When I tried the 13 toother, she fit fine, same with the 15 I'm running now.

F'ing awesome. Just let me know as soon as you have the cost and how you want it. Scott Redish 34673 US Hwy 82 Whitesboro, TX 76273

Hell yeah, I'll take it. Don't even worry about covering the holes, I'll take care of that. Let me know what you want, and I'll shoot if over pronto. Scott

Glad they were able to help you. Let us know how it ends up. That pipe help your power quite a bit? I have Suzuki 500 4x4 that I've been wanting to put an FMF Megamax on, but have been apprehensive on the jetting aspect. Don't really feel like f'ing with it. Later.

i'm guessing it's a furked wheel or it's not bolted on right, could be a spindle too though. take a vid and send it to us before you fix it.

Well, thanks for looking guys. Don't really wanna run a clamp-on on my single carb because of gettin muddy and in the water some. We'll see. Thanks again fellas.

I agree. With most drag pipes, you'll need a lot of flow. A set of T5's will probably be a much better suitor with a pretty much stock setup.

90% of 2-1 carb power issues is due to that one thing, jetting. They're faster to jet, but not necessarily easier and a jetting change in one carb is affecting two cylinders, so it gets kinda picky sometimes. You should have some good top end, maybe not quadzilla top, but good top.

Just talk to your powdercoater and let him tell you what he feels is best. Afterall, if he tells you no you don't need it, then it's his ass when it flakes off.

If, dammit, I mean when I come, I'll bring the keg. How ya'll like that!! I figure if I bring the beer, then Led won't blow me off like he did the last time.

I would NEVER just jet based off of what the mfg. says. They give a very general jetting for a guide, but 90% of the time it's not where it should be. I ran 310 to 320 main jets in my banshee with the lid on but the back 2 inches was cut off, 300 to 310 with the full lid. Also, Fatties don't generally like a pilot richer than 30. 25 or 27.5 should do it. If I would have taken the mfg. suggestions and kept them there, I'm sure I would have blown a piston. They have no clue what else you have. Also, as Banchetta has proven. You can take the same machine, with pipes, reeds, etc. and go from the east coast to the west coast, same elevation and have a 2 or 3 size jetting change, so there is alot more to it than just elevation also. If you have no clue where to start, using the mfg. as a suggested baseline is ok, i guess, but always run plug checks and richen if ever in doubt. In fact, if I was clueless, I'd take the mfg suggestions and add 2 or 3 more sizes to it before I ever put it in my machine. All in all, 90% of the time, the manufacturers are clueless. slowpokebanshee, that's not directed at you, i just wanted to clarify my opinion on this. i meant to earlier and forgot, and your comment reminded me.

i know all about those pipes, and they are not the right pipes for you if you do 50% dune riding. If it's 90% dune riding, they're definitely not for you. Go with the fatties, and as I'm sure you know, fmf doesn't make a 2 into 1. The fatties will get you plenty of the low your looking for and be one helluva duner also.

No offense holyman, but this thread belongs in the girls forum.

c'mon people, i know they're out there!!

why ask why??? do they still make Bud Dry?

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin about!! Just marked it on my calendar, come hell or high water, or even divorce, I'm there!

maybe it's the pistons...

why didn't they put nicer shocks? why didn't they put electric start? why didn't they put a wider chassis? why didn't they put on powervalves? why didn't they put on more aggressive tires? why didn't they make a better air intake? why why why

as small as possible. 10 over is plenty unless you have scuff marks to get rid of. boring does nothing for performance so there is no need to bigger for extra power. just go as small as possible and this will ensure that you will have room for future top ends as well.

ya think?

Well, I wouldn't worry too much yet. The T5's may respond a little better, but I'm sure yours will respond fairly well also. I'd get the porting you want done. Then, after seeing how they respond, you don't feel they're all they should be, then start trying to sell and swap. You have the T6's now, so I'd see how they do first before you go to the trouble, you might end up loving them even more.

Well, it sounds like your possibly lean. If I'm confused, and it does get confusing, and I'm unsure if I'm lean or rich, then I'll go up and get it too rich and back it off. Make sense? Like I said, I don't think you should be that high, so maybe there's an air leak, but it does sound lean to me. Also, my machine is not too rich, in fact, I'd like to put a little more fuel to it, and I have black oil/fuel on the silencers, always do and always will I suppose. In fact, I have to be careful lifting the rear or I'll get an oil ring on each pant leg. But I like it, am I weird for that?

I guess no one here really knows much about that machine. I sure as hell don't, wish I could help you though. You might try ATV Connection - Yamaha. That Yamaha section covers all the machines and they might have more info for you. Try searching also. Scott
