Time flies huh? Hard to believe it's been a year already :eek:

So,all is well.The G80 has performed just as it should and have had no probs or issues.I've been taking the Burb on a couple of nasty trails recently and have needed it on a few occasions.I've pulled my toy hauler also and had no problems.Not bad for a total cost of $80.00.

Re: G80 Swap One Year Update

When are gonna do yours Lee? :dunno::D

Not sure if I am. Thinking about selling it and finding something newer. But I might just keep it to. Who knows though. :lol:

Yeah,I know.......decisions,decisions :lol: I've been wanting a Burb '98 or newer so it can be tuned.Grumpy's would be a perfect candidate for modding but she won't let me touch it(only when it has a prob :().
