  1. I hope you ordered my parts before you started drinking. lol
  2. One would simply work against the other and you'd get horrible, if not absolutely NO performance. There is no perfect solution to the top end vs low end debacle.
  3. Thats probably your only option at this point. We've had to do shit like that at the shop when a tap breaks off in an expensive part. Rather than junk the part we go to a shop that can weld something onto the broken piece of tap, then we spin it out that way.
  4. Here's one from last summer.
  5. LOL I don't know how this happened, but last month, about the last time I was able to work on my project bike, some how as I was welding and die griding, I called my own cell phone from my cell phone and left me a 7 minute+ message of me grinding away, swearing, etc. The phone was unlocked, and in the front of my pull over...I can't figure out how the hell it dialed its own number..... I had no idea either until later that day when I notice I have 1 unheard message. I listen to it then I'm sitting there wondering who the fuck left me this buzzing grinding noise on my phone...then I hear me swearing and bangin on stuff.. HA!
  6. LMFAO Been there, this week even. My wife is constantly telling me "Call my cell phone with your cell phone, not the shop phone, I'm outta minutes." WTF? She's borrowed my phone for hours before because her phone was out of minutes. Now I keep it hidden.....I need to use it every now and again, and I hate looking for it. Where's my cell phone?? I can't remember....it might be in my car or in my purse. Its not in your car, where's your purse? I dont know. It might be in my car.
  7. Its normal. Banshee frames from the factory look really fucked up.The front and rear dont seem to line up, not symmetrical AT ALL!
  8. Good luck with that. It just wrenches my guts to read the words "dune" and "closure" together in the same sentence. Dont kill the bugs or the weeds, but go ahead and starve your wife to death.
  9. What was his definition of race? Take his ass racing in a straight line.
  10. Lookin good! If I would have seen this earlier I'd have told you in the first pictures you have the axle on the wrong side. See you got that figured out. Im at the point now where I can't decide to build a another trailer or just go buy one.
  11. What ever it is, I went from a 310 main at about 4800 feet to 410 main at Dumont.
  12. I agree. Out in the dunes when we jump, we can't always find a down hill landing, and have to land flat. Its rough as fuck, even though we are only getting about 4-6 feet of air, if that. Down hill landings though.....Makes it nice even if I do have stock suspenders.
  13. I think they ought to throw him in the mix. Toss him in a cell, but make sure there isn't any lube available.
  14. I agree... It makes me wonder why they would want to do that, since there isn't technically any riding spots in Conn. At least thats what Walts told me several times. The people that come up with that shit amaze me time and time again. They should out law alcohol, butter knives, electricity, traveling in cars, peanut butter, and horses since they can all be dangerous. While they are at it, outlaw lightning since its both dangerous and destructive. OOO Outlaw huge snowstorms that knock out the power for weeks on end and reek havoc on the citizens. That'll go over well too. Or, how about they pull their fat heads out of their fat asses, take a few clean fresh breaths of air and realize that people need to have recreation other than spending time at the country club, smoking Cuban cigars and talking about the S&P, and how they might be buying another yacht for fucks sake. And yes...any state can become a "blue" state if you let it. You have to become very proactive in matters that interest you, or affect you, whether you are for or against it, no matter the political affiliation. And Loco, I don't think killing is illegal...at least here... because they keep putting up laws to prohibit packing a concealed handgun into specific buildings. They don't want you killing with a concealed handgun. I guess killing someone and having it in the open is okay, and perhaps using a crossbow is okay too... And everytime there is a shooting they want to ban the gun, because its the reason someone died. I get all confused in those situations about whom to blame for my actions.
  15. HAHA I agree. Its like blaming the car and the ditch when your wife runs into one at a high rate of speed.
  16. Brass?? What fucken planet am I from?? Did they come stock??
  17. Yeah, what he said, except worse imho.
  18. And if you want to go from worried to fuckin insane, go to the Yamaha shop and ask how much for some foot peg bolts.
  19. I'm thinking you're right. THere is a guy at the beginning of the street by my shop that rents out quads. He has a few Slowzuki 400's that they run up and down the street everynow and again, and they are kind of....sluggish. I'm not doubting you coudln't make it fast...just in the stock trim they aren't the quickest bike I've ever seen.
  20. The stock yamaha bolts aren't anywhere near grade 8. Soft pos cheap bolts. Get some grade 8. I sell them with my billet pegs, and I haven't had a problem yet.
