  1. 63 HP 370 long rod bike. +6 swinger, +2 arms, WORKS fronts, re-worked rear, +2 stem w/stabilizer. (I finally have this bike EXACTLY the way I want it....other than more bling to add.)
  2. FFS! Next somebody is going say the stuffers hurt performance......99.8% just talking out their ass. 75% haven't even held a set in their hand let alone TEST a set. But everybody has to say something to look like they know something.........
  3. Judging by the 2"-4" of rain they are getting, I think it's safe to say dust won't be an issue thanks to "Halloween Storm 2013"
  4. It's not "rain".....it's more like "wetting down the track" Nothing like perfect tacky soil for good riding and limited dust. As well as good wet low areas when you wanna go play and get muddy.
  5. Corbitt coming out of the woodwork with his old tricks! This has been going on for YEARS. I think there were PAGES of disputes about him on PS as wekl as here. This guy is worse than Minka....
  6. Well, if the dirt is from 06'….that stain is pretty set in by now. Better sell the bike and start from scratch.
  7. AccuWeather is saying 57 and plenty of sunshine for Sunday. Of course they can't accurately predict the weather for tomorrow….....so anything is possible 5 days out. LOL
  8. That's fine. I'm just saying I did the R&D on the 4's for MT and in OUR testing the A/F ratios were dialed in to be equal so we could get a true comparison. NOTE: That is why I'm always saying go up one pilot size, because the 4's need the extra fuel to get the A/F back in check. Making more power from leaning down a motor is NOT a way to prove power. Making more power after going fatter is proof that more power is being made without dancing with the devil. 4's make more power than 3's both on the top end AND bottom end. They even make more power than 3's that have the stuffer mod done. (Yeah I tested that too.) So say what you want about THIS test......But the 4's are all they claim them to be. And really guys....just we're talking about $200 for some reeds. Nobody is getting screwed either way.
  9. ^^^^^ This kind of disbelief was covered on page one as seen below. vvvvv
  10. LMFAO........I just daylight savings timed my own ass. (I got burnt by daylight savings this past spring and lost an hour of ride time) So I just had that on the brain. I should have just remembered (Fall) back to sleep for another hour vs. (Spring) out of bed, your an hour late. So...........do me a favor and when you get there and find me sleeping off the extra hour at the entrance gate (because I showed up an hour early) knock on the window of my truck and wake me up so I don't end up missing ride time. LOL
  11. Hey everybody, don't forget.......Daylight Savings Time is Saturday night/Sunday morning. So we're loosing and hour of sleep (Fall Back) the night before the ride. Remember to set your clocks the night before......otherwise we'll be riding at 9:00 AM when they open.....and you'll be an hour late!
  12. Don't worry about the costs......Wes doesn't ride, he just buys, builds and sells.
  13. Seriously?............ Seriously?.......... ..........Ummm you're kidding right? No....Seriously?
  14. I wanna turn on that 10 mill Serval before you part the whole damn thing out!
  15. 2- 65HP Banshee's 1- (Shhh ) HP Raptor 700 1- stock Outlaw 525 IRS
  16. There was a test in Hot Rod or Car Craft years ago where they tested all the octane boosters out there. Basically the gist was that the product in the bottle would have to have the same combustable principles as Nitroglycerine for them to boost octane to the claimed levels. As for this product........Race gas is not simply chemicals added to pump gas. This product is listed on their website....but they also choose NOT to list it's MOTOR OCTANE or other important qualities like it's specific gravity. I would steer clear of anything like that. Why do you need the higher octane? What is done to your bike?
  17. You know I'm going.........I invited YOU! You're going to be Wes #2 for this trip. (I'm bringing Wes #1) Plus Bill and Chris will be riding with me as well. Rollin Rino is coming and bringing a friend. Frank the Tank said he was going to try to come and bring a buddy. So it's already shaping up to be a good ride.
  18. Nickisgod ran the IMS 660 pegs and had a whole bastardized set up for foot peg/nerf/healguard/shifter. But it all worked mint and you would never know they were all parts for different bikes. He's not on all that much, but try PMing him and see if he sees it soon. If not PM me and let me know.....I have his number in an old PM or Email somewhere. But my phone is down today, so I can't get you his number right now. His set-up was sweet though.
  19. Then why fly out to dyno at Redline? Why don't you test these pipes where it matters? Find a hill....stack a pile of pipes to test at the bottom...let us know what your butt thinks. When it's all over we'll just all do what you do.....
  20. The Athena's come as cast with some port timings that are pretty steep. It's peaky drag timings as is. But I'll give the win to your combo with your pipes and carbs. Correct tire/gear/set-up will be a deciding factor. Knowing how to ride will be a big help too.
  21. Get the full bike kit from Alloy Bolts (on Ebay)for your new build. Remember....Anti-seize EVERY BOLT. Even the little ones for your plastics. Any bolt that doesn't get Anti-seize....should get blue lock-tite. Also...there will be a few items in the kit that won't work. Don't sweat it. Just stick with the stock stuff for those few items. If you cut the nice labeled bags....you can put the stock stuff in them and tape them closed and have a complete correctly labeled stock bolt kit ready for emergencies.
  22. You're logged onto a website where the object is to read what people post. If you want less words.........block me, or stick to the images section. LOL
  23. Yes YOU are the Juan around here. The one, the only. My family has been here since the Mayflower......no Juan in my DNA. But I DO love me some quality enchiladas!
  24. .........And some haven't figured out that "corrected" settings on the dyno correct the numbers to sea level. So corrected numbers for a motor dyno'd in Denver would match corrected numbers if that same motor was dyno'd in Vegas or Jersey.
