  1. MINE RATTLES LIKE A MOFO, LIKE ITS GOING TO FALL OFF. IT HASENT FALLEN OFF YET.
  2. this is a scam or possibly scamola. I email'd one of these a few days ago and got the same responce "send the money western union, and I'll ship the bike" I replied and told him so ship the bike THEN I'd send him the money... what a suprise he never e-mailed me back
  3. xelerated asked about a cheap trailer, that one looked cheap to me. the trailer weighs about 1,600lbs add 4 quads (1,600lbs) thats about 3,200lbs. Thats borderline if you need trailer brakes, and even if you did would you need them on both axels? One axel would be plunty. so add 140, 725+130=855 and a bever tail? who gives a shit about that? also it says it comes with free ramps and a free spare tire in the auction. Also a pine deck should be fine hauling quads. for a cheap "quad hauling trailer" this one seems like the best choice to me, since its about half of the "16' car haulers for around $1700" boonman was talking about. I still dont know if its worth a trip to KY I'm not a trailer expert by any means but this seems like an alright deal.
  4. my mistake its $725, not $795 heres the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=2582026184 If this one is sold this guy always has another one listed. I've been thinking of getting one for myself. you could prob put 3 or 4 or so quads on there its located in Paducah, KY (western Kentucky)
  5. YOU CAN GET A 16' CAR HALUER OFF EBAY FOR 795.00. I PAID 200 FOR A POS TRAILER AND "REBUILT" IT MY SELF. ITS 5X8' (BARLY LARGE ENOUGH FOR 2 QUADS)
  6. SHOULD I CHANGE THE OIL:GAS MIX IN THE WINTER? I WAS RUNNING 24:1 IN THE SUMMER, BUT SHOULD YOU LEAN IT OUT IN THE COLD? THANKS
  7. thats what happened, I took it appart last night and I had the tops of the carbs switched. I switched them back, turned the idle back down and it runs like a champ again. thanks a lot for your help guys.
  8. yeah when I pulled the plugs they were covered in oil. I'm almost positive that I screwed something up installing that throttle cable. I'll let ya guys know what i find when i tear into it. Thanks for your help
  9. WHATS THE TORS?? thank you
  10. how do you adjust the needle a notch? mine isint running right in the cold eather... Thank you
  11. ok I can change the jets, but how do you dial in the needle? also I read on another post that the idle jet can get varnished of ot sits for a long time. but its only been sitting for about 2 months. also I forgot to mention that I replaced the throttle cable over the weeked too, so I had the top halves of the carbs off, I'm thinkin now that I may have created a vacuume leak. does this seem right? is there a common aera that is overlooked in doing work such as this? Thank you
  12. take what caps off? also how do you prevent this varnashing from hapening? I ride all the time in the summer, but hardly ever in the winter, also for some reason this never happened to me last winter..
  13. Mine is doing the same exact thing, word for word. After sitting for about 2 months, barly runs, smokes, backfires I also have the oil comming from the tailpipes and I have fouled a few sets of pulgs trying to get it to run. let me know what fixes yours. Also where is theis "hole" or jet (or whatever that guy said) that gets varnished up? maybe thats my problem? Thank you, [email protected]
  14. allstate wanted 350/year for my 02 banshee, I told them I'd wait till spring...
  15. ok heres the deal 1st off I did some mods to my 02 banshee last summer... I put on a boost bottle Jetted one size up K&N filter and prefilter removed shorkel last summer this thing was very fast, these mods really opened it up. over the weekend I went to ride it (first time in cold weather, less then 40*F, with the mods) First off when I started it black water looking stuff was comming from the tail pipe, looked like oil. Also it wouldn't idle so I had to adjust the idle up on the carbs then it kept smokeing, like it does when you first start it, only it never stopped after it warmed up, the whole ride it was smoking like crazy after about 1.5-2 hours of riding I ran out of gas, normally (even after the mads last summer) I can go at least 3 hours or so also I kept fouling out plugs. I'm not sure if the oil:gas mix is right, last summer I ran 28:1 and it ran good, and hardly ever fouled out plugs. some background on my mix. my bike is from canada and the owners manual says to run 24:1 but everyone I talk to in MI says to run 32:1 so I met in the middle. in the past this has worked fine for me. also to make things wose it was backfireing and about 1 out of 5 throttle pushes it was real easy to push and the engine would rev real high. this makes no since to me. also the throttle cable recentaly broke and it has a new yamaha throttle cable on it. well thats all I can think of, any info would be greatly aprecieated. I have no clue what to do from here, I'm thinking about putting it back to stock, but I really liked how fast it was last summer. thanks in advance oh yeah I forgot to mention, I topped off my coolant before riding, I filled the overflow jug compleatly. I dont think this would make a diff, but thought I'd mention it.
