    Man! Watching this LTZ400 series really takes me to year 2005 when i sat on one yellow LTZ400 and few months later my dad bought me one! To this day i still have it and ride it, but everything is aftermarket now and I can hard remember the OEM look! But looking at your build REALLY takes me back to the beautiful old days ! Of course I adore the way my Z400 now rides (434 big bore, FCR 41MM carb, fox air shocks and +3 a arms and suspension - dunes eating machine) but that OEM look and feel is priceless!!👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🔥💯 Keep it up mate!

The whole time I was like What in the hell is this riff from!!!” I even showed it to my sister who is a huge metal head and she didn’t know. Turns out it was one of the songs played in your videos. Specifically the quadzilla full assembly video. Makes sense because it’s my favorite series of yours.
