  1. Check the simple stuff like the tube is between the carbs for the choke circuit. Check and make sure you didn't bind the throttle cable at the Y . Gas is on If you took the slides out, make sure you put them in the right carb.
  2. Okay, things are looking a little better from me. I need a place to stay though. I'd really like to find a shower while I was there. It would really suck to not have a shower. I know boon is still trying to figure things out. There's a lot of guys out east that are trying to go. For you guys out east, I live 10min off a toll road exist in indiana. The people from this area could meet here. You could drop off little trailers if someone wants to bring big trailers or whatever. We could meet, car pool from here. Whatever. Like I said. I need to get some paddles and a place to stay.
  3. Mines around $50 a year... minus personal injury. I'll use my works insurance for that. Theft up to 6500. It was 90 with personal injury
  4. I hate good music that's recorded shitty. Just ticks me off. I know everyone listens to different music, but one of the cleanest recordings I hear... of popular music... is Alan Jackson. Man, that is some clean sounding music. You don't have to like the music to hear the quality.
  5. get a hold of mrmatt. He does a nice job cutting them. Made one hell of a jig. He may have some ready to go.
  6. I've done this and i get oil on the front of the quad through the overflow. Only when I ride whoops really bad though.
  7. Yes. The 795 series piston is offset for the difference in rod length. The spacer plate is used to make up the difference in 2mm stroke each direction... at least on a 4mm. I had the head cut and cylinder ported so I didn't need a spacer plate. Port timing should be modified for the extra stroke. It will not be the same. If you added all the 4mm parts and didn't have the porting done for it, start there.
  8. Have you done anything like a head mod. I'm thinking it's just the sound of the pipes too, but if you changed the compression or something, you motor may be pre-igniting. Did you rejet for your new pipe?
  9. Wow, with drag porting, cpi inframes, winter and 4mm, I'd start at a 390. I started at a 390 with mine and it's rich in top but doesn't run to bad. I haven't had a chance to jet it in all the way. I also use a 27.5 pilot. Idles perfect with great response.
  10. I've been reading about this supermoto. I noticed they are going to show it on oln. I came across a web page that you can click on the links and get video clip of it. What do you know, McGrath is giving it a try. http://redbullcopilot.com/
  11. Me either. I cut the plugs off to and didn't have any trouble. You must have cut or disconnected something not related with the tors. Were you working on anything else? Carbs maybe.
  12. Let the fun begin. Congrats man!! I have 3 and they are the best thing in the world.
  13. Yeah, I don't see many people making glass out there by not having sparkys
  14. Damn, , that guy can build some shiznet. What welds is right. Nice job quicksand motorsports. Look at those swingarms. Jim, maybe you and this guy should hook up. Full out performance shop !!!!!!
  15. Two strokes are different from 4 strokes. I'm chiming in because no shops have and it'll get this moved to the top. If you look how a two stroke works, the fuel mixture comes from the carbs to the intakes.... from the intake to the crank to lube it ... to the transfers and to the top of the piston. When a two stroke blows... it blows. If a crank bearing breaks, it usually take the bore, cylinder and head with it. If a piston skirt goes, it usually take the bore, head, and either takes the crank or gets if full of debris. This is why it its recommended to change your pistons before they make you change them. Check out this link to see the 2 strokes. Here's a pic.
  16. Have you looked in the peddlers post.
  17. Be cool if they made that into a black light poster
  18. 16 bids on that thing. Lmao What are you doing looking at body bags anyway.
  19. In the sring, I'd start with 330 or 320's. The warmer it its, the smaller you go. The air is less dense. This is a starting point of course.
  20. I think my dealer charged more around 11 or 12 for that stupid thing. It's ridiculous.
  21. Meat, I see why you don't want to fork up the time and $$ to go to dumont. You have a lot of riding near your place. I may have to take you up on that grand tour thing this spring or summer.
  22. Thats why you shouldnt get a 20" tire Okay, good reasoning
  23. damn, bet you didn't think you're question would lead to this.
  24. I'm not sure I'm going yet. Just letting you know that before you post my name.... unless you backing me into the sandbox corner
