Hey Muds, I'm up in Fort Wayne, but most of the guys I ride with are in Anderson and Indy. You'll have to get hooked up with us when you are ready to try Haspin Acres. Its only about an hour drive from Indy. But I am affraid of letting you take that buggy in those ticght woods. She won't be near as pretty after a few trees. :shock:

Oh and p.s.
If you like your windshield make it removable and dont take it in the woods. Mine was spidered on the forst trip by a rock. Plus they really suck at night in the woods.

HI i used to go to haspin all the time with my 4 wheeler! i havent been there in a few years as i am sure its changed a lot, i think the terrain at haspin changes on a weekly basis :lol: i plan on taking it there we will meet up sometimes and do some riding :D need to get a floor in my trailer first though :cry: the guy mentioned his windshield getting cracked first time out :?: was you using glass or lexan :?: mine is lexan so it suppossed to take a lot of impact :?: but it does scratch easy though! i use mothers aluminum polish to keep my windshield nice and shiny this stuff works great on plastic! removes light scratches also i use it on my car and truck headlights too makes them like new again! thanks for the compliments, i been about 3 years on this thing, work a while then take a break this thing is great cruising the streets when some of the newness wears off i am going to get her dirty like what she was built for :lol:

Mine was Auto Glass. But once its dirty and lights hit the back you are half blind :shock: I'd still make it removable for night riding at least. And pull the fuse on the wipers that it looks like you have to avoid temptation if you leave it on. :mrgreen: I've been playing around with a partial windshield like a stadium race truck uses, seems to work good at blocking some and allowing good visability. Just at the R&D fases tho, lol.

Looks like a very nice street machine. Keep it the way it is and build your self a Woodsbuggy. That way you have the best of both worlds. :mrgreen:
