getting the +9 just cuz I can, and it's cheap....and as far as the tires, yeah, a bit over inflated, but, been riding on the street lately, so it's only wearing on the center treads, and yeah, not really liking the yellow, but, it is what it came with.....soon to change....as I posted, got the rears, now for the fronts....and back to the swing.....at least I'll have it if I wanna drag....if not, I'll put it on, see what it does/how it's handles, rides....and then take it back off for the stock. Just can't pass up for the price. Thanks to you " knuckle heads" you all got me started with this " Blaster war " with my neighbor.....who can out do who.....so far I'm winning.....until he pulls out his Banshee....then I pull out the Glock and shoot his jugs...J/K....you guys did get me infected though....loving it
 
His(neighbors) is on the right, mine is on the left.....this was taken like 2 weeks ago....so things have changed since then.....mostly on my end.....his still looks the same

I like it all black too.... he has my seat, tank and nose, I got all his black plastics....his has the purple fenders and had the black seat, tank cover, and nose....he wanted his all purple....so we swapped.....to each his own...

notice his still has the stock exhaust......that's where I got him....so far....he bored his out, and rebuilt the carb.....but that stocker is slowing him down bigtime.....it breathes deep, but can't exhale....
 
Won my bid on the +9 ....some guy tried to out bid me.....either way, figure it was worth the $152 I won the bid for, if I don't use it, sure I can get my money back plus some to go towards whatever else I want/need.....like some aluminum front rims....
 
**update**

I've since installed my front bumper(Tusk), and installed the Boysen Power Reeds.....and the new back wheels and tires....the +9 extension should be here this week....kinda " raced" my other neighbor who has a Polaris Scrambler 400 4x4......he got me on a rolling take off....only cuz I didn't know he was really going for it....caught him none-the-less....then BLASTED past him......if it was a REAL race, would have spanked him.
 
wow man! that swinger is huge!! hahaa looks good! great job with it so far!! i'd get a 400ex rear shock or something that will raise that off the ground a little so its not slanted, because that shock is little small for that swinger... but its ur choice, just my suggestion. good luck bro! great job!!!
 
Looks good man. I bet your neighbor is speechless.

Heh, more like jealous! I:I He keeps bugging me to trade him for his +6 he has on his Banshee, which I may consider after I ride it and see how good/bad it is. Got my new Cobra nerfs on, and haven't had a chance to ride yet cuz the weather up here in NWI has turned to sh*t....:(
