go try warming your cylinders (if you still can) up for like 3 or 4 minutes (probably not even that long, just long enough that the cylinders are warm to the touch, and then do the reading again. (make sure its screwed in nice and snug). Leave the gas on, give it full throttle, and kick it over again until it stops. I'm pretty sure it should read the same, but I've never done a comp. test after riding for a good while. At 1000 ft you should be sitting right at about 120. I'm guessing you are at the point that you'd want to start really looking into a rebuild before something lets go and you have bigger worries on your hands. Get a clymer manual, pull the cylinders (make sure you untorque the head in reverse sequence to help not warp it.), take the cylinders to a machine shop, (35 to 40 a side about, any machine shop in the phonebook should be able to do it)and see what they need to be bored to. Then order the piston kit (150 shipped from a couple different places) and take the pistons and cylinders to the machine shop and they will machine the cylinders for the pistons. Install and your ready for a break in. We've got lotsssss of tips for that as well

This is what happens when its rainy the day before and you head up there, its not as dusty and you dont collect as much dust on your filter, but it sticks to EVERYTHING, like a fine grit....I'd rather have this than the dust field.....your filter will look a lot worse if its dusty:

That sucks man.....lesson learned, In high grass (or pretty much any riding for that matter, including motorcycles on the road) always do a drive thru before you rip through it. I learned that lesson when I was like 15 and on my snowmobile and almost clotheslined myself on electrical wire at like 60......

looking for something cheap, need something to match the red front plastics I'm getting or something I can paint white. Dont want to spend a lot of money on it. No deep gouges or cracks. Thanks

alright, all is cool. When the money transfer is completed to your paypal account, its the same as me giving you cash. The money is on your side from then on. It's not like I can just reach back in and take it from you. Money transfering from paypal to your account shouldnt have any effect of waiting to send stuff. let me know when you get the tracking number.....not trying to start stuff, just was getting frustrated with all the delay.

I'll sign up when you answer my PM's and send me my stuff.........

hey....whats his address.....I'm about ready to head out to Ohio from the Philly area to beat some rims, tires and seat out of SOMEONE that posted in this thread, that wont return my PM's even though he's posted since I've sent them, and said they'd go out like tomorrow, and should've gone out way before then since the paypal transfer was completed instantly..... I could use a good warm up beating on the way out there.......

here's that riser setup I was talking about: http://www.roxspeedfx.com/bar_riser.cfm?prd=atv

can you add an anti-vibe setup to a stock steering stem setup? Is their any other cheap way that I could raise the handlebars short of getting a longer steering stem? I remember seeing some adjustment bar thing or something of that type maybe in an ad in dirtwheels?

I'm in love with my adjustible LRD's, you can adjust them for where the powerband comes on, have a nice wide powerband hit so you can ride in that sweet spot at all times. Great not in powerband power and pull just as long as the T-5's. I wouldnt trade them for any other pipe, you can adjust the pipe to your riding style and bike modifications, not try to tune the bike to your pipes, and adjust your riding to how the pipes are.

go with a good plug like a br8eg or ev I think it is. Unless you can find the non screw off top b8es or Br8es....I've had so many tops spin off of my sparkplugs I'll never run a removable top plug again. I stripped one out riding once....it actually stripped the thread from the vibration.....luckily I could flip it over and screw it on a little bit to make it back to camp cause I didnt have my extra plugs like I usually do with me.
-
65 shipped is a good deal if its in good shape. I wouldnt sell the extra one I have for that cheap. Look what they are going for on ebay

I was thinking about this today, and have come to the conclusion that presidents are for the most part.....just puppets. I've gotta give bush credit....he's thrown some of his texas ways in there....but was that string even pulled by his dad? The head of the FCC is Dick Cheney's son......The FCC is not elected.....not a part of the government really.....and are just appointed. If you believe this all just started with Janet Jackson's boob....you're correct....It was a spotlight that could be moved from George Bush declaring the war was over when it obviously isnt, to something to get peoples minds on something else. If you dont think this whole FCC push isnt because of bush and his people.....U R SOFA KING READ TODD DID He is a decent president, and much better than Al Gore I believe could ever be, cause god if he isnt a puppet waiting to happen. But his ways of starting this war we're horrible. Instead of pushing this WMD thing through the UN and going off on our own with this thing, why didnt he push the fact that Saddam is the hitler of our time, and he's doing it to his own people. The way people were living over there was sad, and it didnt have to be that way with all the money and oil that country has to offer. They are a country that has the most chance of being a civil country, under whatever form of govt. they choose, out of all the surrounding countries. I believe that they should of approached this in the manner of a building block for the middle east. I'm just tired of seeing puppets come and go in this role as president. When are we going to get a REAL president again? Maybe never.....I dont see it coming from this reelection. It makes me not even want to vote. I think I might just close my eyes and pull a lever.

what all does it need to get it back to riding? Engine and wiring harness?
-
well....since I hit 1000 posts in this thread with this name....I'd have to say this ones the pro.....even though my other personality has been around longer.....Maybe I need to start instilling more of his assanine ways and bring his pro level up....

ah its not to bad really. On wednsday the smoke coming out of the breather tube was starting to get bad and was bothering me, so when I got done my route I brought it into the shop and showed them....Of course it wasnt doing it as bad as out on route cause I had it opened up on the roads to clean it out some. The one mechanic that does most the work on my truck and has been there for years was like....yup....looks like the engines starting to go..... The head of the shop says....just keep putting oil in it.... So I put oil in it, take it out today....and its smoking so bad that I couldnt take it anymore and brought it back and parked it in the bay right in front of his office and left it running. Grabbed the key and took the spare. Like 5 minutes later the head of the shop calls me and asks me what my truck was doing sitting there still running.....I was like.....just keep putting oil in it I had to sit in my office all day dealing with it....I figured why not let him sit in his office and get some of what I had..... I just got it back 2 mondays ago from getting a new transmission in it, only thing left is the rear......maybe I should start powerbraking it when I get it back.....
