  1. You will need to adjust jetting, maybe just move the needles up/ but maybe jets as well. Do not run it lean!! or you will learn more about top end rebuilds than you want to. 99rr
  2. Let er warm up who care just start it up a little sooner. I block off the radiator 100% - it still never gets hot >160o . Minnesota 99rr
  3. I finally gave up on my AMP LINK ( worked good for MX) but now I just trail ride & they do rob power. Any way bought a TM design chain slider - had to remove pivot bolt to install. There was NO WAY it was comming apart ( sons Shee took 3 days and a sawz all 2 years ago to replace bearings). I was not about to go that deep so I Cut a slice in the new slider from the back so you can spread it open. and shaved the side just a little to clear the case where the front sprocket is. Heated it in boiling water and got it to fit just right pressing it over the front of the carrier. Removed it and counter sunk 2 holes with large sheet metal screws to hold the back together. Worked sweet and WAY WAY easier than removing the swing arm. They should build em that way. 99red_roostr.
  4. mine runs fine.
  5. I wouldn't plan on more than 35mile without a spare gas can. 99rr
  6. Mine never gets over 130 f , no matter what. I even block the rad 100% in winter (0 f outside) . 99rr
  7. My "ford" is a 4.0 @ 290hp (XK8)- 99rr
  8. You need wider A-Arms anyway ( increadable improvement in handling !!) and then the mud etc. is way out there!! Chop em. 99rr
  9. I LOVE Razr2's for the rear , best thing going.very very good hookup . For Snow & very nasty loose conditions ie : gravel pits, sand etc etc. I like PaddleMasters (indistructable). 99rr
  10. It smeels good! to the group riding behind you ( 4strks & hondas) so if you loose them they can find you! hahaha 99rr
  11. hahahah - do it in 6" of water and take a picture - no one will know its not deep!!! 99rr
  12. Ok another option : Gas not mixed = pouring spout backwards ( spout goes down into gas) with cap sealed Gas IS Mixed = cap'd with pouring spout is up ready to poor simple and it works - 99rr
  13. Vitos degree key +4 = $25 the way to go. 99rr
  14. Clean them when they are HOT!! it works much faster and better. 99rr
  15. Hahaha - I'm 52 and did MX last year on the Shee (old man class is 0ver 30!) - I will never sell it! 99red_roostr
  16. Running to lean is it.
  17. 1st mod = Teather Kill switch - you will fall off sooner or later , and it will keep going a while withoput you on it . It might hit something and cost plenty $$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$ $$$ $$$$$$. only$20 for safety!! 99red_roostr
  18. I love the Vetos SS pistons , pulls harder all the way around and revs much higher that stock. 2c 99rr
  19. As with most used GOOD toys, you will never get what its worth, keep it! and add to the pile. 99rr
  20. If you don't want a port job $$ the Vitos SuperStocks are a great improvement - don't forget to Jet UP!- 99red_roostr
  21. I passed on a 350 compition AC Cobra for $5,000. it was perfect ~ 1970 99red_roostr
  22. Proper level of antifreeze & up the jets/needle position - plug check!! 99rr
  23. 2c - usually -> if it sounds bad = its bad. 99rr
  24. My son has the triples with resy I have the bouble without resy. The triples have a soft part that soaks up slight bumps but at the cost of suspension travel. The doubles are just fine, slightly more bumpy with the small stuff, but much more forgiving in the rough stuff& corner better ( not mushy) . My son wishes he had the double - wants to trade - no way!! Get the doubles and save some $$ they work great. You really should get +2 A-Arms at the same time ( sorry for the extra $$ but its a HUGE difference and is well worth it) 99rr
  25. Put in a few hundred studs & it will work AND WEAR A HELMET !! 99RED_ROOSTR
