  1. You've got pricing in PM. Hex...before you make uneducated and false statements like that, you might want to find out what you're actually talking about and state facts...not heresay. I can 100% assure you they are not knockoffs, they are not Chinese made...and the materials don't even come from China... I know the players in the industry...where they get their stuff, etc. Don't post inaccurate "dune campfires stories" when there's no truth to them at all.
  2. That's funny...they're made in California....maybe by chinese or mexicans....but they're made in the USA bro. Torch works make a great radiator, no questions asked. But you pay for it big time. TeamRealTree...I will get you the best price on the net for a Radiator from BOSS, let me know if that's what you want. But I agree...unless you spend a lot of time going real slow, or have a lot of compression and/or timing....stockers work great. The extra coolant capacity is very nice, but I'd hate to see you get one to band aid what could be another problem...
  3. Ok...it's all gone. Jer...if you want the carbs, I'll have to figure out how much time and effort to ship to Canada.... You'll have to buy the brass/steel cable adjusters...gave them to a buddy. Otherwise, they're complete carbs. Give me an address. I'll take 40 for the carbs plus actual shipping to you in Canada....if that's cool, PM me....
  4. Yep...fix the caliper...or buy a used one off flebay or the boards.
  5. Nope...I love it. I'm too old, fat and out of shape to bounce around dunes all day. I'd like to pickup a second bike again one of these days...but, you can hotlap a few passes, come back...drink water or pop, have a smoke, BS...etc. I love going fast, but the friends and camaraderie is just as much fun for me as well...especially with some of the characters we all hang out with...
  6. Bone stock he could be 2000 to 3000 feet and have the top end a little worn but still usable at 105PSI... The two questions that need answering are... Is it a quality tester or a 10 dollar auto parts store bargain bin special...and as said, your elevation.
  7. Actually...no. It looks like they brazed the bigger flanges on...other than ruining the chrome right there at the flange, it actually looks pretty clean... He has FMF and CPI pipes and measured the flanges and head pipes, they won't work...
  8. The old pipes he has won't work...been there...
  9. Sean is almost TOO much of a perfectionist. He makes NICE stuff, and you get it back, it will be right. As long as you give him the right info...it'll be A1 perfect.
  10. Well...he was asking for help and advice a month ago...do you have a better idea??
  11. Just need one for the bushing/flange Sean is gonna cut. Smaller box, no need to send both..

  13. He does. Are you shipping me the pipes, Rico? Did I get you the address?
  14. I've got the airbox, lid (stock, no holes) K&N Filter AND ProDesign billet ProFlow kit... Here it is, in case you're interested. I'll end the auction early for a fellow HQ'er... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...963603&rd=1 80 shipped and it's yours.

    I got some on powder coated HUBS I might part with....they're 21X7 on douglas blue label 10s. I'll get some pics tomorrow....contemplating selling them, I like my spindle mounts!! Actually...they're in my sig pic.
  16. He runs more than that...12 (plate maxed)... A lot of different factors...7 is a great starting point. I always ran my 10 mil at 9. I bumped it to 11 at the strip, kept the same ET but lost a few MPH...when I get time, I'm going back to 9...
  17. I think since I don't know you...I don't know if you're kidding or not...that being said, I hope you are.
  18. 10000 HP. Seriously, just a number that can vary greatly from one dyno to the next, one day to the next. Here's the way it really works. You build a 100 HP banshee then get upset because a 70 HP banshee beats you...because their dyno was more conservative and the bike was better setup with a different rider. Or the opposite. A dyno is good for one thing. Well...two, actually. Comparing the same mods on the same bike within the same day/temp/altitude/humidity, etc. Or...if you want to sell motors that don't compete at tracks....or have any real competition at the track they're running at. Builders that sell motors based on dyno numbers alone and without real world testing or real competition from known tracks are just blowing smoke...IMO. But it is nice to see a dyno run on the same bike for this pipe, then this one, then this reed setup, then this dome configuration, etc. Sorry...I'm off work today, end of rant.
  19. Some builders don't need to weld anything on the outside. Triple exhaust ports is more critical than the work holes, IMO....
  20. PM Nyuk....he's either got some, or one on ebay...
  21. That's a desert racer bike...after a few hundred miles of getting your ass beat up by the trail, you'll be thankful for all that suspension... He'll never get that for that bike. It would help if he lists the motor mods as well...so people actually know what they're buying. I bet that thing handles whoops and the bumps like they don't exist...
  22. Got a few things up for auction, look for more items as I tear down the chassis. http://motors.shop.ebay.com/merchant/redrider_1997
  23. Put the plate to 0. At 120 PSI (if that's an accurate reading from an accurate gauge) with pump gas it shouldn't detonate. But, if you put a few steel ball bearings in the motor when it's running, that's what detonation sounds like...not good. Do you know what size jets are in the carbs??
