  1. how does it compare to the new 450s ?

    It has to be a serious big bore or john natalie's motor builder to even come close to me... I could holeshot the yfz 470's anyday of the week when it was stock....

     

    I'll take the 400ex geometry over the 450's anyday of the week also... It's just the motor is an out-dated slug.... That problem is fixed on mine :bolt: ....

  2. there are a few places that rebuild shocks.  TCS is who did mine.  And I love it.

     

    I had him service it for 100 bux....basically oil change....but well worth it.

     

    then the other day I had them rebuild mine.  440 was the ticket for a new rebuilt shock.

     

    look um up on the net

    What he said... there's also a guy that goes by shane on here.. apparently he does shocks and has already done some for the hq guys... good responses and if I remember right he's 100$ cheaper than tcs... don't hold me to it though...

  3. You can do it without lifting the bike with a flat head and a hammer.... What you'll want to do is back the top nut off about 3-4 threads... then spin the bottom one until it meets back up with the top one... then tighten the lock nut(top one) back down....

  4. Since you have stock goemetry it's even more impotant to stay on the throttle and over the ass end.... If you plan on going over 4ft with the stock shocks you better have a downgrade to land on....

  5. Yea, and LRD is the shit right?

     

    Mike, you sound like one grumpy dude. :shrugani:

    Me :blink::blink: ... naa man it's just every trinity bike i've ran across is slow as balls.... LRD can actually build a pretty fast bike from what i've heard... I've never rode/seen one though :confused: .... Trinity builds fast specialty bikes and house projects.. but the cronies that they got working on there regular motors suck... Grumpy :rotflmao: ... smartass well.. yeah :shrugani: ....

     

    Now that I think of it there is a guy on here.. goes by "." I'm 99% sure he has a lrd 'shee....

    Thomas Brown races a yfz450... I know he's not a pound over 130... You also see elkas and whatnot on the minis too...

  7. ya this is on my lonestar outlaw frame.......its the same damper that Denton use(NHK cartridge)but at 65$ each without clamp.....more durable than the rebuildable unit in my experience...... Pat.

    Thanks...

     

    thats badass and no way overkill.. just one doesnt seem to do much i have mine cranked all the way up and still isnt that great.  plus they usually get air pockets so turning one way is stiffer then the other. good idea :cheers:

  8. Check out this baby that was cought recently

      This Sturgeon was caught on the Fraser River just above the Mission

    bridge two weeks ago. It weighed out at over 1,000 lbs and measured out at

    11'1". It was 56" around the girth and took over 6 and a half hours and 4

    dozen

    beer for the 4 guys taking turns reeling. These guys couldn't be  from

    Wisconsin...Only 4 Dozen Beer ??

  9. The jam nuts at the end of the upper a-arms adjust the wheels like so: / \ and your tie-rod ends adjust which way the front wheel points....

     

    You have to take both of them out of the spindle (one at a time) to adjust them... and when you take the measurements have somebody close to your weight sitting on the machine...

     

    Edit: What kind of arms are these?

  10. The EVOLS aren't made for the Banshee, only the new 450's. They do have an application for the FLOAT AirShox for Banshees, but so far nobody has commented on how they perform. I did have 1 guy tell me they are the best shocks he's ever had on his Banshee, and he had Elkas and Works previously.

    It sure would be nice to have some people rate thier experience with them, even on a different machine.
