Hi guys, I spent a while reading the forum posts after finding links on the minibuggy forum and thought I'd join up since ya can only read minibuggy forum now.

Welder/fabricator by trade just been parts hunting for an offroader build.. purchased a 2014 CBR300r Engine to start from since I don't think we got any Odyssey or Pilot's here in New Zealand and I've never seen any used parts sold for them. Lots of motorbikes, quads and sidexsides to use for parts though, I have a parts catalog from "Hi Performance ATV" from the 1990's some guys might find pic's of interesting it lists Honda Pilot long travel suspension kits.

I pushed the register link on minibuggy and it just says registration has been disabled by administrator.

Yea I'll take more pic's from the catalog, looks like a rack conversion was used for the long travel kit. It's also got a reprint of a Dirtwheel magazine article about the kit. Not much info online about the company or info about this parts catalog.. thought this would be the place to archive it.

Not sure whats up with the sideways photo posting, this pic is how the steering rack was mounted clamp-on style.

Better photo of the front view, we know the size of the tires and the kits +6" to overall width and 12.5" wheel travel this could be used to scale off the photo to get A-arm lengths. Date stamp on the photo is interesting.. 1992 and the dirt wheels article is August 1993.

And this is the offroader I brought the blueprint plans for its suspension geometry, 4-link rear plus the axle as 5th link it seems powered by 90's era 1000cc+ street bike engines.

I would contact the administrator. Sounds like you may have accidentally been banned or something. There should be a “contact us” button, probably at the bottom of the page.

I already let him know you had an issue, but I didn’t know your screen name there. I’ll let him know what happened when you clicked the register link, maybe it’s a site issue, there hasn’t been hardly any traffic there for the last week.

He said he has registration turned off because of all the spam and bots. If you want to, you can e-mail him. He said he will sign you up rwkosar@gmail.com

Thanks liduno for the email contact, thought it would be to stop the bots and spammers. I read all I could find about the Briggsbuilt cars on minibuggy it would be helpful to join the forum.

I have seen a buggy in one of the fb groups that has that kit on it. Pretty cool to actually see some info on it. I had to contact the site administrator to get on mini buggy awhile back, same reason the spam is terrible now and he wants to make sure you live and breathe before he approves. Really good site as I found parts for a transmission from a 6 year old thread.

Yea its an interesting long travel kit, I've had this Hi-Performance Atv catalog for over a year, finding this forum made me look back through it.. I knew of the fl350 Odyssey didn't know Honda made a better one fl400. Theres also a few pages on their 3-wheeler to 4-wheelers conversion kits.

I'll add more pics from the catalog about the LT kit.
