  2. ya i too have had problems with triity racing. they higher dumb shits who just want to sell you stuff. they talk a good game but you can get totaly different jetting info from 5 different guys. i had 1 too many problems with them over the years, so i dont call them for anything. cascade on the othere hand is awesome!. chris @ cascade takes good care of me so they are getting my business now.

  3. i called ims myself about this a year ago and they said the same thing. a small amount of fuel goes threw the plastic, which ruins the adhesive on the decal. thats why race fuel is stored in steel containers vs plastic. ims told me that you can paint the tanks but all the fuel has to be out of the tank and to leave it outside in the sun for a day or so, that way all the vapors are totaly gone. then paint will stick, if you try to paint with fuel in the tank it will end up failing. i gave up and left the decals off.

  4. the stock is like 3.1 or 3.2 somethin like that. as far as i know the next step up is the 4 gallon tank. you cold get one of those huge 6 pac racks that hold a 1 gallon fuel can. but those look a little gay. ive seen little reserve tanks for dirt bikes that mount on the rear fender or some even attatch to the front handel bars. the problem is that theres just no room under the stock plastics to increase the size. the 4 gallon goes out width wise and a little higher. it wraps around the radiator cover too, this is where you gain the extra gallon.

  5. ya, im not familar with laker plastics but with the stock ones you have to ditch the stock gas tank cover. so i would assume thatt you would have to cut them to make it fit.

  6. I would say that besides installing a pancake bearing, you can also put in a new ball and rod as well. Just to play it safe. I know RagunCajon put in the pancake bearing, but the ball and rod had imperfections. It ended up welding anyways.

     

     

    what all is involved in doing so, do you have to split the cases to change out the pancake bearing rod and ball? wheres the best place to buy these?
