  1. It's not my bike but I thought there might be some interest here. If I had teh money it would be mine :biggrin: http://spokane.craigslist.org/mcy/732968474.html Cheers,
  2. I pop in at least once a week. Just don't post much. We'll see about getting the shee (keep your fingers crossed for me :biggrin: ) need to raise the funds before it sells. I'm still a broke college person. another year and I'll finish my B.S.
  3. yes it's my stuff, all brand new. I have a chance to get another shee just about $500 short. Help me out and buy my stuff. http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ2...gargamelQ5fshee Thanks, Jeremy
  4. there you go, that's a good idea building them is as much fun as riding them :baseball_original:
  5. aluminum transfer heat quicker then rubber, air cools it. I don't have numbers to say it help "x" amount but every little bit helps IMO. and looks cool :biggrin:
  6. OK? So is that interested as in you would like to buy it and need a place to send me the money? OR Your interested and need/want more info, but forgot to ask?
  7. that guy was on OCC the other day. He's riding that dragon bike around the world. cool find, those are wierd and cool
  8. here are some pics of one http://lerch.no-ip.com/atm/Projects/Powder_Coat/Oven.htm the site it came from ^^^ http://www.diybanter.com/archive/index.php/t-83256.html ^^ has the detail build of the oven Here is the site we used to build my friends. It works awsome!! To bad he moved with it so I can't use it anymore :sad: http://www.powdercoatoven.4t.com/Index.html The best tips I can give would be to shoot the powder outside (unless you make a both too) as it gets real messy. We even made the oven with wheels so it could be pushed outside to use. The powder is flamible and can explode in an oven of this size if the air has a lot of powder floating in it. Just use lots of ventilation and you'll be fine. hope this helps :beer:
  9. that controler looks cool. we went the cheap route: Got 4 electric ovens from the dump (you get weird looks when you go in with empty truck and come out with stuff :biggrin: ) here they have a section ppl drop off appliences only. then stripped out the oven heat element and the controls from the ovens put two sets in the bottom and two sets in the top, cover with sheet metal (so there is no direct heat to damage PC). Then use the controls out of the ovens, spliced a bottom set together with a top set (2 controls used). We used two of the oven controls so that they would be independant to keep a better temp control. This way if one is off +/_ some degrees it would have a redundent control for half the heaters. for the oven construction: got sheet metal bent like a "C" and slid high temp foam installation from lowes in it. Riveted all together, high temp silicone for exhaust all seals. and made a track system so that powder could be shot on a trolly then just rolled in the oven There is a website that we got the idea from that showed good pics, and we just changed it as to meet his needs. I'll see if I can find that site again, it was a great help. :beer:
  10. Sorry, the way it read I thought you were on the Mexican side of the equation.
  11. That sounds big enough to put a lot of different frames in. I helped a friend build one a while back, so if you need any ideas on construction I'll tell you how we built his. It was super simple and only cost about $250 to build and was about the same size. :beer:
  12. he said "majority" a little different :biggrin:
  13. If you want something different get the Grand River Racing pipes http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Grand-River...009291287QQrdZ1 but out of the two listed T- 5's all the way. FMF are good pipes but the T-5's are better IMO. From what I have heard the GRR inframes are great and then you don't have to switch pipes later as you mod. :beer:
  14. like stated above Just ride, ride, ride. Position the shift up as needed. You'll get use to it. Broken ankles suck, and are expensive. :beer:
  15. Was it running good then al the sudden this started? Has it been slowly getting harder to start? Have you touched anything, then it acted up? Do a compression test to check your topend. Need more info to tell you other things to check. :beer:
  16. I hate humidity, thats why I moved to the West coast. Been around 97 for a week but now it cooled off a little and is a perfect 80ish. Never to hot to ride here, just wait till evening or ride in morning and it's perfect. I love the summers up here, winter is a different story.
  17. likes to take it in his Mud slinger :baseball_shocked:
