  1. jetting has always thrown me for a loop....that's what everyone says...."jet bigger the closer you get to sea level" but both of my bikes are backwards....at sea level, on my '99, I run a 310 at 4500 ft elevation i run a 340....on my 421 I used a 160 for the break in proocess and I use a 155 at 4500ft elevation.... I can't remember what i was running at 200ft above sea level..i want to say I ran a 148..but it's been too long. I've also heard people say that since the air is thinner the higher you go, the bigger your main has to be to compensate for the thinner air.... I jet according to what my bikes tell me....
  2. I have a set of 22x8x10 dune runners/trakkers and need some rims....My options are 10x5 or 10x6.... what would you guys run??? I am going to run these on my 421 PV motor
  3. You are going to notice I big difference for the better. The throttle repsonse, the way it runs(accelerates etc) with put a smile on your face... Since you are at seal level I's go no more than a 340....on my '99(mods in my sig) I run a 340 at 4500ft above sea leavel and a 310 at 200 ft above sea level and that is right on and it runs extremely strong. BUT, every motor is different and you may have to play with the jetting to get it right...You are good for the pilot jet...perfect size.
  4. I had the Fox V3 Carey Hart Ltd edition and it was awesome. it vented nicely and the cooling ducts actually worked when riding....It was light as well. The V2's use the same technology as the V3's.. I tried a V2 on and I liked it...I'm going to get one...soon
  5. I'll try to make it for a one day trip.... have to work Sunday....
  6. Trust me that has come to mind.... :yelrotflmao:
  7. Ok I've searched and found nothing.....I am looking for a aftermarket axle nut that will fit an OEM axle....I've found the nuts but none of them state whether they will fit an OEM axle.... and I'm looking for a set of brake line holders to fit my Wicked a-arms that are 7/8"... all I find are holders that will fit 3/4 and 1" a-arms.....someone help a brotha out.....thanks in advance
  8. I have the 22-11-10 9 paddle extremes and love them... I run them on my 421PV motor and depending on the sand I launch in either first or second. I think you should be bale to hook better with the extremes than the rippers....but I've never run rippers so I may be wrong.
  9. Yes PM me some pics please....Are the cases trenched??
  10. can you PM me some pics, what's all included...and what brand is this??
  11. I saw those cases he was selling and asked for some internal pics of the cases and never heard back from him... I have the money but he never sent the pics...I'd still buy them though...
  12. Ok I'm goign to start my long term build of a 10mil 535 cheetah PV motor hill shooter... I'm in the search for the bottom end to start off with....I need a set of GOOD cases( trenched would be a plus), crank, and a 1-5 overide with Neutral down. I don't want anythng that is junk and pictures will be looked at first.... I have my 421 PV as my duner.....now I want to build a hill shooter... Thanks in advance
  13. The bottme end still for sale??? Need something to start a new build with??
  14. Neutral down?? everything included? Send pic to me....I'll PM with my email address
  15. I run the E3 plugs in my car and truck...I've seen some gas mileage increase but it's nothing major....On a long freeway trip I gained an extra 50 miles to the tank and not sure on the car yet...haven't had it on a long trip since I put them in. I "think" it helped power wise... noticed the truck was pulling a lot better going up hill on I-80 with the trailer loaded with 2 banshees and the truck was loaded with all the gear, tools etc for a 4 week stay at Sand Mt. Nv. Every car is different so it may work for some and not for others...also the way you drive plays a big factor as well...
  16. I can't believe I missed that....twice....Sorry I hadn't had my after work beer yet....
  17. Are you looking for a cheetah set up or gettinf rid of????
  18. Look up NitroTate on here... he's posted some stuff he's powdercoated and looks prettydamn good to me... There people on here that have had stuf done by him... Do a search and see what they say about him.... I'm going to get some stuff together and send to him to Powerder coat for me.
  19. How is the PV set up...set up???? 421...535...???? would lke more info
  20. Carbs dirty, air filters clean, cross over tube connected, cracks in the carb boots?? I haven't read all your posts so i have no idea what your mods are or what the issue you had before was but it could be something real simple if it ran fine the last time you rode it...
  21. From what i understand a drag bike will never be finished... it will require constant tinkering i.e tuning, lighteneing of parts, etc....but that's the fun part...
  22. Do a search on this using my screen name....I had the same issue but on the right side.....It came to be my needle was messed up at the tip
