Well the buggy's torn completely apart, stripped you might say.
Many upgrades before it's put back together. I noticed while
taking everything off that the rear cargo rack is heavy as a mo.
My welder friend is going to cut it in half for me. I should loose
about four or five pounds of dead weight in doing so. I've also
repainted the entire buggy from silver to black. That was fun.
Next is a 155 big bore, A10 cam, teflon variator, 10g sliders, new gates belt, prodigy clutch and bell, 30mm chrome intake and an 8 pole stator. Once all thats done we should be back in the buggy tearing up the town! Can't wait. I just decided, why not do all that I've been wanting to while I have the engine out. If I can get the proper cable for my camera I'll throw some pic's on here to show my progress.

Save yourself the hassle of the camera cable and having to install the camera software. Buy a USB memory card reader that will allow to pop the memory card from the camera into the PC like a floppy and allow to copy the files easily to your hard drive or access them directly from the card.

Yea Im excited about it Very Happy It may take me all summer to get
the money up for everything I want to do. But it will be worth
the wait for sure. Down here in Savannah I can ride throughout
the year, so that eases the pain of not riding for the next few
months. Besides, Im sure my better half can find plenty for me
to do around the house and yard Rolling Eyes

Yes, that is a different animal. If you have digital output from the camera, you will be using a Firewire or USB connection to pull in the video. If the video is an analog feed, you will need to have a video capture device connected to your PC that will convert it to digital.

tutoring Confused

MR,
You will realy like the performance gain from the mods you describe. I did pretty much the same to my old Talon gx and it was alot more fun to drive after the mods were done. Hang in there and save your money. It will be worth it in the end. Wink
