  1. I have a xrw bumper, plastic skid and swing arm skid. They are based in Europe but maby could be an option? Not what import would be like for you guys but they are reasonably priced. The quality and fitment of everything I have got from them has been excellent and Their parts look very good also. 

  2. Ok cool I get you, my stock carbs are long gone so I’m no help to you on jetting stockers, but don’t go changing jets and needles all at once, do one at a time and don’t drop a bunch of sizes at once. It might take a few tries but you’ll get there.

     You don’t have to buy new boots, the stock boots have projections kinda like  suffers on them, you just have to cut those off flush and it will all bolt up.

  3. Looks like some blow by in the last pic? Or a shadow?

    I would rebuild it. If they are cast pistons, although they are fine and you can run a tighter wall clearance on them, they don’t like to go past service intervals or put up with as much abuse as forged pistons, last thing you want is a cracked skirt and wrecked motor.

    If you don’t know what’s in it or how many hours it has done I would rebuild the top end and inspect everything else. At least then you know what you have and can have confidence in your machine.

    While it’s open clean up that exhaust port, If you want to eliminate or at least greatly reduce that carbon buildup polish it and  use a good ester synthetic oil

  4. Most oem baskets will develop some play, won’t cause shifting issues but best to repair anyway. My basket has about 5mm of play and it isn’t causing issues, but I have a rebuild kit on the shelf waiting to go in. 

    Mis-alignment will still allow shifting in one direction but make shifting in the opposite direction difficult but usually still possible.

    You need to look deeper. Split the cases and inspect imo.

    I just got the one for a bigger sprocket, I wonder if there not as effective, with a small sprocket, on a big sprocket style saver?

    The reason there are different sizes is to prevent the chain from bunching up if it breaks. If there is enough room for the chain to fold back on itself it could potentially get caught up. I would say it is most effective to follow dwrs recommendations but surely a case saver is better than no case saver. I think you would be extremely unlucky if it caused any issues.

    I was going to buy the big sprocket just so I would have a bigger choice of gearing but decided against it as I don’t think I’ll ever need more than a 15t front sprocket

    Maybe I’m crazy I could have swore I saw one. What’s the best case saver out there?

    The best is DRW, it’s a serious bit of kit completely fills the empty space around the sprocket, cheap insurance and piece of mind, a broken chain can cause complete havoc and ruin your day 

  7. To make it look good you’d pretty much need a full set of plastics, tank, seat and the patience and skills to fabricate all the mounting points

    Changing the front will have a knock on effect... The banshee front will not match up to the yfz tank, so you’ll need a banshee tank the banshee tank will not match up to the yfz seat and so on. Very expensive and even more time consuming 

    BUT!

    If you do it you at least you will look fast as fuck boiiii

  8. Gearing for low end will mean you sacrifice top speed. You also need to balance power and traction. Stock gearing is actually quite good for most riding. If you want more low end go down a tooth on the front sprocket or up a couple of teeth on the rear sprocket. There is a gearing calculator in the tech info section
