directions, what directions... i got it used.... hehe
-
95 stock, maybe 110 with pipes...
-
Anytime... hope it works out.
-
I hope not. I have a 200w stator on my bike and I just recently installed the Dyna. I've been running it for maybe 5 hours.

They were like $75 a tire if I remember right, kinda pricey but worth it to me so far. We'll see how they wear. I got them from RockyMountainATV.com and you can find them on your website.

Can't we all just get along???
-
There's a member who is considering letting me pay for the shipping to me so I can try them out and see for sure before I buy a set. If I decide to get a set, I might buy a new set that way I have a pristine set. I also know a few members who would be willing to trade me. We'll see. Like I said before, it's not like I don't like my PT's, there's just a few things that I'm unsure about.

Keep the stock needles in, the toomey, aka Blaster, needles seem to be problematic when jetting. Your mains could be from 280 to 310 depending on other mods and elevation and such.

Tithead has one I believe. I've heard a lot of positivie things about them. I also believe that the G Force is owned by Tusk.

You don't need the flywheel. If you buy they're stuff, just get a stator and a plate.

Here is a short review found on Quadzone.com posted by Quadzone administrator "Rico", and GNCC #313.

I went from Razr rears to the I-Razr rears and I can say, I've found my new tire. I bought these tires a few months ago, before I ever found this site. I was looking for something new at the time and stumbled upon these. As Rico said, I've never ran a set of tires with as much bite as these do. With the power that the banshee can put out, it's hard to find a tire that doesn't excessively spin. Keeping the front end down on starts is more difficult and I experience the pushing in the corners much more frequently, but as said, that can be dealt with using more weight positioning. The beauty of these tires is how, when they hook up so unbelievably well, they still are extremely predictable in the corners and slide at will, but not excessively, and allow you to power out of a corner much stronger. They hook up much better than my standard Razrs in loose soil. The Razrs tend to spin excessively in looser soil, with my quad anyway and these tires shine more as the ground gets looser. I raced in a local TX XC race a few weeks back that would've been better suited as a mudfest. The tires performed admirably. They never lost bite and forward motion over muddy stumps, roots and ruts that would've been more difficult on my previous tires. Overall, I'm extremely impressed with this tire. As I said, I've found my new tire. I don't have the money to keep a lot of different sets mounted up and ready to go, so I need a tire that's not going to let me down and handle all situations. The I-Razr does just that and more.

Sunoco is the shit. I personally run Sunoco GT Plus. It's 104 octane with 4.5% oxygen for a little added boost.

I haven't really read any of the post above, too damn long, but I'll give my input on the "big three" based on my little knowledge in the XC rink. The big three out right now: Z400, TRX450R, YFZ450. No doubt to me that the YFZ is fast. However, it does have some pretty tough suspension, I've ridden theYFZ some and they seem pretty stiff and awfully twitchy to me in the environment I ride in. I'm sure this can be dialed out though. I haven't ridden a 450R but I've heard the motor is a lot smoother and the suspension is a lot more plush, and well suited for XC. The Z is supposed to handle about the best. It's definitely not the fastest, but it can be pretty quick. In XC, the fastest is not always the best. Handling and suspension are way more important factors. It seems that everyone has their "definition" of what's best. With some, it's all out top speed, others it may be quickness off the line and some, merely looks. I personally think all three are of really high quality. If I was to buy a new quad, it'd be a hard decision but it'd be between a 450R and a Z, but I lean towards teh Z. If I found a YFZ for the right price I wouldn't hesitate either. The Z can be pretty quick and they handle really well. With a Yosh kit, you can get them to pull 48/49hp. I'm hoping they come out with a Z450 before too long and that'll be the ultimate quad for me. I don't care about top end speed, although it's nice in some instances. In XC, a modded 400ex can be just as competitive as the new big boys. So, remember everyone, to each is his own. There's a machine out there for everyone, and everyone's needs are different. That's partly what's so great about today rather than 10 years ago. We have choices now, and we didn't before.

...and I'm the daddy of the banshee.

Dammit. I have a pair of rear Douglas .190's, not fronts tho. Doh!
-
Yes, I'm extremely interested. Whatchu want for em if I was to buy them outright?? I'm thinking about what I may have. I have some 10" .190 Douglas wheels, perfect for some paddles. In fact I have a rear set of paddles. I also have some front spindles. I have a stock CDI in perfect shape. Hmmm, lemme think more...

I've had Fatties and loved them. Only thing, the PT's have more low end and that's really beneficial in the woods and xc racing I'm involved with. I was hoping to get close to the same amount of low end with the Gnarlies and maybe a tad more top, but dunno.
-
Hell, I've found the best way to really let 'er breathe is to pull the airbox and the filter all together. Just open that carb. Man, she really buzzes that way. Although, I got this funny noise coming from the top of the motor, can't figure out what it is....

In regards to the DNF, I initially thought it was because of the spark plug boots getting drenched. Today, I was resetting my timing plate back to 0 so I could run the Dyna ignition I just put on. When I pulled the stator cover, about a pint of water came out. So, I pulled the stator and looked at everything. My "red" wire off the stator was black in spots and had burnt through the lining. It was grounding out and causing problems, mostly because of the water. So, I think there was more to my DNF than I had first thought. Also, my lights hadn't been working and I wasn't sure why, hadn't looked, but one of the lighting coil wires had popped off and was shorting out. So, a nice big potential problem I found. I think it's still okay and need to clean and resolder some of the wires, but could've been real bad, maybe even close to causing a fire. Once I get that dealt with, I need to figure out why my Cascade cover is leaking. POS I guess, may end up selling that thing and going back to stock or something.

Yes, or chop the back 2" off like I did. Works great, more air and still good protection.

I'm running my PT Mids right now, but I think I'm gonna buy a set of Gnarlies and try them out. Not that I don't like my PT's but I'm really not happy with the finish on them and I miss my chrome. I'll probably keep them and get some dyno runs with the both for comparison. Just thought I'd let you all know. BTW, anyone know how the top end and bottom end compare on the two? Never ridden a set of Gnarlies. And a little somethin for all you freaks....
-
Bastard! I was supposed to get my 4+1 Baja's today, but they didn't make it...

Steel wool can often take care of rust. If it's real bad, get some 00 wool and then rub it down, then get 0000 wool to smooth them out. Chroming costs are a lot different in various parts of the country. Here, maybe $100 to 150, other places, maybe up to $200, and that would probably include the sand blasting. Ceramic coating is another option, and Jet-Hot would do it for maybe $150.
