  1. Maybe DEADBEAT can do a little something for this guy……..
  2. Wow, you know I'm really kinda taken back by your comment. I've never really had any issues with what you have to say. Usually I'm in agreement with your points of view. I'm really stunned you amped up the volume here over nothing. Maybe you have some kind of issue with Glenboy that predates this topic... My "Garbage observation" is nothing more than a summary of the recent facts. Alba joined in November of 2013 as a site sponsor with Patrick at the monitor to be the voice of Alba here to prepare to promote the release of some new A-arms. First he data mined every old thread he could with the Alba name in it. Then he chimed in on more than a few old posts with some circa 1990's advice and opinions. Then came the search for a tester for the new arms. Then came……Nothing. Just got the new arms on the test bike and hasn't even logged on since Dec 30th. Meanwhile other site members are still bitching about it taking months to get the right set of ball joins shipped for the arms they bought….. I'm not really sure how summarizing a situation is a "garbage observation"…. NOTE: This is an ALBA experience post and even the site owner is in here talking up Fireball Racing products. So why are you worked up about "Bashing a site sponsor"? Looks like more than a few actual customers have chimed in with issues they have had in the past. I'm well aware that ALBA has been around for a long ass time. So has CT racing and Trinity. But we all know that times change and there is always a new contender for the title. We have site sponsors like ATV GALAXY and REDLINE RACING too. (companies that will have stuff to your door so fast you'll think you ordered it from Jimmy Johns) Any issues with product and they fall all over themselves to solve it. If ALBA is such a great site sponsor…..why are YOU addressing these comments instead of Patrick? Now as for the whole blowhard, long winded, 300 word response, internet hero wannabe comment…….Be original. You're not hurting my feelings with your short hate filled tweet length comments. My nickname is Windy and I'm totally fine with that. ( I'll talk your ear off in person too.) I'll post as many words as I want. If that hurts anyone's head too much they can just scroll to the next poster. You don't wanna believe any info I share…..treat me like Wikipedia and verify the data yourself. As for ALBA……I'm not really all that amped up about yet another $400 set of A-arms hitting the market. I can find A-arms from PLENTY of places. (Heck, Metal Tech built me a single replacement A-arm and had it chromed and shipped to me in less time than it's taken ALBA to fix that dudes mismatched balljoint problem!) Now maybe if ALBA actually releases the Nerfbar design that Patrick was talking about I might have to give them a chance at my business……but until then, I don't need any boost bottles or graphics kits with ALBA all over them…..So I'll just order everything direct from Parts Unlimited.
  3. ^^^ what the fuck? JESUS.........talk about over reacting to a comment. Nothing he said is incorrect and you offered nothing relevant as a rebuttal. Drunk posting?
  4. ^^^ Too thin skinned to be military. I was referencing his turn around time. There are members here who LOVE Jim who have been waiting a LONG ENOUGH TIME for parts from him that they have fallen out of love. So toughen up butter cup. If you feel disrespected by a little shoot self smiley face…..you're one of the Biggest Democrat Pussies I've run across in a LONG time. Sorry you were so intimidated by that. Now go home and get your shine box!
  5. He's having his top end done as we speak. (According to TKJ421) So Maybe when he finally gets his top end, he can speak to the quality levels. After all, he's got an unported 421 cub running Shearers right now and he says it's making over 100HP…... As for Jim being a Genius………Wile E. Coyote was a Super Genius. What's that tell you?
  6. I was talking about your top end.
  7. REALLY? Wow so they can custom make them for my motor huh? Very interesting.....please share more details.
  8. He's gonna need more than just the winter..... LMFAO
  9. See I toe jew. Leakdown test FTMFW! Now you can go burn it down for the #2 most common reason...........jetted wrong. LOL
  10. They became a site sponsor. Had an employee come on and work the forums. He spent a week commenting on every post. Did some post mining so he could comment on those. Came back to pimp the release of new A-arms. Never had a credible comment in all of it. Got bored and forgot about HQ just like they forgot about you.
  11. Yeah I know he also does powder on rims and stuff for his MX racers. So I think he can get that lined up too.
  12. At 16 you show up with no food, barely enough money for gas to get home, end up borrowing 2-stroke mix and realise you brought a tent and blankets/sleeping bags.....but forgot a pillow and any chairs to sit on. But you brought a dozen condoms. LOL
  13. Best mod for great mileage is the YFZ450 mod.
  14. .....says the guy staying in one of only 2 cabins. LOL
  15. ^^^ X2 Are you building a "Drag Bike"…..or doing an ethnic rattle can makeover? A Drag bike is not something you drag home, drag into the garage, drag onto a pipe of tires, then break out the masking tape and the Krylon catalog and have at it like your building a New Orleans mardi gras float. A drag bike has to be FAST first. THEN you can make it purty. If your "Drag Bike" can't beat my buddies 65HP Raptor 700….then it's not a "Drag Bike"….it's just a drag. P.S. Got enough light in your work area?
  16. Then you haven't followed many of my posts. LOL Illinoispowersports.com ^^^ Try that. Watch the dune videos. Then you'll know about them. That's my dyno Jay is the owner and he builds all kinds of suspensions. Re-did 2 sets of Works for me, re-worked a factory rear with heavier spring for a +6 arm, builds MX motorcycle suspensions for Arenacross pro's…...
  17. Nobody cares about compression. Leakdown test it before you fuck it up. You can burn down a motor at idle with an airleak.
  18. Illinois powersports can re-work them.
  19. They are USUALLY sold as a set (head pipes with silencer tubes and silencers) ..….so good luck finding a lot of spare silencers floating around for In-Frames.
  20. You KNOW the first 50 responses are going to be "Do a leak check" So….Do a leak check. Then start asking questions. Because if you have an air leak….that was the cause of the first problem and possibly the start of your second problem. it should hold 6 pounds for 6 minutes. If not….find out why. Then get back to everyone with an update.
  21. Any yawl got dem foe weee dirt bikes?………. Comes rides wif us in busy traffic.
  22. Wife keeps saying "NO….Just NO….Horrendous!" My 10 year old son thinks it's cool. So when it comes to taste……...Puerto rican man = 10 year old boy
  23. Looks like a Piñata. Hang that shit up while I get my bat…..
