  1. To tell you the truth, I had the same opinions as you. I think Ohton, tyson and a few others are good too. What I really wanted was to clear my opinion on you. Sorry, but at first I wasn't sure if you were just another builder trying to make a buck on this site. Sorry about the wrong opinion. You have helped tremendously without selling yourself and everyone appreciates that. Keep it up. Everyone see's what your doing and it's good. Again, sorry for creating a biased opinion without knowing who you are, but we've seen a lot of poeple come through here just trying to sell themselves. I'm glad to see you're here to help others. Thanks for such an honest answer.
  2. There you go. It does get there pretty quick too!!!!
  3. I just checked, 23 hrs left and only 13 are bid on. You don't need to worry about getting one.
  4. You bid and when the auctions over, they'll give you the paypal info. They won't be gone if he doesn't sell all 80. If he does just bid like 15.01 or something to be higher than 1 of the 80 people.
  5. Just wondering... besides yourself, what builders do you think are good, knowledgable builders. All grudges aside. Thanks

    4mm Stroke.

    I haven't heard the same things you've heard. Sorry.
  7. Oilsmoke, I was thinking the same thing unless he is talking about to correct an already ported motor. A 4mm stroker does not need long rods. Dan at patriot racing doesn't use long rods until 7mm. They do relieve some of the stress, but a 4mm with stock rod length may yeild a little more power.
  8. I bought mine from the previous auction from what I posted. I seen the auction 10min before it ended. Then I looked to see what else the guy was selling and seen he had more of the same so I posted it. Man does it shine.
  9. I'm wanting the word fox with the fox in the center for the back window of my truck. I haven't bought one from this guy yet, so if it's possible, let me know what you can do. I'm sure others would like to know what you can do too!!!!!
  10. The 450's are around 6700 I think. As far as clothing, it's up to you. A lot of people just buy the basics like helmet, gloves and some safety gear. Then they just wear jeans to ride. Others like to wear the full gear. As far a quality of riding gear... it's all pretty close to the same. Mostly loyalty to a brand and looks.
  11. They're fine as long as they are within 10%.

    4mm Stroke.

    Man I here ya. Mine twin girls are 7 and my son is 10.
  13. I saved that one from the other forum NYUK... hahaha. I think the delay was to make it fair from other runs. Makes it a fair race... like a handicap.

    4mm Stroke.

    I spanked my kids a few time but I don't need to anymore. They are really good kids. When they are bad, I make them stand in the middle of the room with there arms in the air. 5 or 10 min and they'd rather be spanked.
  15. Well, Mine showed up today. It's not something you want to add if you're trying to make it lighter. It's quite heavy but very very shiny Here's before and after.
  16. I will. He'll have the chrome in next week he says. I'm putting that on my black ford supercrew.
  17. Holy POOP..he he ... Shift, are you in valpo. Where do they have those races. Please fill me in.
  18. I don't think NYUK would get on your dick
  19. You'll really have to let us know what type of riding he does to help you decide. I really believe the new yamaha 450 is one of the best all around quads there is right now.... stock for stock. But, they aren't cheap. Maybe you have a budget that we could also go by. By the way, welcome.
  20. How in the heck did you get the cylinder to hold compression? The gauges are made to not let air back out anyway. I'm a little confused on that one led.. Well, if you compression is low and you put oil in it and the compression becomes a normal number then your rings are the problem. As far as the oil, it's probably best to use whatever you run with your fuel.
  21. I'll thinking the opposite boonman. Holding the throttle open with such little air flow (not running just kicking it over) doens't allow as much fuel to flow. There is less vacuum when you hold the throttle open. It also allows more air to compress. To test your rings, do the test cold. Take your reading. Then put a table spoon of oil in the cylinder through the spark plug hole and test again. If there is a significant increase in compression, you need to fix the problem.
  22. I may be heading to the badlands, but not sure. Are you postive you're going to haspin?

    4mm Stroke.

    Andy's engines do haul ass, your bike should scream Rod, sounds like as your budget allows you'll be goin faster and faster, im lucky enough to have my wife stay home with my varmits as well, id rather have a 70hp shee and good children than 90hp and paying someone to raise them for me, and on behalf of your wife ill bet she's workin her ass off just not gettin paid, my wife went to visit relatives for a week once leaving me to take care of the kids, i couldnt wait to go back to work!!............ You're damn skippy. I watched the kids while she went to New York for a week... Damn, it's rough. And, what you said about someone else raising the kids.... You better believe it. That's why we worked it out the way it is. I make decent money so it works out.

    4mm Stroke.

    Well, Andy says his motor will put out 82-85 with the right carbs, pipes etc. I am gettting the pro port he offers. I am taming is also...., for money reasons mostly. I have fmf fatties and 28mm flatslide carbs. He says although the top end won't be maxed, the throttle response should be kick ass. I'm also adding delta force reads and taking out my ported cages (again for throttle response). Andy's motors also win trophys so I confident it will run. Also, I wish I had the $$$ to do a turn key, but I'm going out on a limb just spending what I am... with christmas and all. I have 3 little ones and my wife doesn't work... just me . So, even though I just sent my head and cylinders, I'm hoping for the same results. Have fun duece. Let us know what you think.
