rubberneck

Im going to be there during the week tues the 18th through fri the 21st.

Yep thats their game. Blame everything on the other parts, not theirs. Nevermind that the other parts worked just fine before you installed theirs. Screw them man. I wish you had read some of my threads before ordering from those clowns. Oh well. Maybe we can keep some other HQ members from making the same mistake we did. DONT BUY ANYTHING FROM AMERICAN STAR I am putting that in the sig on every profile of every quad dirtbike and even diesel truck board I belong too.

Oh imagine that another unhappy ASR customer. (read my sig) They dicked me around for almost 4 months on a swinger that is not right. I finally did a bunch of machine work to make it right after they kept giving me the runaround and wouldn't let me return it. I just measured my ASR a arms which are +2+1 and they are 15.5 from center of pivot point to center of spindle heim joint. That idiot is probably measuring the arm itself, and not from center to center. That is my bitch about them. You obviously know what you have is wrong,yet they want to argue. screw them. if they'll give you your money back take it and go somewhere that is worth a crap. If not, yell and scream untill they get you the correct arms

You know what that sounds pretty cool, do you happen to know what the size of the ram is. I dont use it enough to justify their hydraulics, but if I could put something together for that kind of money, that would be way better than the ratchet system on their now. LOL

What kind of bender do you have? I have a JD Squared with multiple different die sets. I did not get the hydralics, i dont do enough, but man is it handy.

You know what i cant even remember right now. will have to look when i get home. Its not one of their current machines. I've had it about 8 years. It is really big so not too portable. I belive it is rated to 5/8 aluminum if i remember correctly.. To be honest, i dont use it a whole lot. next on my list of toys is a break. I have a small shear, but that could use an upgrade too.

didn't know i was a hater. whatever the hell that means. you asked for help, i told you how my bike is jetted for basically the exact mods. bottom line though, nobody can tell you what jets your bike needs. we can only get you close. You have to check the plugs and evaluate how the bike is running. Next time i wont help.

Yeah, looking forward to playing with it. Also miller fan. currently have millermatic 210 mig machine and miller plasma cutter. right now have hobart power source but no high freq, thats why no aluminum, so the new dynasty will be replacing that.

I check them at idle and get them even using the idle screws on the sides of the carbs (tors removed) Then i screw the cable adjuster at the thumb throttle out until the bike starts to rev up a little. Next adjust the cable adjusters on the carb cap untill the carbs are even again. This makes sure that the carbs are in synch at idle and in synch when you hit the throttle. Screw the cable adjuster at the thumb back in until you have about and 1/8 inch of free play at the thumb throttle and you are done.

Hobbyist also here. I do a little of everything it seems. Anything from bikes to roll cages to iron fences. Just ordered a miller Dynasty 350 tig runner package today. Cant wait to get it. Ive never welded aluminum before, so am looking forward to having that capability now. First project on the list. Im going to build a gas tank for the back of the bed of my pickup that will allow me to hook and unhook the fifth wheel without moving it. Wanting about 60 gallon capacity for the banshee race fuel. Need enough to feed 2 bikes for a week in the dunes. Im tired of all the jerry cans.

just for reference, 4mil crank, cheetah cubs, pistons, cool head, 39 pwks with billet bowls, good clutch , shearer inframes, pingle valve and all the other little stuff is gonna run you right around 4k. Should put you at 80-90 HP on race gas and will kick the shit out of the 4 poke. Dont forget you are going to need a longer swinger etc etc etc. A Cheetah motor im guessing would be at least 1500 bucks more by the time you figure the bigger reeds and the cylinders are more money.

ROFLMAO that thread is priceless

NOPE. No nice banshees here

Almost an hour and counting still up

I think he might be the owner of the site

Dang, beat me to it. that place bugs me. Id get thrown off for a free bike

Damn, its probably a good thing i dont live there. My wife is ready to divorce me over my new motor and all the other crap. Good thing i have a credit card she still doesn't know about.

I wonder if the seat is for sale

Jeff called me tonight and said all my chit is shipping tomorrow. KICK ASS :biggrin: It was 8:30 at night here, so 10:30 his time and he was still working. Busy dude. thanks for the quick service jeff

Yep, going to need to do a plug chop to verify. When i first put the pods on I went up 2 sizes to a320 and it ran great, but the smoke ring on the plug chop was very light colored. I jumped straight to the 340s and the bike actually still ran great, but the plugs looked better, so that is where she is staying. Like i said, on my bike, the pods required 4 sizes larger over a uni clamp on in the stock box with NO lid.. If you previously had a K&N clamp on then maybe the change wouldn't be as drastic, I dont know. I have never jetted a stock bike with shearers, so I cant answer the question accurately. If it runs good and doesnt' cut out at high speed, I would leave what you have in there and do a plug chop right away. May be perfect, may be lean, may be rich. Nobody can really answer.

Those are nice, I wonder if he can make them for inframe shearers. The site only mentions t5,t6,cpi

Yeah, that doesnt sound too bad at all. My smart ass remark was based solely on what the guy had told me he spent on the bike. He sent a basically new banshee down to ESR and had them do there 400 kit on it and all kinds of junk. He spent a lot of money for a bike that would barely put a bike or 2 on an RZ banshee with no porting up comp hill at dumont. Lets put it this way, I will have a lot less in my 421 cub from FAST and I gaurantee i will whip him.

Well built and well priced. LOL they are proud of their stuff

Yep personally I think all the endangered crap is just a way for the tree huggers to bully shit around.. I dont believe one word of it. Plus i find it hard to believe that pismo beach is the only damn place these things can nest. Oh well rant over its too late anyway i suppose. Jeff certainly is busy, hes putting together all my parts for my 421 build too. Cant wait.

Yeah, they looked huge compared to a t5
