  1. I found the regulations but am unclear on a few things, stupid newb questions, but are the 2-strokes silencers considered spark arrestors.

    How many of the rules and regs are inforced?

    Some say only orange whips, is it true?

    Living in Las Vegas what the deal with registration anywhere?

     

    You need a orange or red flag

    I dont think the silencers are considered spark arrestors. I dont have any sparkys on my bike in glamis. As long as you dont do anything stupid in front of the rangers they wont sweat you.

    your bikes need to be registered, red or green sticker in Ca. If they are registered in another state then I think you have to get a visitors registration. Just another way to some more money. Mine is registered in Ca, but I have not put the sticker on the bike sence 04. Like said above, dont give the rangers any reason to sweat you and you'll be fine. The biggest thing they drive around and check for is to see if you have your $90 yearly pass in the window.

  2. You can also check out some turntables for over 100k. No one will ever convince a true audiophile that digital is better than vinyl. Also check out the link for the most expensive speakers and amps.

    I'd feel bad about scratchin a record on one of those things

  3. The stock rear shock on a banshee is not a bad shock at all. You can have it re valved and sprung for your weight. A good shop to have it done at is precision concepts in SD. Have a few friends that have done this and love it.

  4. Have a couple items Im wantin to gt rid of. Ive got a stock air box with pro flow type adapter and filter with outerware. A big bar adapter to run 1 1/8 bars. Its made by Stan (Cotton Eyed Joe). Its anodized black. I also have some ac nerf bars. The ones with the propegs and heelgaurds. Im not sure if I have the hardware that you mount the front of them to the frame. easy to find though.

     

    $70 OBO for the filter plus airbox

    $125 OBO for the nerfs

    $50 OBO for the adapter

  5. Really, for the most part its pretty simple. Drain your coolant and oil. Pull all hoses from the top end. Pull the head and gasket. remove the juggs. Have them honed or bored, whatever is needed. stuff some rags around the rods so nothing falls in the crank. clean surface for base gasket. push bearings out of pistons and remove them. clean rods for new bearings. Install new needle bearings. put on new pistons and make sure your new circlips fit into the grooves. You will see what Im talkin bout when you pull them apart. Also make sure you dont drop one into the crank. Hence the rags. you also need to make sure the gap on the rings is appropriate for you application. You can have the shop that hones your cylinders do this. Bring your top end kit with you when you have the cylinders honed. once this is all done, you will install the rings on your pistons. Make sure the gap is lined up with pin on the inside race of the piston. Then you'll need to take one of the rods up to top dead center and slowly put one jug on at a time. Once on you should be able to see if your rings are still centered through the intakes. Bolt down to proper torque specs. Make sure your head gasket area is clean for new gasket. Install new gasket then cleaned head. After this you should put on your reeds and intakes with new gaskets and do a leak down test. There are a lot of threads on this. I think rnbrad has a good one on this topic. Then put your carbs and exhaust on and break it in, of course after adding your coolant and trans oil of choice. The biggest thing you want to keep in mind is keeping every thing clean. Power wash your bike before doing this so nothing falls into your motor while doing the top end. Good luck and you'll its really a pretty easy as long as you take your time and have some patience .
