I don’t have a Farr kit but I mounted my electronics on a plate on the right/shifter side of the machine right lower corner of rollbar at base of head netting right behind the seat. Just made sense to my hack and wack mind. The wires originate from that side and the shorter the wires the lower the chance of pinch or other issue I figured. I also asked here before mounting if there would be an issue or feedback or other electrical intruption if they were mounted close together. Haven’t had one issue.
Hope this helps.

Nice. I like your idea. Seems like it’ll do the trick.

That damn thing looks mean. Between Farr, Meth and... We will need to be careful pulling up alongside of an Odyssey now. Pilot panels are going to be blown off. :-)

You can built that FL350 for less than or equal to the cost of a pilot. :-)

Possibly. I drove to NY for a 3500 dollar Pilot, so deals are out there. I think it's likely with modifications the 350r is a better performer when compared to a stock Pilot.

I spit the gear box to put the final output shaft in that’s required for the rear suspension but it wasn’t too bad

I’m coming along quite well. Started putting the rotax on/exhaust....etc...etc. it’s going to take time. I’m having trouble getting the exhaust to match up nice on the factory exhaust mounting areas on the frame.

Looks very nice. Is that a polished gear box I see there? I’m sure you have completed the exhaust install now but just in case... I believe there is an extended mount with vibration absorbing rubber that attaches the silencer to the frame. Best regards

Its how you hold your phone when you take a pic.
Mine does this as well.
You have to down load to your computer and flip it around. Re-post.

Definitely looking good.
I second the rubber mount for the exhaust. You do not want to solid mount it to the frame.
Off hand I know a 88 Suzuki LT500 quadzilla uses that type of Mount as I'm sure many others do. I only mentioned the LT500 so u could see what we're talking about.
Keep up the good work.

[attachment=0]574000D2-F9DD-46EC-8E88-308817805AC6.jpeg[/Well today I found out bad news. I’ve been trying to figure out where these 4 bigger sized bolts and nuts went on the bike. They would fit anywhere. Well I figured out that the shocks I purchased on eBay from “northbound29” that were listed as rear rzr900 shocks ended up being front shocks. So the bolts and trailing arms don’t fit right. I tried contacting the seller and he won’t respond after me investing 500$ in these shocks. I don’t know what to do

I wish people were just more honest on eBay. It’s been a few months since the purchase but took this long to realize the shocks were not the correct ones because it takes sometime receiving all farrs parts. Does anyone have any ideas? I would really appreciate the help.

Here’s my update on the bike. Haven’t seen anyone post a comment on my topic but I’m still here. If anyone has questions on farrs kits I would gladly help you to the best of my knowledge as I built hit kit.

No comments because the site is very very slow lately. Actually very slow for a long time now. I think everyone has just moved on and not many new members. This site might go away one day soon. Hope not.
There are a few interesting things on your machine that I like.
1) I like the gas tank :-)
2) I like how the rear shocks are mounted with bolt on frame bits -- not welded
3) I like how the rad is mounted with a bolt on type kit
Still needs: 1) the front plastic foot tub 2) Rear view mirrors or a backup camera type system with a screen you can see instead of mirrors -- just a thought I have had for a long time now.
Nice machine. Good job.

I have all electrical wires up and Engine turning over. No fuel in her yet. Waiting for a few parts. Throttle cable/carb throttle pin. Little bit of struggle on the rear brakes to be where I want them to be. Takes a lot of bleeding. Hoping the master can handle 4 brake calipers. All along it’s been a great build and I’m really excited to fire her up and enjoying riding.
