A few months back I purchased a Yamaha Rhino( the magnum milktruck) with a ton of plans for it. I have been working on it here and their on the weekends since I have school on the weekdays and I am finally getting some process done on it. Decided I would share some of the pictures with you guys in case some of you are interested. So far I un-assembled literally everything I could. A lot of the parts that were on it would be useless to me so I have pretty much sold most of the drive train. It had a built 686 in it that I sold a little while back and basically everything else has went down the road since then. Luckily It has the Gear One rear hub and brake kit so I am hoping to run that with the Busa engine as long as possible. From what I've read I think ill be okay but in the future I may go to the Weller rear hubs if it becomes a problem. I picked up a 2012 Hayabusa engine about a week ago and have been rounding up all the parts I need for that. I don't plan on going with a reverse box for now. I know it would be nice to have but I am trying to spare some expense of this build. I purchased most of the Weller rear end kit and plan on running that for the time being. I have decided to move the rear axle/ a arm mounting cage back about 6 inches to help with stability as well as looks. It just seemed to me that the rear tires looked to far forward on the machine. So far I have it all stripped down to bare metal and am working on moving the rear end back/ mounting the weller rear stuff. I have an idea how the engine mounts are going to work and hope to start on that this weekend. I made some light bar mounts and have those welded on. Anyways though here are some pictures. This is my first time building anything of this magnitude so any "helpful" comments are welcome.
