Just bought a set of carbs/intakes/throttle cables from BB3
gave me great deal , shipped them fast
even pulled them apart before shipping to check needles and jet sizes for me
-
In order for an exchange on the warranty, you would need to send the old clutch or basket back and show proof of purchase with the receipt.
you guys hand out receipts

I've never seen them
We park way in the back
Only time I've heard of cops being there was when problems were caused

Your supposed to have a permit thru Reading Anthracite Company
But 90% of the people that ride there don't have a permit
I'll be renewing mine this year $125/year and they can't tell me to leave
Where in the Lehigh Valley ?
I'm in Hellertown , if you get up early enough you can follow us up

those are cute little balljoints
if I break a tierod I can steal one of those

got a set of 35mm PWK's coming
69mm=2.322"
should I get the Uni-filter for 2.25" or 2.5"
they claim they'll clamp down 1/4" smaller but.....
I'd rather squeeze the 2.25" over if I can, that way I know they're tight
also looking for good guesses on a starting jet sizes
motor is .060" ,192/128, port timing, stock stroke, 7° timing, race fuel
running at 800-1000' elevation , hillclimbing
had T5's , 20cc domes, stock carbs with 27 & 310 jets with K&N, proflow adapter in a cut box
adding Shearer inframes , Noss 17cc domes , VF3 reeds, CEL needles
obviously Foam Pods
who's got a decent starting point ?

I'll be only one that can make the pass without having to lift

depends what you want to do and your budget
if you try and buy everything and bolt together a quad it'll nickle and dime you to death on all the little stuff
most guys with perfect quads are looking to get back every penny they put into it, but it never hurts to throw a low offer and see if it sticks
fuel isn't cheap but check out of your area and plan a little road trip
best bet IMHO
find a basket case that has some decent mods that you can live with or fit your goals for the quad
then make it your own from there
seen too many people that buy "nice" quads just to rip them apart anyways and start from scratch
so find a decent turd and polish that diamond out of it
I like brisket / ribs and beer (as in Lager not this bud light crap !)
-
I haven't rode with an ez-pull but did feel one with heavy springs and it felt nicer then stock springs w/ stock lever
if you don't buy from Dahl I'd like second chance
take your time deciding though
just a thought , maybe a steering stabilizer or shock absorber stem maybe worth looking into
too much for my cheap buttt though
-
oh yeah, not belittling it one bit
sure will be a challenge
just not diving around trees or 10' ravines when your 200' up a hill would be cool for a change
though that's what makes the coalhills a thrill
-
what head and gasket were you running
+1 ^ to what he said
pulling the head wont tell you the whole story to if the jugs are still on
show some pics of the gasket too
was there any coolant in the cyls when you pulled it?
-
WOW , just like that
bet that was a fun ride home
-
in the 1st 10hrs of running did you check your plugs at all?
who did the "top end" and what all was done?
I'm assuming compression wasn't checked after overhaul
-
wayyyyy too low
either hole in both pistons/cracked rings (unlikely) or blew headgaket
which head do you have?
doesn't take much to pull the head (coolant, plug wires and a few nuts)
and/or pull the carbs and reeds and check the pistons
but I'd start with the head 1st
-
Ill be there!! Kick fuckin ass as usual!
will you be signing autographs too that day ?
-
I've been changing setups around on the quad , so I was playing with jetting for awhile
but yeah I'm not fouling plugs or anything like that
-
I changed the caps before with new NGK units on my quad
and run B8ES NGK plugs
but seems like alot of guys out here are always having problems with caps
would I be better off switching to a non-resistance plug cap (boot)
and run BRES plugs since they get changed regularly anyways ?
hate to shorten up my plug wires anymore due to changing caps
-
nice write up
I came across this a little while agonever being inside a 2 stroke before this gave me a great insight to what was in store
tore thru it like a pro
thanks
-
I would like to make it out there one day to ride the coal hills, much more of a challenge than sand from what i hear.
same here but opposite
I gotta get out to the dunes some day
I've never been on the sand (with a quad) but we don't have the mile long runways here
and the rocks can do some damage

You gotta pay to edit... Premium only cha Ching
always about the money

Good deals & knowledgeable guys here

Now it's in a color you can read.

all around port similar to a dune port
lms1977 ported it
He did a TON of research before porting this
with a lot of attention to the details
everyone that rides it / sees it climb , cant believe its a stock stroke quad
good low / great midrange and very responsive
