Iam in the process of tearing my bike down to clean, powder coat, and paint everything. Iam curious what some of you have done as far as the nuts or bolts on your bike. I was curious if you guys soak them in something, paint them or what. Not trying to get to crazy with detail but while I have it apart I want to do the best job I can. Iam also curious what you would recomend for the plastic. I have heard of some products that help take out some scratches and make the plastic look a bit better. Thanks RIPPEN Idiot!!! Sorry folks---should have put this in appearance

my my Brooke... Arn't you the popular one... RIPPEN

Its scary how fragile life really is... I personaly feel you have to live everyday to its fullest and be thankfull for everyone your givin. Cuz, as some of you have said when its your, time its your time. My prayers are with his family.. RIPPEN

I cant agree with you more---all of a sudden its cool to be gay everywhere. Queer eye for the straight guy, Will and Grace, there are all these shows and movies out now that makes everyone think its great and ok to like your buddies brown eye... Its nasty and I can't stand watching these shows. Glad I have been warned of this P.O.S movie. Scared to think what it will be like in ten years if this keeps going like it is now RIPPEN

Ill have to check that out... Just today I almost got my bike tore all apart so this is right on time. Thanks for the heads up!!! RIPPEN

I was thinking the same thing, a stoke banshee shouldn't be THAT big of a hand full even for someone starting out. I had only ridden on 4X4's and a Mojave before I jumped on a Raptor and gave it hell. Wasn't that big of a deal... Me personaly i wouldn't buy a bike just to learn on and then go buy another later. Have your friend show you how to ride a bit and have him help you decide. After seeing you ride he would probably have a good idea of what you can handle Oh and I saw the Honda Raport thing too-- gotta love the newbies!!! RIPPEN

I have ridden the YFZs and I felt like I was riding a log... Heard they got a different seat now??? RIPPEN

Damn, how did this get turned around to pics of dudes???? No offense guys but we were told there was gonna be pics of chicks... RIPPEN

Damn wish I had the money(or self control) to buy a bike and just let it sit there... The YFZs don't impress me that much Not sure if people are just lazy so they don't like the kick start or mixing fuel or what. Maybe their just not aware of how fun the Banshees are... Maybe they just need to take the Banshee challenge RIPPEN

Does your friend drive a Honda??? With a huge wing??? Some dubs, and puts out 3000 horse??? That guy knows his shit.... RIPPEN

I would make ALL your phone calls before making your decision RIPPEN

Wander if he wen't so fast his retna(spelling) detached from his eye balls and thats why he's sellin.... Sounds great other than I rather have something with a little less miles... RIPPEN

Sounds like you have made up your mind already??? RIPPEN

You made the connection you hard core Metal Head LOL RIPPEN

Your right, Iam realitivly new here and Iam just going off of what has been RECENTLY SAID. Iam sure there has been things said about Jim in the past that are not fair or truethfull and I don't agree with that either. But to talk shit on peoples buisnness, just to get back at one person, sounds kinda childish. RIPPEN

That bike looks sick... Its way cool to take lots of pics so when its done it helps people see how much work you really put into it. That chick compliments it well also, did you tell her "ride for a ride"??? RIPPEN

She had you play new kids on the block when you were tappin it??? It was Sirmix-alot with me RIPPEN

Damn the captain got a few of us .... Thought I was doing pretty good until this morning RIPPEN

Probably cut the # of posts in half if everyone was required to watch that... But if that videos advice would have been followed would this topic even be here.?. RIPPEN

Damn, that chart is cool RIPPEN

Oh and this... Dude, a year before jeff showed up..??... Wow, let it go... RIPPEN

Who's cuttin jim down??? Dude you need to put the bong back in the closet and scroll back up this thread... It was your "crew" that fired the first ball of shit. If ths thread would have been made to cut Jim down then I would understand where your coming from. But in this case its you and old blue doin the shit talkin outta line... RIPPEN

Funny.... I could possibly be wrong but I can't remember the last time I saw one of Jeffs customers going out of their way just to talk shit on Jim like you all say. Its some of Jims guys that get all ass hurt and take everything personal when Jeff is mentioned. And to say that Jeff is giving a discount to his customers to talk shit.... You obviously don't know your dick from your neighbors leaf rake. I actually remember Jeff saying that Jim from passion does great work also. To be totaly truthfull I have never heard Jeff bad mouth anyone, he has always been friendly and very business like. Iam sure Jims work is great but his work isn't for everyone just as Jeffs may not be for others. But don't personaly talk shit on Jeff when he has done his best to treat everyone fairly. This is the third thread where this has been a shit storm because some of you loyal Passion guys get all personal and childish. Your loyal to your builder, your happy with his service, your happy about how your bike runs? Great, then tell the world how happy you are that your bikes rip. But quit sounding like bitchs-- "Your hills are little hills"," my top end got done before your top end". It just sounds petty and all that is gonna do is hurt your credibility, not sway others...
