  1. stock swingarms are fine,a bit heavy, but very strong, the only thign that sucks is the carrier and chain adjustment design, that old style blows cock definitely , if you ride hard , lot of uneven ground and whoops, the carrier eats bearings, there are only 2 and very thin, if you put a wider axle in the stock carrier it will only eat bearings faster because of the added leverage , but tons of people still do it, its ok to reuse the stock hobs on a new axle, as long as there is no play, if there is play on the splines, the old hub splines will destroy the new axle splines quick, if your gona replace the axle, definitely at least replace the bearings while you are in there too, if not the swingarm bearings too, you dont need to buy the whole pivot works kit, all balls and worldwide both sell single bearings and seals, much cheaper, have lasted just as long as the pivot works do
  2. i think alot of people, mainly the ones who DONT ride banshees in the woods/trails , dog the shit out of them, b ecause we arnt using them to go in a striaght line its not as bad as some people would lead you to believe , decent set of shocks and wider a-arms its a new bike and handles great, maybe not as great as a 450 with +3's and long travel elka elites but good enough, i dont think most people are pushing these worked 450s near to what they are capable of, go on any 450 forumn and look at the pics of these peoples bikes, you arnt cool unless you have +3 long travel arms and $3000 worth the shocks on it. take a good rider, put him on a banshee with a average set of shocks and no name brand wider arms and he will smoke the wana be on the worked 450, of course the "geometry" is better on the 450 frames, well so they say, personally i feel much more comfortable on my piece of shit 20 year old banshee frame with a set of arms and shocks, but thats just me, i feel cramped on the all the 450s i have ridden, i dont care if on paper its better, everyone always talks about paper and numbers meaning nothing when it comes to racing and dyno charts, but for some reason when it comes to chassis and shit like that, whats on paper is what seems to count to them... for me the onlything i would like more about a 450, is the power delivery , if it was TIGHT woods riding, the 450 powerplant us much more freindly and easy to run through the tight shit,
  3. i still need to mail loco one of my old little league trophies for creating the gayest thread in the history of internet 4 wheeler forums
  4. got mine from rocky mountain, although they are probably like $76 each right now with the new prices
  5. 5:1 bertolli extrra virgin
  6. best damn boost bottles this side of the mississippi
  7. "ive been waiting my whole life to say this bob..... 420"
  8. supposedly ported aftermarket carbs or stock ones with tors removed someone is gona jump all over you for this , u know how it goes !
  9. yea, i bet george bush himself sat down and signed the bill that said "no more 2 strokes" ! we know everyone hates bush, but next your gona be posting links of "loose change".. get real
  10. i had the exact same conversation with a friend last night, we are sitting at valero and hes fillin up for like 2.06 , then the exxon like 1/4 mile past it, on the same side of the highway, is full of people all gettin gas at like 2.15..its always like that,. maybe because of dunin donuts bein inside and since everyone somehow blamed george bush personally for the gas increase, will everyone know thank him for the prices getting cut in half.. ?
  11. i got a few round files and rasps out in the garage
  12. nope prices same on website too... they got out of control and yea ive always wondered how much it cost them to produce one of those 5 pound catalogs and mail it too, seems like a huge waste of money to me, just like the government mailing out millions of letters just to say "your stimulus check is on its way".. not that dumb, but almost.
  13. wouldnt +3 arms with less of an offset wheel be better than +2 with deep offset rims? you want the wheel as close over the center of the balljoints as possible right?
  14. a flat tank, that you partially sit on, while ratchet strapped down? id rather run out of gas..
  15. youll need at least +3's ,, +2's and stock rims will put u a hair below 48 so i guess +3's and stock rims should put u about 50"
  16. leave all 6 Hd springs.. the tusk HD springs are not very stiff at all unless of course you are built something like dustin diamond back in the saved by the bell days, you wont even notice once your riding
  17. yea mine came in the mail the other day i noticed that, compared some random things i bought last year, everything went up, some items more than others, some went up quite a bit
  18. 2.15 for regular 2.50 for 93 3.00 for deeetzel
  19. screw them all.... should be couture VS fedor.. thats the fight even couture was saying he wanted, impretty surei ve seen an interview somewhere on the internet where couture was like .. "why am i fighting brock lesnar...whos he??" haha on a side note, mir and nogeura both fuckin suck HORRIBLY at soccer, that was so pathetic to watch haha, especially noguera being rom brasil.. mir sure is a shit talker, i hope hes just jokin around though or hes a big douche, talkin about how hes stronger faster, better at everything... dana white was makin fun of him pretty good and was so true, mir wouldnt even mess his hair up to stop those PK's in the coach challenge, hes a pretty boy, too cool for school it seems like, i hope hes just playin around and playin it up for the cameras or i dont like him
  20. him and pelosi are already aware of this, thats why they want your guns and ammunition too
  21. yea, good point, how the hell does lesnar get to fight couture? i never even really thought about it like that and how the fuick are they gona calll lesnar VS couture "the biggest fight in MMA history" .. what a joke.. cant wait to see it though
  22. absolutely NOT
  23. lesnar could very easily overwhelm him with plain brute strength, but he doesnt know how to finish a fight or knock anyone out, he just mounts them and controls them hes used to pinning people, not breaking their faces, he looks like a first year highschool wrestler out there when he gets someone down, lookin to the coaches like WTF DO I DO NEXT?! haha... , he doesnt do any damage, i sure hope old man cotoure knocks him the fuck out, imagine that, bigg ass lesnars and that huge head gettin dropped like a ton of shit, would be great to see,
  24. your right, junie is a homo, he needs a reality check from the carpenter guida or huerta or someone like that.. shut him the fuck up quick
  25. our fearless moderator, haha
