CP’s Talon Rebuild

[CumminsPusher]

Don’t think this’ll come as a surprise to those that know me but the day has come. ‘21 Talon X Live, even the colors I wanted. This thread starts off a little different though, as I’ve said my plan was to buy a totaled unit. I’ll rebuild yet another Honda but this time by choice, it’ll be fun this time

Today was crap trying to get just 350 miles. Cascade mountains didn’t want us to get across, bad snow storm hit and closed pass after pass trying to get across, finally had to turn around, bummed. Then @popeye who lives that way jumped in looked it over, FaceTimed me and currently on his trailer headed to his house. I can’t thank him enough for heading into the snowstorm and dealing with this order. It wouldn’t still be there by time can get back. Thank you!!!
Guys it’s time after all these years, it’s real!🤗🤗

Wow! That will be a lot of work but a lot of fun it you like "turning a wrench". Any idea if the frame will need to be realigned?

Won’t be bad. Located a section for frame, sounds like it might need light pull on frame rack, suspension tab reinforced then bolt on parts.

One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. Was torn down and shows better pics of damage. Ya I know it’s not everyone’s choice but it was my only possible one, going to take a minute to get parts now but got 3 months to get them bought before riding season

Any idea on the story?

You weren’t keeping the cage stock anyway. Probably won’t feel as bad cutting up a bent one.

Cage is good. It’ll stay for a minute

None. Popeye says not even scratches on skids so he says it’s a dunes princess. Took wallop across drivers side, maybe got hit by another one out there? He might have better idea.

I had story but I erased. You already know it with Pioneer, was a damn long one. I’m excited and got a new breath to start this game over.
