1 - Yes the lock up.. but takes a lot of travel for the rear and id like to be able to have less travel before they do.. 2 - The deal doesnt include MC.. but he selling the calipers for 25 shipped. 3 - I dont think they are fucked but they are original and old.. they dont leak or anything 4 - Thats true.. but man when all of the sudden im on 2 wheels and only see sky, id like to have a better chance to tap the brake and have it come back down.. (happened this weekend lol)

How can I improve the braking on my machine. I feel like I have to stand up on the read brake to get her to respond. I have a few other questions about braking for these bikes. 1. I found a good deal on some yfz 450 front brake calipers. Do these improve enough to notice and will 2005 calipers work on my bike? 2. Will steel line improve response? 3. Is there anything I can do to improve the rear brake? I takes a ton of travel before the brakes engage it feels like.

Damn dude that motor is sharp as hell! Painted.. powder coated.. What all did you do to it

That's a different number than the one I first text from the ad. The first number didn't reply, then this one text me. No pictures received as of now.

Hell this is the town I live in. I should go check it out. Hopefully I wont get robbed.

If imma spend the money id rather do it with a site sponsor. I'll save up eventually.

I'm going to check a lot of things tonight when I get home. Ill report back to all replies then. Going down that far on mains sounds like I might lean it out.. kinda scares me.. it seems to run great everywhere except when you initially get on the gas. But I've had someone say that 330 main is ridiculous with my mods.. soooo iono.. but im gonna test and tune tonight so I'll let every one know how that goes.

Takes a lot kicks to cold start it, also takes the choke. What do you mean by check the reeds.

I have done no needle adjustments.. which way does the needle adj to richen it up.

Jetting issues: http://youtu.be/RkCJC8uChdE Here is a very short video of the issue. I did the carb cleaner thing, nothing happened. I think I might have over exaggerated the "runaway idle" bc I've watched some other videos and mine isn't severe like that. Please watch and help me out. I keep trying to post the link where he video will just show up here and you can click and watch it, but it wont let me.

Gonna try the carb cleaner this afternoon. Thank you guys for all the help,I really do appreciate it.

Clutch cover was on, and the vents are run correctly top my knowledge.. is this incorrect procedure?

This situation kept me up last night. I have to get this figured out. All I want to do is ride... waaah

I'm having a little bit of jetting issues, or an air leak. The bike held 6 psi for 10 minutes though..

Ill get on that tomorrow after work.. It does sound like an air leak, but it held 6 psi for 10 minutes.. ugghhh I don't get it.. but ill def spray some carb cleaner and report back.

It held up to the leak test.. what else can I do

Thank you. Btw, nice bars.

Runs great everywhere except from idle. If its idling and you goose the gas it will bog or go dead. Also when you first crank it up if you hit the gas it will die. Jetting is 27.5 & 330. Air/fuel 1.5 out. I included a drop box link to a video so you can kinda see/hear it. It only does it the first time in the Video, but it usually always does it. Also seems to take a minute to idle down after you hit the the throttle. Check it out. https://www.dropbox.com/s/hwe8mgky81b88dd/20140810_163132.mp4

Hmmm doesn't sound like a bad idea.. got a pic?

I got ya. Well I want to have some done, but I didn't realize it's about 1000.00 for all the plastics. Maybe next summer if I can save some money. Your stuff does look good JD!

Man... how am I gonna mount this thing

I need some.. any of y'all still have them??

Do you put all the coats on back to back, or wait like 5 days like they say on the can.

Soo.. I painted my plastics with krylon fusion. It doesn't look bad at all, but the tone of the color is just matte and blah. It's also not very scuff resistant. Is there anything I can do to make it shiny and stronger?
