  1. So red96shee, are you able to help get new bearing nuts produced?
  2. ^ or..... Take a peek at the reeds and give it a comp test.
  3. Yes, timing plates are worth the dollars. But sprink has a point with fixing before upgrading.
  4. That's actuallly a nice bike. Not worth 7K though.
  5. Talk to loco, he's in Missouri. He can get all locoporto on your cylinder. Ask him about the DM port...... He could probably do it cheap.
  6. You mess with "Crank Shop" carbs?
  7. As you seem to want a max clearance arm, I'm assuming they are for woods riding. Any bike that truly benefits an arm like that should probably only have +2 arms. +3 is just to much for woods riding. There is a reason GNCC bikes are not as wide as the motocross stuff.
  8. Dune durations FTW!
  9. Sure they do, just takes some good ol' fashioned white folk elbow grease.
  10. VF4. I'd bet you can find a killer deal on the VF3's since every one is going to 4's though.
  11. Exactly how I had to ride to run with this fella. Friggin kid races sport bikes and motocross in Pro Am all year and he is freaking fast. He wouldn't give up the inside so I had to spend the whole day working the outside to get around him every time we ran laps. The trick is to set your self up. Use your bike to clean out the turn gradually where it's building up. Then a few laps in, you sort of have a cleaner path to try and make a run by on the out side. In this photo we are just coming out of the turn. Normally at that point if you're on the inside, you are typically working the clutch, hunting gears, or doing what ever you have to to get the bike to START to come alive while the 4 strokes sort of just lug away till you're hooked up and grabbing gears. But you have to play catch up before you can run by on the straight. So if you can avoid that all together and situate you're self so that the bike is charging hard from the apex of the turn, you're already full steam when the straight starts. Which leaves 4 pokes no chance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. What carbs, and what other mods? What oil are you using for pre mix?
  13. Modded stocker is also a viable option
  14. How bout the bump steer of both designs? And does camber change through the travel more or less on either? I've personally never seen JD arms on any thing but an LTR450.
  15. Keep us posted on the 10w30 experiment.
  16. Need to pull the cover and watch what the detent arm, star, and shaft are all doing. Could be a simple adjustment or the shift shaft has been modded a bit to far.
  17. Do not buy a plate that is cast aluminum. Make sure to get a Billit one. They are 20-30 bucks more, however they prevent catastrophes that are known to happen with the cheaper junk powder cast cheapos.
  18. Shhh, you're gonna fuck it up sharing thoughts like that.
  19. Also, you mention you are looking at plates and stators. Be very leary of the stator and cast plate combos. STAY AWAY FROM: RM Rick's Rickey Stator Electro Sport Racetech (suit your self folks, mine didn't work and I had to fix the replacement as well)
  20. Interesting.
  21. Any one ever notice this is a common occurrence when the poster has a sweet gangster name?
  22. Hmm. Are you even getting wide open? If so, the fuel is just washin right off the plug. That's a problem. Because with the mods listed, a 280 main on that bike isn't far fetched rich enough to clean off that much. I'd say you may have a possible weak spark situation or worse, the bike has coolant entering the cyl and it's doing the washing. The pilot on that seems like it would be weak as shit as well. Does it caugh or hesitate off the bottom end?
  23. You can do a sleeve in the case for the shift shaft. OP, find an image with every nut and bolt of the entire motor. Either in a microfiche, clymer, etc. But make sure you not only see that you have everything, but check the condition of every component. Rods for the shift forks, eccentric hardware, new clutch retaining clip, bronze bushing on the clutch ok?, case studs, clutch arm hardware, EVERYTHING. Jeff has a pretty decent website, it helps to just go page by page in the OEM section and just get almost everything new.
