Whats bad is if you ever get a methanol fire in daylight. It burns a nice light blue color and its almost impossible to see in direct light. You just feel this insane hot burning sensation and have to try and figure out where its coming from. LOL!
Yeah, I once saw a CSI episode where someone soaked some guys racing suit in methanol and then when the guy was working on his race car in the pits he set himself on fire, but it was a sunny day so no one knew, and he burned to death...
Oh man,glade everything worked out,and didnt burn down,but that is a funny story...live and learn
Hahaha, sometimes I learn the hard way
Lucky it didnt burn your skin off...A couple of years ago one of my employees opened a truck box in the dark and used a lighter to see... well at his suprise some dumb ass put a gas can without a lid inside of it.... And BAM blew a flame in his face and burnt him real bad.... your lucky bro!!
Yeah, I am really lucky.

I'm going for sure, and I may have a friend coming on his CR 125.

Okay, I should rephrase that lol. I didn't pay much attention to the warning. I knew it was flammable
. and now I know how much! -
I didn't believe the starting fluid can when it said Danger: Flammable. I was working on my Suzuki DR 250 dual sport 4-poke and sprayed some starting fuild in the airbox. for those of you who havent seen the airbox, there is a large hole on the very top facing upwards that goes under the seat. I was looking down above that hole when I turned the starter over and BAM! backfire! A huge flame shot out and I could feel and see it flow over my face and dissipate into the airbox. It kept burning in the airbox, so I yelled "OH SHIT!" and jumped around a little since it was packed in the garage behind two chainsaws and some bins. I ran inside and got a bowl of water, ran back into the garage, and the flames were out. For good measure I poured it in the airbox anyway. Rolled the fucker into the driveway and now its sitting out there. So yeah, luckily I still have my eyebrows and hair. Nothing like setting your dirt bike on fire in your garage to keep you on your toes!

I am in need of tie rod ends all 4 or a set of tie rods with good ends. also looking for a complete engine gasket set. lemme lnow watcha got! thanks guys!

I love how he says "dual carbs" and "dual exhaust" as if its such an uncommon thing when infact every banshee comes from the factory like that. I'm betting stock carbs, stock reeds.

I bought a used big bore top end kit and everything is absolutely perfect, shiny, and you can still see the cross hatching. But, there is damage to the top of one of the pistons. Not sure how it happend, but I need to get a new one. Anyway, they are 68.50mm bore. The cylinders appear to be stockers sleeved with a Vito's 404 kit or something. They are the cast pistons for this kit, not the Wiesco forged pistons custom made for the kit. Anyway, does anyone know what other 68mm big bore pistons would be safe to use for this kit? Vito's wants $63 plus shipping per piston w/rings and $20 for a set of rings. I was gonna buy a single piston/rings for 1 cylinder, and another set of rings for the other cylinder. I was also gonna buy a jet kit from vito's, which would cost me $50. I of course would need a top end gasket set ($30?). If I can find a cheaper set of rings and pistons than the ones from Vito's I would gladly buy those instead.

if no one makes a trade offer soon they are getting unboxed and put back on the 'shee. I can't keep it in the shed forever! C'mon guys, anyone got a duneable?
-
Correction, these are Shearer small bore in frames! They are dirty in the pictures and look much better when cleaned (IE, the pics of it on the banshee taken a couple months ago I posted at the end)
-
If you just leave it on there, you will eventually be redoing your top end because of it. It will sit there wiggling back and forth as you ride and eventually it will crack your intake boots causing an air leak and a topend meltdown!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fine, ill take it off and put in a crossover tube when I install the big bore kit I picked up last weekend
-
These pipes really shine once you clean em up. I took them off and wiped them down but I didnt use any cleaning agent, just warm water. They are currently boxed up and ready to ship.
Pics:
This is on the inside side of the silencer (IE - facing the other pipe). I didn't notice it until I took the pipe off

Hey guys. I am looking for a dunable override transmission, N down 1-5, or m1 2-5 override. I have a set of Shearer DM in frame pipes, they overall in nice shape, they looked great on my Banshee. There are a couple of dings but no major dents. Theres also some weird stuff on the bottom on one of the mid pipes. I can post pictures when I get home from school...
-
GUYS. I got a deal on something I was looking for for a long time locally, so I am no longer looking for a stroker crank. I am however looking for a duneable transmission... I don't know how to delete threads or anything though.
-
boost bottles work great with the purple powerbands. just rejet your valve cams! lol just kidding. yeah one came on my banshee too. i havent touched it yet. i dont think they really do anything. id leave it, i dont wanna buy a crossover tube.
-
Here ya go guys . One note though;
I like to place a socket extension between the lift wheels & lift plate and then release the pressure on the jack. Just keeps pressure off the actual lift.
It's not nessassary but I figure it will last longer without the constant weight on the lift assembly.
Nice tires. I run the same ones on my 'shee now. Man, that lift kicks ass too

Vito's 404 kit. 68.50 mm pistons. 398cc. bore is perfect, ports are spotless (AND PORTED), and rings are excellent. Everythings perfect except some damage to the top of one piston. I can get another piston/rings/wrist pin for $40 on ebay though. I paid $175 and drove 2 hours one way to get these puppies. This outa get me moving along. I am selling my pipes, and buying some other goodies (duneable trans, +4 timing plate, ect.). Check the pics:

I love my Pro Taper low bars on my Blasty. I have Renthals on my 'shee. I also have Pro Taper seven eight's low bars on my Kawi KX. I prefer the feel of the pro tapers to the renthals. just sayin
-
Alright guys. I am buying a duneable override and already have a deal in the works. How do I install this thing? I mean everything, forks, shift drum, all that good stuff thats needed. Does anyone have a link to a tutorial with good pics or a video somewhere?
-
Nice. I knew they weren't stockers. They actually are ported as is. He has the whole top end minus gaskets and stud extenders for $175. I alright got dibbs. I'm picking them up tomorrow. Making a 2 hour trip to get em (and dirt biking). At that price I can afford a duneable transmission to go with those. Or a 4 mil crank kit from Vito's. or bigger carbs. The possibilities are endless!
-
I'm picking this kit up this weekend for a real good deal because the guy moved up to a cub kit. Could anyone tell me who made these cylinders? They are in 68.50mm bore. How many CC's would that be, with a stock crank? Thanks guys!

accidental post - trying to edit the original
-
Well maybe fed-ex is the best way. I have a bunch of old memory foam bed things that go under your sheets. I could cut up some strips and pack those pipes in real right with that stuff. I can't think of a better material!
-
C'mon guys! Someone has to have a duneable override to sell me. N down 1-5 Dunable would make me happy. Anyone?
-
I love bubble wrap. If you plan on using peanuts, please seal the pipes off so peanuts can't sneak inside the expansion chamber. I recieved a set of pipes that were packaged very well but had a few peanuts inside. Took me quite a while to get them out. lol
Sealing the ends - noted lol. I'm gonna bubble wrap the hell out of them and put them in a box surrounded by packing peanuts
Just about set myself on fire

I'm not on fire but I'm definitally blazed
. Just got back from a Red Hot Chili Peppers with my dad and sister and a friend. We got Anthony's drum head from his snare drum, with their logo and some righting drawn on it and the set list on the back! Were a bit high as fuck cause everyone was smokin' some ganja.
