  1. I do enjoy the 4 stroke at glamis. Its nice being able to ride from the drags to Olds, out to china wall and back all on a 1/2 tank.
  2. I run cascade heat wraps as well with my cpi. I have white knuckle intakes and angled pods, but without the nasa wraps its a melted outerwear.
  3. Nice, welcome aboard
  4. There you go, when you watch what is going on inside with both modified and unmodified components, it becomes pretty clear, that was the point i was trying to make to possum earlier. For anybody still not understanding i will give a hint. With a stock shaft when you move the shifter you are "asking" the bike to shift. With a modified shaft you are "demanding" that it shift. The modded star just makes the process feel smoother. And i will further agree with what has been posted as far as the external mods are worth doing even without the internal mods. If im not splitting the cases i still do the shaft and star mod and it certainly helps. However on all my personal bikes i cut the trans and do a few other tweaks. It just makes a world of difference and i feel its worth the time. Now of course having a properly adjusted clutch with good basket,hub and pressure plate is absolutely necessary as well.
  5. you can wow all you want, i know exactly what he is refering to with his comments and the fact that you are arguing the point makes me realize you arent grasping the concept here. take a look at it, it will make sense, im not going to explain it.
  6. completely agree with cam on this one, the shift star mod and the shaft mod really have nothing to do with each other. You need to look at how the system works and why the shaft mod is important.
  7. The group i dune with has 6 or 7 high dollar long travel V8 sand cars. Several 6 figure builds. Guess what, the last 2 years they fucking sit in camp while everybody drives the shit out of the XP900s. Reliable and cheap compared to a sand car and when the whole group is in them, really just as fun if not more. The 20k price tag is of no concern when you are blowing up 10-20k sequential gear boxes and blown LS motors on the regular. It seems like every trip at least one of the rails has a catastrophic failure of some sort. I have no doubt that next month at least a few of the xp900s will have been replaced by the 1k models so hopefully i will get to put some seat time on a 1k. the 900s are fun as hell so im expecting the 1k will be badass. I have a feeling it will be my next toy
  8. Yep i have an nv5600, and am getting ready to rebuild it. It took me months to find synchros. If you need any hard parts good luck. Prior to this i would have never purchased and auto but if i were buying today it would be an auto truck they have come a long long way.
  9. Everybody has already said what needs to be said. I dont think the price is out of line for somebody that wants a really clean stocker that they will preserve. You could not restore one for that much money and at the end of the day it still would be restored not new. Hell those plastics alone in new shape are damn near priceless. Good luck finding a set in any kind of condition let alone like new. If you are going to modify it its a complete waste of money.
  10. Bikes looking killer man, but for fucks sake could you please clean the mud off that shit. Let the bike be clean at least just once. LOL
  11. Well since the big dyno shootout is planned for a 4 mil serval. Im gonna go out on a limb and say there wont be any 100+pulls just sayin. Got no idea what cam will squeeze out of this 10 mil in a couple of weeks but cant wait to see
  12. Had a bad day at chemo today
  13. This place hasnt had a single expert since ELKARACING-SHEE left
  14. 535 people, we let 535 fucking assholes ruin this country. well a few more if you count the president and his clown posse. what a joke
  15. Ha i was thinking about this today. I see all these pictures of workers fencing off and shutting down monuments parks etc etc. I thought they were shut down go the fuck home paul blart. The sad thing about this entire mess is the government is purposely fucking with people. Trying to ruin their vacations/trips by doing this shit and all for their inability to do their job. And lilke usuall everybody is just going to take it in the ass and do NOTHING about it. Everybody is all pissed off at congress, but the incumbent re-election is something like 90 %. So everybody hates congress supposedly, but cant even be bothered to fire them when they have the chance. We are all fucked
  16. I ran a 10 it was fucking badass man, you should totally get one and try it
  17. Damnit i was sure he was actually a democrat in real life. Guess he really is just a creepy old white dude
  18. 275 thats a deal, gonna have an entire fleet of yaris rental cars at the next dyno day i can already see the carnage
  19. Are these OG rockets or the R2s? Hopefully R2s I mean whats the point of testing a pipe nobody can get their hands on besides pure curiosity? If thats the case thats cool too. Just wondering and im most definitely hoping you guys get some cpi on that motor
  20. dear god how did i miss this
  21. Thats low as fuck man. I would love to see how attractive you are after having all your guts removed and going through chemo. And inheritance? Really? You are going to preach to people about inheritance. How do you even know he will get anything from his parents? As far as i know, every dime he has, he earned. And as far as i know he has never worked for his daddy. Maybe you should just go hop in your jeep and take a drive and reflect. Oh wait nevermind
  22. Sweet, im tired of paying child support anyway
