they said its only gonna be like 200 more than the regular ones. On a side note, when do your dirtwheels magazines come for those that get them? Mine's the March issue and I'm getting it in January. It usually happens like that and I actually thought I'd of gotten it a few days ago. It usually comes sometime in the last week of the month, but its like a month early.

we wouldnt be leaving our truck overnite in the strippins, we'd be camping with them, but during the day it would be. I've never had a problem anywhere with anyone messing with my stuff, I just dont bring anything valuable and put tools and stuff that could be easily taken in the truck. If theirs any more worries bring a long chain and a lock and run it through your gas cans and extra wheels and such and wrap it around your axle or frame of your truck. I'll be bringing one cooler for alcohol, and another cooler for food for the weekend.

they did a big issue on the banshee like 2 years ago......I got it laying around here somewhere. It was a pretty good issue....it wasnt a shootout but heck, the banshees already proven to be king, and mod for mod nothing can beat it. This was the shootout everyones been speculating about, I dont even know why they threw the gas gas in there? It's a good quad and I guess its a worthy component, but everyones looking at the 2 big manufacturers going at it. I sat on a 450R today for the first time and it feels like your sitting on something inbetween a 250R and a 400ex. The brakes are real tight on it and feel like they'd lock up in the first 1/5th of the pull on them. The seat is a little more comfortable than the yamaha, which is weird to say. It's still to early to tell which will lead the pack.....that pic of the 450R above won the baja1000 and only 8 bikes finished ahead of it, so who knows who will come out on top when they are all hopped up.

they say the headlights have a blued tint to them....it looks pretty cool in the mag

here's that black yfz that everyone was trying to photochop: A 450R with no fenders.....ugliest lookin thing I've ever seen. and the best part about the mag, they did the shootout between the yfz, the 450R, and the gas gas and the yamaha beat it at everything. Dragging in they were about the same, but the dyno graph says it all. On a side note.....in the part where they do the shootout.....theres an ad for NBS distributing, they used to be Recreation Unlimited.....obviously their service is shitty enough that they're trying to change their name and website.....fuckin bastards

can you get me pics of that grey one Mr. mooney?

I feel sorry for the sucker that bought it......you can buy the whole bike for that much Thats if it really did sell.....or someone was trying to keep their dignity.

lol, hey meat, I think you outta start building that campsite as soon as the weather breaks. You've got a great big riding area with lots of different variations of riding and a little bit of everything. With it being a whole weekend thing do you think you could find a place that is truck accessible? We'd have to carry gas, clothes, food, water, beer, spare tires, etc etc etc. and it would just be 20 times easier if you could get to it with a truck. And if someone doesnt have a truck or a 2wd s-10 or something that cant make it back, they could always park it at your house and then we could load everything up in my truck or something and bring it down. Shit.....I'm already ready to call in sick on a friday to get there early.

This country is still recovering from 9/11, and the stock markets took a major dive from it. People started not spending money because of both reasons. I agree on the separating of classes and Bush is also did something about that. If you remember last year or 2 years ago there were more tax brackets added in so if you just popped over that mark....you wouldnt get screwed on your taxes as much. I was one of those people that the added tax brackets helped. It was the first year I would've been bumped into a new tax bracket, and it would've hurt me. What the hell would've happened if Al Gore was President when the trade center got hit......hell....he might nut bumble the word potato.....but he sure cant spell it. We are at war trying to take the initiative to make this world a safer place. It was all fine when they were blowing themselves up over there......but now they're trying to blow us up as well. How would you like to be walking along the street and a box truck drives by and next thing you know the whole thing becomes a blast zone? I'm willing to not have a pay increase, or even decrease a little in pay to ensure that I'm not gonna be a target. After all is said and done, I dont agree with some of his policies, like trying to get all this money to go to mars right now.....who cares about mars right this minute.....lets take care of one thing at a time....as a country, as a whole. And then we can move on to taking joy rides to the moon and farther. And about him with the deficit thing. With Clinton, he let things flow, and let the market run, which was good, it got us out of a big hole. But if you let things run to long, they are bound to break. He was closing down military bases all over, cutting back everything, which was fine, and he got us to be where we needed to be. Now it's bush's turn, he's tightened down the hatches, and is doing some much needed maitenance, which costs money. So we get put into another little hole that we'll have to work our way out of. He wants to go to Mars, which is a great idea. Our world has been sitting around to long to not have gone back to the moon. People always talk about other "intelligent life" out there, are we just gonna wait around for them to come find us? We're intelligent also, why not go try to find them. This planet is only gonna be around for so long. Why not try to find another habitable location. It might take thousands of years until we can.....but we need to start somewhere.

me and my buddy when we were 8 got this bulltaco 250 from one of his dads friends for free. He said if we could get it to run have at it. The carb was all messed up so we got another carb for it and it ran like a raped ape......especially for being 8. Thing was so big that when we wanted to stop somewhere we'd have to pull up to a wall, or a tree or something and lean it into it, because we were to small to put our feet down. And if that bitch fell over it would take both of us to stand it back up again. Then I got a suzuki185 (I forget displacement), only suspension was the balloon tires. That thing was sweet, you could float it down the river and keep it running. Went through about 20 200x's. Buyin'em for like 100 bucks, putting 200-300 into them and riding the hell out of them and then selling them for 600-1000. Some of them we're badass with high compression and such. Had an atc250R, sold that to my buddy, wish I could come across another good deal on one. Bought a blaster blown up for 200 bucks, threw 2 top ends in it and beat the ever living piss out of it trying to stay up with banshees, raptors, and 250R's. Sold that for 900, and bought the banshee.....which I will never sell. I have way to much money into it. When I get to old to ride it I'm just gonna keep buying bling for it until I cant anymore and at least I can blame my drooling problem on the shee.

yeah, get them to ship it through the Postal service. It's cheaper. If they wont then tell them your going to go with another company that will ship it USPS and it'll be cheaper in the long run without the duties.

-Cryogenic treated Crank assembly with TZ big-end pins and Roller bearings & 115mm Rods: equates to 373cc Requires Cometic long rod Base Gasket instead of doing that base gasket why dont you use some 795 series pistons, or cant you in an rz engine? I dont see 75 hp being that much considering I believe it was Twisted2Stroke I saw that posted a dyno run graph that was 72 hp and his bike was all bolt ons. This is a full race effort motor and only happy between 9-11500 rpm. Pushes over 75+HP and is very reliable, over 1200 race miles thus far. ASSA, ARHMA AFM and CCS Legal for Twins, slaughters SV650's. Not streetable. between 9-11500 rpm? So basically it would be a drag engine. So the few of us on here that drag our engines might be a little interested in the setup......but I know a lot of guys on here that have similar setups that are pushing 90-100 hp......even more. Shit, my banshee is almost 60hp, and its got no inside engine work done to it and pulls like a mofo from off idle.

HEY.....This isnt the Rides Of Stupidity forum

stroker in the works

the graphics are from Alba and they're like 140 or so.

I think it looks cook being a shade off like that. I've finally got most the pieces for my white plastic that I'm gonna be putting all my stickers on. I think I still have the stickers from when I got my head, if not I'll have to get some new ones off you. Now all I need is a white radiator shroud and maybe a silver seat.

Those mudsharks run pretty well in the snow, thats what I got on mine right now and I was bringing the front end up in the snow winding out second gear. With it being as powdery as it is its not gonna build up and restrict you as much as thicker snow will. Go try it out, you might be alright. I know we were fine in the fields but it had drifted all away and was only 2-3 inches maybe. Kind of like the snow report at Philly international airport was only 1.6 inches....cause it all blew away.

I'll give you 200 and pick it up this weekend

The thing that sucks the most is that before we went to the riding spot, My buddy wanted to check out his 250R's slipping clutch, so we took it around the block and I have the footage of that. Then we get to the riding spot, and you have to put the camcorder on vcr, instead of camera mode, and my dumbass put it on the camera mode, so I have about 2 hours of sound.....with no video. It was a good f'in ride too. I ran out of camcorder battery, and we headed back to the truck, and one last wheelie up the driveway and next thing I know my rear grab bar is digging in, right rear wheel is digging in, and I'm cartwheeling. So I didnt get shit, except a bent a-arm (1000 dollars later I got arms and shocks all the way around), bent grab bar (still bent), and 150 to fix my camcorder. I got a sony trv-330. You can get them used off ebay for like 300 bucks. It's a really good camera and does a good job. I've beat the hell out of it and it still worked until my whole body landed on it (probably woulda been o.k. if I had it in a bookbag). You need a camera with an A/V in plug. Mine new was like 800 back in the day. They're a lot cheaper now. They're not to big and you could pad it up pretty good in a bookbag. It also has a plug that you get a button on a cord that you can turn the camcorder on/off and play/pause with it. It's nice to have so you dont have to be in and out of your bag to shut it off when you stop. I got the 420 resolution cam and it was expensive, but worth it. I just got so sick of going on rides, and not taking any pictures or filming because I was to busy riding. Even if I stop somewhere and someone else is riding, hitting climbs etc, instead of pulling the camcorder out, I just watch what he's doing and it films it. I'll have it up and running again in a couple weeks, and I gotta get rid of this win98 system on this computer and put at least 2000 so I can get some sound uploaded, and then I'll show you how we do it We're a crazy bunch.....

Why tax it when they reap the benefits of it being illegal. It's amazing how many hard drugs that dont smell, and before they are cut can be transferred in much smaller masses, get confiscated......but trailers full of bud can make it past customs.....and all the money does is filter up for being quiet. Why give it to the govt for stuff when they can pocket it. Before I got my CDL I used to smoke to the point that it was a normalcy. I used to sell enough that I didnt have to pay for it and basically smoked it like someone would smoke cigarrettes. They say all this crap on the commercials how its 5 times worse than smoking a cigarrette for you healthwise with the carcinogens. Yet they fail to mention the fact that cigarrettes contain nicotine which kill the cilia in your throat that clean your lungs. When you stop smoking pot, your lungs can still clean themselves, with cigarrettes the carcinogens eventually end up staying in your lungs, and thats how you develop emphysema and lung cancer. I did a whole big report on it in highschool and have a big times article on the medical purposes of it. I think its much better than alcohol. I've never been to stoned to drive, I've never gotten "marijuana" poisoning, and all in all its nice to just be able to sit back and smoke a joint, and relax. But now I have to resort to alcohol to relax because I could lose my job if I smoked.

lol, I bet you learned a valuable lesson, adjust your clutch with the adjuster at the clutch perch all the way in.

or we dont know what went wrong with it. It looks like it got hot. I dunno though. With the 2 into 1 setup, does it have a metal intake? With the one like that and the other one looking that much better, i'd say if it went lean it was somewhere after the intake split that it went lean, if in fact thats what happened.

are those the main hills in the area? The big hills? They look pretty small. The one place I go riding that your not really supposed to right near jim Thorpe theres hills piled that are about twice as long. I've been other places too (the one place that got closed by 8bees or however you say it). How big is that riding spot, do the trails interconnect into other coal spots?

thats why I run Yahoo mail, the only way you can get a virus from an email is by downloading a file directly to your computer. It's like looking at a website, not something that is part of your computer. I've gotten a few of those emails and sent one to yahoo about it and they said dont worry about it, just dont d/l something.
