  1. No issue's here with any of their stuff. I did scrap the timing plate though since I already had a pro-design.
  2. Knows what chrome does for a quad.
  3. Got ripped on by trinity.
  4. Just remember those are on stock bikes. Add some porting and other mods and a different pipe will produce a better curve.
  5. Also the extended thumb levers work great too.
  6. FAST all the way!! :beer:
  7. Transmission of refracted light in sequenced codes to distant planets and their unknown inhabitants.
  8. Happy Birthday fellas!!! :beer:
  9. I used a large washer that just slides over the threads then butts up against the thick part of the shaft where the threads end. Then just slap the nut on the end and tighten. Travis, get some pics when your done. :beer:
  10. Polish the caliper and chrome brake pad pin bolts and lock tab.
  11. I figued just that. Since it's a certain type of media it would be good for only a certain range of metals. Aluminum too soft and Titanium too hard. There is a theoretical sweet spot of effectiveness.
  12. No Travis, after the fine rol-loc I go straight to the wheel. :beer:
  13. No, the nipple is just the plastic reduction coupler where I hook the hand pump to. It doesn't touch the reeds. The reeds won't make an air tight seal. Also just rotate your flywheel a couple times once you have the engine pressurized to 6lbs.
  14. I don't agree with war, I don't condone it unnecessarily, BUT, this country (and many others) were brought to unity because of war. We cherish our freedom and our way of life, all brought about by democracy, which we have fought for. We feel all people should have this freedom and a right to choose their own destiny vs a communistic dictator choosing it for them. If we were to continue to hide our heads in the sand then these countries will continue to impose their will on the rest of the world (hitler). Communist countries breed hatred, terrorism, and want to destroy the freedoms of the western world. Why? Because freedom threatens the very existence of communism. This is why communist leaders have never liked the U.S., because of our political global influece of democracy. This will never end until we have a united (global) democracy where all countries can co-exist and be united with each other. Some say we should do something about N. Korea, some say Iran, Syria and so on. We have to start somewhere, though they key was to take Afhganistan to invade Iraq. We need to take Iraq to invade Iran and so on. This is not about oil or whatever you want to think about it, it's about the prospering of humanity. If someone can't look past the media and their personal biases and see the big picture, then you live your life based on confusion picking and choosing what those believe around you. All really not knowing what to believe so you pick a side afraid of being left in the dark. If a person believes we should not be in Iraq, they should think of what it would of been like to free the Iraqi's in 20 yrs? More likely we woudl be fighting them from our borders. Lets go ahead and cut the tree down before it's roots damage our foundation. :thumbsup:
  15. you've been reading my mail again.
  16. Wishes he could too.
  17. A pair of my favs.
  18. They will turn a golden color first, eventually they will turn blue.
  19. The "chrome suspension banshee" has fireball racing arms (Janssen). The bends on those as compared to the Quicksands are totally different. So your correct, the Quicksand's bend faces forward.
  20. I polish my stuff like once a year. I would use something like magic mix polish that has a protective wax that keeps oxidation to a minimum. Soft wheels are great when you need the wheel to bend while spinning. It allows the wheel to flex into those tight area's easier. I mainly use a firm wheel and stack a couple of them together. It takes a little more powerful motor to turn them but the key is RPM and power. It saves a lot of time.
  21. Looks great!!! Should of had them throw in some brake line clamps. :thumbsup:
  22. Well the advancement in 2 stroke technology stopped long ago, so yes 4 strokes will narrow the gap, more often exceed it, on the OEM playing field. BUT, as long as the aftermarket company's continue to make the advancements for the 2 strokes and continue to improve and refine cylinder, pistons, cranks, cases etc... it will be a long time before 4 strokes are at the top rungs of drag racing consistently, as the 2 strokes (banshee's) have done for years. It will take the likes of fireball racing with building a 1300+ cc Suzuki motor with nitrous, alcohol and a turbo to be competitive among the best 2 strokes and 100 grand in equipment. Not saying 4 strokes can't do it, it's just a huge difference in cost invested to reach the same goal.
  23. No, but I could imagine it would take a while. lol
