And bc im not a dirtbag.... I had this buggy built by a man named Glen Taylor who owns GT Racing in Livingston TN. By no means do I take credit for any of the build. I will post a video and better pics if it will let me

We took off the new front shocks and went back to the factory longer traveling shocks. I will eventually go with stiffer back shocks as well over the quad set up currently on the "death rocket"

Time has come little boys and girls. Having some issues with the battery not charging but I was able to go for a test ride... This beast does not disappoint.

It's a Tomberlin. I am building one now. Pics below

Update Basket relocation, tank install..

New front end components installed

We took a little time off from the project to focus on..... life. This week we are back on the grind. Pictures and details soon.

Thanks. That's a good question. I am quite certain the position of the axle changed. I will run that by the guys at the shop to see what they say. Personally i dont know of any adjustments to accomodate thus far.

Thanks guys. The holidays will likely slow up the build just a hair, but I will continue to post till the build is complete.

With the motor almost ready to re-mount... it was time to do away with the old factory shocks and stock gas tank. We ended up going with (4) 15" motorcycle shocks in the back and 2 up front. The front shocks were originally 18" so I had to get an extender to make up for that extra 3" if I...

I wasnt sure what to expect for tree bars, but they came out good and will hopefully serve a purpose. The guys at GT Racing also got creative with the re-sizable battery tray.

Once we had the proper mount position we took the motor back off and then added some new shoes. We added 2" spacers to the front to keep from rubbing. And 1.5" to the back to change the lug pattern to match the front. Originally it had 22s on the back and 19s on the front (4x137 on the rear and...

The basket caused some slight issues with the exhaust when the shocks were at full compression. For now the exhaust is pointed down to keep from hitting the basket at full press. Relocation of the basket may change that. They also went ahead and welded a winch plate on the back swing arm to...

Next, it was time to start trying to fit the motor to the swing-arm. With that came more fabrication. We extended the swing arm 6 more inches to make room for the motor.

When we pulled the motor the carbs needed some attention and the exhaust had some bad spots on it that were not repairable as well. We ended up getting some pipes off Ebay for cheap. After we flipped them up side down and did a lil fabricating, it came out alright. My neighbors should love it.

I don't have the space or the tools to even attempt to do the build myself. But I do have a good friend that owns GT Racing in Livingston TN. He's rebuilt a few dirt bikes and ATVs for me, and is one of the best in the business. So me and some buddies took a road trip. I have some other projects...

Getting the bike in and out of my truck was the fun part. My truck had a 6" lift at the time. So I drove to the nearby school and backed up to a hill to use it like a ramp. Needless to say that was a disaster. Then we pulled the bike behind my 4wheeler for about a mile (with no brakes) back to...

I gave up my xr100 dirtbike for 3 buggies (2 tomberlins and 1 off brand). A good friend of mine is building the other Tomberlin although his build went in the opposite direction.

New guy here. This is a project I have been working on for almost a year now. It's a Tomberlin Crossfire 150cc frame and a 82 (I think) Suzuki GS 550 motorcycle. The buggy I got from a trade deal. The engine would barely turn over. I didn't want to invest money back into the stock 150 motor so...
