  1. If people are interested they will text you on the number you provided. Don't mind Nick, he's the hallway security here.
  2. Me neither. I noticed this post pretty much right as it was done too. Never saw anything but the J Arm one
  3. 35 on a 421 DUALS not single. These are twins meant for two carbs.
  4. I have pictures of DMs with custom heads and also ported water jackets. I looked into this, and also cooling changes before i sold my most recent DM cylinders. I talked to a LOT of builders on here and not. The RZ street bike/aprilla guys have been doing this shit for years with the DM/SS cylinders. If you go on those forums you'll find a fuck ton more information then here on it. Below is a forum that has information on cooling of banshee based cylinders, just used in a motorcycle chassis. These guys have a TON of information on this shit. My profile wont let me search far enough back to my post on cooling a DM. I THINK I had some links/photos there (EDIT thread is deleted). https://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?246083-TSS-RS500GP-(round-3)-cylinder-problems/page23
  5. Reverse the cooling?? Also have you thought about porting the water jackets, and making a head with larger cooling openings?
  6. IMO which doesn't mean shit. They're the best performing pipe short of SHEARER FTW
  7. Just looked, basically nothing on there is stock besides a few things. And even so, that bike as it sits is NOT worth $6500. Again, you can ask whatever you want, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay.
  8. Way more? Absolutely not. You can adjust my price a couple grand and that would be OK It's an ATV, not a classic Ferrari or a vintage painting. Literally hundreds of thousands of these things were made. Sure, a guy can list one for $14,000USD and I'm sure there's definitely an idiot out there who'd probably pay it. But this isn't something that's going to go up in value.
  9. LOL That’s about $10k more than they’re worth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. 1) What's your budget 2) Good luck finding someone to build you a SUSPENDED frame. If you're looking for a drag frame, HOD, Turbo Chassis, GT.
  11. 916's are an extremely underrated pipe. They absolutely rip in trails and open roads.
  12. 100,000,000 hours or 10 seconds. Depends on how well your motor is tuned and how well you take care of it. Check for play on it when you pull it out.
  13. That’s absolutely ridiculous. If a builder makes you buy new cases you need a new builder Anyways. Good luck on this! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Sure, there really isn't a benefit as long as your stock stuff was in good condition. But it's cheap and if you're already in there it's not a bad idea. No you do not need a metal gear. All of those are good. I always like Direct Drive, but Mattoon is good stuff too!
  15. I guess you’re right. We at least have teeth though so it doesn’t sound like our mouth is full of marbles. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. IMO the worst way to contact and ATV or performance shop is by email. Just call or FB message. You aren’t the first guy who doesn’t speak perfect English they’ve dealt with. Shit the dumb fucks from the south us normal Americans can barely understand but we deal with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. There's a builder who did a comparison. They actually found 4" filters made the same power as 10". I can't remember who did it, but I remember seeing it on here.
  18. Wow, I'm amazing only in 2nd gear that much damage could occur. I local welding shop could help with the pipe I'd assume. They can cap the ends then blow some compressed air in Everything else I'd buy new, the a-arm stuff call Roll Design.
  19. Nebraska is warm. Nebraska is also a total shit hole state.
  20. You could get a used set of arms and decent shocks for $800USD, maybe less. I think they're worth it, and I think everyone else would agree..
  21. What's your budget
  22. Hostile? Wow You haven’t seen nothing. We’re all helping and you aren’t listening. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Did you ever think maybe they do this as a financial opportunity? You will not gain value, aftermarket parts don't add much to these things that are already worth little. And with stock arms you won't see much improvement Like I said, buy new or save up money and buy a used setup from a reputable member
  24. Rebuilt every season?!!??! Come on, that's excessive. I have shocks that are 20 years old on some machines that haven't been touched, and that includes 14 year old air shocks that have never had a seal replaced. Being Works is now out of business I'd stick with someone who is still in business. Sure places still have parts, but those are going to need some work. You'll need to put $3-400 into those. You can buy new Floats for close to that
  25. All this fooling around sounds fun! Maybe Claude & Jesse can pick me up on their way down!
