  1. I think I'd go. Only if he stuff's his sweat pants like the video of when he was on that mini elliptical device.
  2. So I take it there was a garage sale with lots of "Ex husband's stupid parts collection" on a table for Low low prices.....Aren't you local, what's it cost for the wife to get a few thugs from work to go check things out?
  3. I know wheelie bars are taboo in the dunes.... But in all fairness, how did this thing run?
  4. Eewwww, lunch with zillerfreaker!
  5. How does it run now compared to at the dunes?
  6. Ha, I know it's a pain in the ass to learn. I didn't find this place till I was about 16-17 and I made a few boo boos and put a hole in a piston. People are just trying to save you that headache. Another pain in the ass. I think you may wanna try those 27.5's one more time. I know it wouldn't start or whatever before but I'm assuming there was something going on causing ill spark or a flooding situation. Dunno for sure, but I'd be pretty close to betting my nuts, that if you get it started on a 27.5 it'll be much happier. Those plugs need more color. There is no way a 27.5 makes the motor so rich that it won't start. To boot, rich motors start easy..... Till you get to the point of a flooding situation, but that would take a lot of fuel to do.
  7. That vent hose in the clutch cover sits right above the reccomended oil amount. Add a little extra and you got a drippy line. Cap it, plug it, or remove it for a Billit plate.
  8. Driveline. I had been messing with some carbon fiber clutches STY gave me. I think they're Barnett. They are pretty snazzy. Took it apart twice to check on em and they hold up sweet.
  9. On board. Go on... Only thing that's not totally kosher in that is the stroke relating to transfers. That wouldn't apply to stroking stock cyls, but the taller aftermarket cylinders it definitely is a factor as they're cast per stroke.
  10. Jeff stays busy so the engine builds aren't 10 days, but it gets done right. At least every time I've dealt with any box with the FAST name on it. I've assembled stuff they machined and it's been pretty nice. I have ordered parts from them countless times and is always prompt. I've had both Jeff and Cody take care of my stuff after hours multiple times and I'll always call them first for parts.
  11. Ok, so the clean plug was wiped? What do they look like now?
  12. I know that stuff is out there, but I don't know shit about it. I've never built anything big enough to even need them. That's why I asked about it
  13. Ha! Yeah they had front and back switched
  14. Work more if it's about money. I bet you actually could find a used serval in the FS section. Quite a few serval part outs.
  15. This is about the best way for said scenario.
  16. Is this just putting around or getting in the throttle? One of those plugs has almost zero color and the other looks totally different. Did the ring on the end look all wet like fuel was washing the color off or kinda dry? Hard to tell in the photo. Looks goofy though.
  17. Hate to do it but I agree with sloth^ Bpb, I wasn't saying a big bore 4mm is a bad idea. I was just trying to show that an extreme sized piston could potentially be an issue, but after looking at a bunch of different cranks, it seems that the 4mm HotRods rods are about as durable as anything, so maybe I'm just putting my foot in my mouth. Idea. If you are serious about building a few race bikes, why not throw a few 421 cubs together. Just shelf stock with poor man's CPI's and used sets of 35 PWK's. Lease the bikes..... You can get fancy, but why if they're just bikes you're selling. Really you are gonna take a loss unless you start just buying used motors to toss in them or something. Building a good cub costs about the same as what guys are getting for decent complete bikes. Maybe just build a few stock stroke draggers. Send a few motors off at once and possibly get a deal. Have the cylinders done and stock heads re chambered, cranks checked and welded with new bearings, cheap used VF3's, used sets of 34mm PJ's.
  18. Specs, they're about as vague as the original question. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
  19. Welp, good luck sorry.
  20. No, I know there are 125 rods. I'm referring to the girth or thickness of he rod.
