  1. sweet bike, have you had any chain problems?
  2. anybody in the tahoe area of northeastern california?

  3. sweet bike, the 450 frame is really sweet. If you were to move the radiator to where it is on a raptor or banshee and made the steering stem like 5 inchers longer could you use the banshee front plastic and its much bigger tank?
  4. Thanks for all the advice, I forgot to ask jeff when i was on the phone with him last, but i was looking for a few opinions. I suppose im going to stay at 32 to 1, but it says in the clymers manual 24-1 But it also says to use 10w-30 in the trans and its the klotz super techniplate Fast racing recommends
  5. So im waiting for me new serval cub cylinders, noss head, wiesco pistons and 4 mil crank from F.A.S.T, and Id like some feedback about what i should do for the carbs. >> backstory It was running great (except i never set the idle correctly so it would die if you let it sit idleing) with stock jugs, V force 2 reeds, toomey t5s, and a .030 overbore, but last time i rode it the right cylinder liner broke at the bottom, boogering up the piston (on one side) and the crank and rod bearings and the head and the jug. Thats why i got the above parts. What should i do about the carbs? would i be able to do the first part of a break in with the same jets in the stockers? Should i re jet to really rich before i even try to kick it over for the first time? Any ideas of what jets to start with (and needle position? Or should i spend the last of my hard earned dollars on larger carbs and jet those to my conditions? And if i do that what size/model should i buy? i would also like to start using more oil, in the 24-28 to 1 range (i was running it 32 to 1 previously) will that affect my jet size? ,I am new to this forum, but i searched alot and thats how i came to choose my other parts and where to buy them at, but not much info about the carbs. any help would be great. Bike specs Im running klotz techniplate, 5000 ft elevation, k and n filter with some sort of oval adapter, v force 2 reeds, stock ported serval cub cylinders (68/58 4 mil) hotrods 4 mil stroker crank with the f.a.s.t. treatment, toomey t5s and a noss cool head with 24cc domes, an adjustable timing plate and a F.a.s.t. clutch. Im 200 lbs and i live in the mountains, so there is a lot of hilly trails. but the dunes are only an hour and a half away, so ill be riding those too.
