What brake pedal tip is that?
It’s a brand called Clean Speed. I want to say it cost about 20 bucks and it included new hardware.

Looks good. Might give one a try.

Did you use the same process as the bolts for the radiators?

No. On the radiators I started with 500 grit sand paper and worked my way up to 2000 grit. It was all by hand.

I picked up a set of new ProTaper Factory Suzuki team issue handlebars and a new factory P3 team issued glide plate with engine guards. Some really cool parts.






I am about to buy a skid plate for my 2020 FX 350, was it worth the extra coin for the factory edition from P3? I was pretty sold on the pro carbon but yours looks awesome.

To answer your question I picked mine up from another member here for a pretty good price. So no I wouldn’t pay any more to have the team issue part vs what your already looking at. I just got lucky honestly.

I did check out the link you posted and the pro carbon plate looks super nice as well. They make some cool stuff and I would pick one of those up in a heartbeat.

Thank you! $370 for a skid plate is no joke.
I have got very lucky/blessed buying awesome parts from Vital members as well.
I will be going back to my original plan and purchase the pro carbon.
Incredible build, your polish skills are instance and thank you for your time.

Thank you! I dig your husky as well. Your shock spring has inspired me to do something similar on mine in the near future!

How's the bike Jwack?
I like this 350 a lot more than the 2016 I had. It’s a fantastic bike.

It did give me a good scare though. During the second Moto on the first lap I was on a fast straight approaching a jump and the bike just died. I’m talking wide open to absolutely nothing. I have never had a bike do that. I came to a stop and checked gas and the electrical connections I could see. Didn’t find anything. Tank had gas and nothing else was obviously wrong. Bike fired up and didn’t have an issue for the rest of the race. Although I rode extremely careful as I didn’t trust it. I tore the bike apart later and found nothing.

That being said I can’t take the risk of a bike failure like that. I lost trust in it. If I had been on the face of the jump I was about to hit it would have ended very very bad. I had a huge crash in 2018 and spent months injured with a broken back and pelvis. That’s no fun and not what I want to do again Lol.

So I bought a

I’m going to transfer all my good parts to it and go hit the 2stroke nationals in a few weeks.

That could’ve been bad! Looks like you got the right end of the deal though! Bet you’ll have a lot of fun on that one! Just was out playing in the sand on mine last weekend.
