    Sweet, I was hoping someone would catch on and do an ATV. I was thinking of doing my Polaris Sawtooth, but I dont have the "Blender" skills. Looks good so far and I really hope you can finish this.

    Re: Update:[2/3] 2014 Honda TRX450R

    New update: The subframe is almost finished. Next will be the swingarm :).. Got some really good pictures of the swing arms so it should be as accurate as i can make.

    Of course you will be able to easily change the color of the frame :p

    Re: Update:[2/7] Creating the Brake Calibers - 2014 Honda TRX450R

    Workin on some things right now! The brake calibers are almost finished, after that I'm going to do the rear wheelie bar then move to the front for of the fourwheeler where ill probably discover lots of inaccurate things that ill need to fix.

    There the rear caliber is finished, not perfect but better then a chunk out of a circle.

    This is just to give the rear end some decent looks so it doesnt look too crappily put together, i couldve spend 5 more hours and made it perfect but zero need.

    Thanks man, From my comparisons there a lot differences in the frame work between the 400 and 450 though.

    Ahh, well good luck, sucks that I cant give you good reference stuff. Cant wait to use it. Also: Will there be a model of a person riding the vehicle? Will it just be the quad with no one inside like the cars? Will the person's weight be calculated if they are on it? (Or if there aint a person but you want it to feel more realistic as to riding one would it be calculated anyways?) Lastly, if there is a person will it be removable as a part?

    Discussed with drowsy about having rider weights on the seat so we could simulate like different weights. Like 100lbs 150lbs 200lbs ya know.
