  1. i think uve been watching "Full Metal Jackets" one too many times
  2. "To All Newcomers and Rookies.............." go here before u go any further
  3. boost bottle
  4. aigh, i think ill be going with trailtech. the ones that r in my 1st post were like $300-something! i cant remember who makes 'em, but they had another set for like $100 more. goofy as hell looking IMO
  5. u combine the trinty single carb with the alba 400 stroker kit and ull have a hell of a time keeping ur front end on the ground. the 03 i built about a yr about would pull up in 4th on pavement
  6. i forgot completely about that
  7. i knew trailtech had 'em, i just want to see what all ppl r running and how they work
  8. does anyone have these, where can i get a set and how good do they work at night riding? i fig with 'em being smaller they wont be as bright.
  9. bad choice, if its like my dad's 2000, get ready to put 2 clutches and a crank in it in about a yr 1/2
  10. crank case? u mean tranny oil, right? the crank case oil is the oil u mix in ur gas
  11. i passed one of those the other day. im "bowtie" all the way, but even that mde me go WTF!?!?!
  12. why?
  13. kindof what i was thinking. id go to hotrodproducts.com and get a crank
  14. what stroke is it?
  15. sounds like merwin to me
  16. ha, ive got a flat track in my field. well, its a rough flat track
  17. how the fuck would u put a pullstarter on a banshee!?!?!!?! anyway, my buddy's 88 is doing the same thing, so now ive got a few idea on where to start looking. its doing the same thing, cant kick it over unless its warmed up in shop(about 10x) but itll fire up and run like a stripped ass ape once pull started (by another quad)
  18. ya, well, it was more like a hick-up b/c it sucked in a lot of air but didnt die
  19. a guy i ride with is plan a trip in march. just dont know when, ive been thinking of tagging along ive hear a little about chadwick. ive been to deepwater prob 5x or so and it is a good idea to know someone with a 4X4 and to not go right after it rains
  20. yesterday, 2 of my buddies and i went riding. one has a raptor, the other just picked up his new (to him, '88) banshee the night before, and i borrowed another friends YFZ(my '98 shee is still down ). the bad luck started when my buddy with the raptor was riding a wheelie across a field next to my house. i t doesnt have a wheelie bar(broke off months ago), he went back to far and couldnt get his foot on the brake in time. rolled it over and almost ripped the back finder off the left side. got it fix with baling wire and went on our merry way. next it was my turn to crash. i went down a trail or what i thought was a trail and found out it was a deadend. there was a 3ft lege and i figured "what the hell, ill just jump off and meet back up top with u guys" went to jump off, the front tire left the edge, i hit the gas to keep it going and it STALLS! throws me over the bars, bursed my chine, spraned my wrist and the YFZ landed on its lid. didnt hurt the quad, but got me pretty good. got it back on its wheels and went riding again. later on, i went off a little side trail and my buddy with the raptor was helping me walk it down. i got down and rode back to the top of the hill just opposite of where the raptor was and found out the he went a different way then me, caught a root while easing down the hill and filpped. hes alright, just a little sore and bursed. like the title says "raptor, 2 ; YFZ 1; banshee 0" the reasont he banshee has 0 was b/c this was my buddy's 1st quad and he was taking it real easy, taking short-cut trail, easying the throttle, just getting a feel for her. one hell of a day ill say
  21. re-read what u typed
  22. now that onyl depends on how much u paid for it in the 1st place. i only paid 2250 for mine, and it already hada few things on it that i was going to do anyway which saved me a goo chunk(single carb, pipes, coolhead, wisecos) the new major deal will be a 400 and port and ill still be under new price
  23. for u to get to deepwater, head striaght up 71 to adrian, then got east on 18 to clinton, then south on 13, cross 2 brigdes, then turn left on the 1st gravel road i believe (been awhile since last over there) its a long haul, but owell
