My Grandson Ben and I started assembling the Dirt Squirt today. We installed the rear shocks and front forks. I won’t go into too much detail. I will save that for the Resonator Revisited. Next session will be installing the fork brace, fenders and handle bars.

Ah, good to see the project is still active. What a great learning experience!

Nice lookin' young fella ..... is there a kid on the planet that wouldn't want to do what he's doing ... working on Grampa's Dirt Squirt?

Just to be clear. This is Ben's Dirt Squirt, not mine. He would be too short to ride it is it was completed by end of summer. However, he will be able to ride his Nana's Dirt Squirt now, since I put a "Tiger Industries" lowering kit on it. Maybe the last one on the planet. Ha!. By the way, Nana is only 4' 10" tall.

Looks like the best kind of fun. Tiger industries also made a rake plate for the ace90. -------Clarence

Um, Clarence... just what does (did?) a rake plate do?

Price $12.45 The buggers stole the one I raced with. It was sold by Tiger Distributing Company Glendale California. The expansion chamber sold for $24.95. The rake plate was stamped Tiger on the under side. Just trivia------------Clarence
