  1. I only needed to change clip on needle one notch.
  2. UM racing makes crap skid plates. Nothing lined up.
  3. I ride in mud and water in woods races. I have no problems with the toomey two into one filter. I have the foam one and it was a little improvement over the k&n in the airbox. It leaned out a little not enough for a jet size but a clip on the needle.
  4. Ordered a UM belly skid plate. The back two holes did not line up. The bolts were too long. The brackets were not thick enough to come in contact with the plate. I tried to email them twice two different ways. no joy. So I returned it. Shit company. Never got a reply. I think they get the stuff all welded in mexico. Looks like junk too.
  5. I race harescrambles once a month very close to gncc racing. The abuse my arms receive in one race is the same most rec. riders arms see in two years. I have the original heims that gary sent with the arms. Two years old. Oh and the two actuators on each of the space shuttle main engines that gimble them use heims not ball joints.
  6. Hey here is my old wiesco with a namura piston paired with a pin going through them. Look at the difference at the window placement. whats up with that?
  7. You need to contact the guy at fullflight. Thats him. Look on ebay. Same sucka
  8. CALL SHANE FOR SHOCK SERVICE (219) 313-1424 Does it all
  9. I was thinking of putting a through hull fitting on an old LP tank. Strapping it on the back and running a hose from it to the intake. Super boost!!! In your face!!!
  10. I dont know what to say to that?
  11. They are not thinner. If anything thicker. And alot more resilient. If you use the stock reed stops carbon fiber reeds almost certainly will never break. Stock reed stops provide a good transition for the reed. Reeds in an aftermarket cage break mostly because of the stop that it used. There is none. Just a good breaking point at the very end of were its mounted.
  12. From rickystator site. We are so proud of our full Ball Joints! There is a lot of talk about them but here are some of the facts for your review. A - Is Ricky Stator's full ball joint which has the most degrees of angle movement of all except the MOOG es2074 © which is the same. It has a 16mm threaded shaft and is essentially a copy of the TRX250R as far as the stud and socket is concerned. The ball has a lot of contact with the socket making for a more distributed load which results in better wear characteristics. Our ball joints have been tested in every long distance race and has won them all. B - Is the OEM Honda from a TRX250R. C - Is the MOOG tie-rod end from a Mazda truck. Probably used by a bazillion fabricators for at least 15 years with good success. Unfortunately it is a tie-rod end that requires greasing since it is metal to metal and has the spring (that occasionally breaks) for shock absorbing - good in tie-rod applications but not for ball joints. The threaded shaft is not always threaded straight and even also. D - Is the VW transporter tie-rod end. It has a 14 mm shank which we feel is too small (bet the guy that wrecked this one feels the same). Notice since it is a tie-rod end it has the spring also. This type has been used for years since the stud fits into the Honda spindle without machining. E - Is the "Italian" made so called ball joint. This is a typical auto tie-rod end as you can see. To order parts from Ricky Stator call: 760-787-0094
  13. We will have to use overnight shipping both ways. As I race every other weekend. Is approximately five days sufficient? If that is not enough time for your scientific professional certified opinion, then after the season perhaps.
  14. Who sent there rear shock to works?
  15. Why not make a radical heat sink resovoir with about 50 ft of braided hose you can coil up. How about a tiny co2 bottle with a trickle purge on it. Or if your rich use LH2. 12v travel fridge mounted on the back? Dry ice? Just plain ice cubes? Some hypergols? Micro fans? Heat exchanger using the gas w/recirc pump?
  16. Im thinking resovoir size is a small factor. why arent they the size of a tall boy?
  17. With the woods riding I dont recomend the zps shock for the rear. The banshee sits low as it is. The dog bone is going to sit to close to the ground.
  18. I have only sent shocks to works. They are ok. Dealing with shane was a %200 improvement. Told him I ride in the worst conditions possible for 2 hours straight (hairscrambles) My bike is like a cady now. Its nice to be able to sit on the seat while going through the whoops.
