80w??? Good God... thats way too thick IMO. I bet that thing is a bear to start in the cold with that syrup in the crank case. I have been using valvoline ATV 10w/40 with great results. 2 or 3 bucks a quart.

Neither Yamaha or Clymer lists a compression number. 100 PSI and lower or a 10% difference between each jug you should do a top end rebuild. My banshee is a 2000 and has 130 PSI in each jug. 120 PSI and over is a good reading. Hope this helps.

I installed a tusk kit with the springs this summer and it is holding up well. So far so good.. Cant beat the price..

Honda trail 50 then traded it in on a brand new 1983 suzuki ALT 125 3 wheeler. First atv with reverse.

Anybody been checking out the auto auction? Some nice rides coming through there!!! If only I could have been born into the DuPont family or somthing...

F.U.B.A.R. (Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition) Old one I know...

I wonder if the warranty is an issue?

I have a Fujifilm FinePix 2650 2.0 megapixel. Not the best but it does what I need. I can tell you all that it is a durable little camera though!! Left it sitting on the six pack rack one day. Took off around the yard and the poor camera tumbled half way across my yard! I have dropped it on concrete along with numerous other "surfaces". Tough little bastard..

I agree... stupid post.. You said a stock 250r and a stock banshee...If the 250r has a pipe and bored 60 over and you have nitrous then neither of them are "technically" stock...Right? I raced a 250r with my shee last spring and all I had was a K&N filter. He had a pipe and filter and it was a tight race. Just because the 250 is 100cc and 1 jug less dont count it out.

You are a trip NYUK!!

Exaclty --Z400. You should have asked him why the "real quad" doesnt have grease fittings..LOL

All it takes is a little commen sence and some respect for other peoples property. You will grow up one of these days. You are lucky one of the mailboxes didnt come through the windshield. I saw on tv about a year ago where somebody hit a mailbox doing about 40-50 and the mailbox came right through the windshield and damn near killed the kid. That took balls to get on here and tell that story...

Very true. Thats about all I have.. Filter,Pipes. Thats why I want to do this now before it takes a complete shit on me. Was your engine running when you tore it apart? Mine is making a roaring noise. Been running it like that since I got it. Hasnt gotten any worse but I dont like it nevertheless. I think I will go on one more ride so I can burn this fresh tank of gas. I am scared that I will run into more problems.. I suffer from "big deal syndrome". In otherwords everything I ever try to do turns out to be a big deal.. I sure hope the shee has some sympothy on me...

They have to be better than what my shee came with. When I get my new tires I am gonna burn the stockers up on the road until they basically pop. Damn i hate these tires...

WOW $200? DAYUUM. That seems high to me. Of course I have never had it done so I really dont know. I sure hope I can get it done cheaper than that. Of course by the time I pay to ship this thing out and return shipping I might have that much into it myself. Thanks for the reply.

I put a new o-ring and lubed mine up at the begining of the summer and it is still rattle free. After a rebuild try spraying wd-40 on the o-ring every once and a while to keep it moist. You might also want to try a slightly thicker o-ring. Thats the only thing I can figure as to why mine has lasted so long.

After having a k&n for a while before I got a prefilter I have to say that I will never run without the outterwear again. I havent had to clean my K&N in a while now. Just pull the outterwear and shake it off. There is basically no loss of air flow. If it is you will never be able to tell.

Well I guess I have to send this crank out to have welded. I called the machine shop (only one in this area) and they had no idea what I was talking about. Anybody have suggestions of who to send it to when I get it out? Thanks

Shortys,Thats exactly what it sounds like. Growling. Ohhhhhh shit, I guess I better plan on taking this thing apart before it is too late. Will my local machine shop be able to do this or should I seek somebody who has experience with welding these cranks? Anything else I should do while I have her split open? I guess a top end is a must as well? damnit.....Oh well better that I find out now and do it before it is too late.

I guess I was a little slow tonight..

You God damn right....

cool

This really answers my questions... Thanks guys... Is this the blaster forum?? I guess I need a few more beers... Will be back in a bit..

OK...

Does the raptor and YFZ have fittings? AS many times as I have sat on them on the showroom I never even looked.
