Whatever man, you keep on thinking like you do...maybe one day you'll realize not everyone is out to be the fastest bike in St Joe state park People's cocky ass attitudes like yours and crazy c's are what's gonna make me get out of racing and do something else. I fucking hate arrogant people...I could care less if I'm the fastest bike out there, it's all about having fun and enjoying what you're doing. If everyone is like you two clowns, my shit will be in the for sale section real quick, I don't even want to associate myself with people like you

TTT

Sorry if I seemed blunt or rude about it...I wasn't trying to offend you or anything. I just hate to hear about people like her... They only care about what they want and don't give two shits about their partner; regardless of what they say...I've seen dozens of girls like her, and they will only get worse

After reading that, ditch the bitch and get you a bike...she only gives a shit about herself and what you're gonna do for her...you'd be better of without her

^^^^ I was going to say the same thing

Can't argue with you on that!! Well, for any potential buyers, I can vouch that these arms and shocks are in excellent shape and Derek is great to deal with...

What for?

Agreed...A dremel might be OK for the really tight spots, but overall you'd be spending a LOT of time trying to polish it with a dremel. You could have it done in an hour or two with the die grinder. Last cover I polished I just sanded the paint off, then started polishing it with compound and a die grinder. If you want it to really shine, I've found that starting off with a 200 grit paper, then 400, then 800, 1000, and final wet sand with 2000 grit paper...then start your polishing. Pick up a can of Mother's Billet polish to use after you're done with the buffing wheel, it helps to get all the leftover compound off and leaves the metal with a brilliant shine.

See, that's what I'm talking about...none of those rules make sense

What I want to know is...who came up with the rules for the classes? In the open mod class, you can have a stroker crank but no aftermarket head? Who's gonna put a stroker crank in and no porting or aftermarket head? If you get porting with the crank (which most people do), you're not gonna leave the stock head on there...it just seems kind of retarded to me If those are the rules, I'm definitely not gonna waste my time going...I'd be running with the all the folks with their flux capacitors and shit and the only thing putting me in that class would be my Noss head

I've been eyeing a new R1 for a while now...would help tremendously on gas. Wife says I can't spend any more money on toys for me though, I gotta buy her a new ride first

Like mine I haven't had any problems so far!!

Ebay!!

I bet you could find a used 2004 model for that price. I wouldn't expect anything newer though Not on the west coast but hey http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2004-Yamaha...sspagenameZWDVW http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2004-Yamaha...sspagenameZWDVW http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yamaha-YFZ-...sspagenameZWDVW http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/yfz-450-atv...629080147QQrdZ1

HAHA, what you don't know won't hurt you Working on fixing it now, Tyler helped point it out at the LS trip No cracks, but a big mess

I agree with Deuce, if it works fine now, leave it be....I wouldn't mess with it any more until the next time for a rebuild, or the JB weld wears off and you have to do something. Function over form

Thanks man!

Don't get your panties in a bunch...maybe if you gave us more info, you might have received a response you liked....rather than nothing What kind of air filter setup are you running? To be honest, the best person to tell you the starting point would be the person who ported the cylinders. Aside from that, if you're going down in elevation, you should go up on jetting.

I agree with Hilarious...they are water repellant, but not resistant. Are you running an airbox or are the air filters clamped on the carbs?

That's good to hear, glad you made out OK too... 26 years young Thanks everyone!!
