stock exhaust. all it needed was a swing arm and carrier, which i have already got along with a whole other complete blaster frame for free..woo hoo

thanks guys, yea it deffinatly needs a cleaning and mike there moose bars but they might as well be bicycle bars. ive got plans for it so its gonna get stripped for powdercoat, the guy that does my powdercoating has a wicked blaster ill post up some pics when i get the time.
 
well i got my rear brakes done today the master cylinder i got with it was junk so i ended up using the master cylinder, resivior, and caliper off of a kawasaki kfx400. it works great, ill get some pics of the setup tomorrow. im impressed with how nice i made it look..lol
 
here are some pics of my hydraulic rear brake setup, its pretty simple and would be relitively easy to replicate if you wanted to.

and yes i know its still dirty as hell...lol
 
oh im planning on putting alot into it..lol, eventually its getting widened stretched, powder coated everything, disk front brakes, 240 kit, and i havent decided on what plastics to go with yet, and the list goes on, ill keep posting updates as i make progress on it.
 
i dont plan on getting rid of the nerfs but if i do ill let you know.
But anyways i got my swingarm carrier and axle put together today, i sprayed the swingarm with spray on bedliner so it should be pretty durable, and i also put on powder coated black footpegs....its getting there I:I
