  1. I sold my banshee and bought an old ATC with the balloon tires.
  2. Check to see if the air cleaner is over oiled or plugged too. I've seen the same exact things happen to a great banshee that had the air filter plugged. Ran ok up until it got on the pipe then stalled. It would only rap out if you pulled in the clutch. Cleaned the air filter out for my buddy and it ran fine.
  3. I guess mine is set right...I was told .019 lol .001 shouldn't make much different should it??
  4. Oh man. I have a haunted Bosch stapler here on my desk. Its even attacked me. It put 2 staples in my thumb one day while I was trying to re load it. ITS A POLTERNHEFTER!!!
  5. After I cut mine I could see the rocks in the dunes and avoid banging up my Douglas rims. Helped out alot tracking ruts when jumping a dune too. If you get the front wheels off set a bit they can pull into the tracks all of a sudden and then you get launched in the air sideways.
  6. DAMN!! I thought you had to have a leak in your thorassic cavity for a lung to collapse. I'm the furthest thing from a doctor, but I figured if you were all sealed up in your chest area, and you didn't have a hole in your lung they physically could not collapse... I learn something new everyday.
  7. Alot of people use them between the reed block and the carbs instead of between the reed block and the cylinders to space the carbs back a bit if they are using larger bore carbs. This keeps the clutch lever arm from wearing through the bowl.
  8. On the guy cutting his balls off...DAMN THATS FUCKED UP!! On the child molester thing...I have more than one relative that was preyed apon by one of these worthless scurges to society. I think if the evidence is there ( i.e. its not a bullshit claim by someone, because it does happen) the offender should have his dick and balls tarred and feathered, then he should be tied to a stake and burned to death. One of the fuckers that got put in jail only served 6 months on a 2 year sentence because "he had good behavior" in jail. WTF?? OK...he's in jail..what the fuck is he going to do?? Plus he had daily work release, and he would drive by the victims house and honk his horn and shit like call them and leave messages on the answering maching on his lunch breaks from work. Most of the time the victim was at home scared shitless. His Parole Officer said he didn't need to report to the jail during his lunch hour, " 'cause thats rediculous" WTF?? He didn't need to be accountable for where he was at between noon and 1pm. Everyone in my family has run into this guy around town except me. 7 years later and I swear I could kill the guy. Someone ended up spray painting "CHILD MOLESTER" in the street in HUGE letters outside his house though. Still have no idea who did that. Long story short, kill them. I don't believe there is such a thing as rehabilitation with those people.
  9. I have the same question honestly. There is one way to find out but I don't have the cash to do it. Its a gas chromatograph (I think thats the name) The vaporize a small piece of the metal in question and analyze the gas. Then once you did that you'd have to have a heat treater tell you the Rockwell Hardness of the axle so you 'd know how far to take it in heat treat. Theres a place here that does it but I'm not curious enough yet to have it done.
  10. Be sure to get a picture of this 36 wheeled wagon circle. Also, I'm just curious, but what do the truck drivers do when you get there? Are they goin duning too??
  11. HAHA! I like the little kitty cats, but the older cats... oh man... Constantly either shitting in the rose beds out front, or fucking underneath my bedroom window in the summer. You ever woken up to two cats fuckin at 3am?
  12. Shit, you're over complicating it!!! The first time I stripped my banshee I had only had it 5 months. I stripped it, powdercoated the frame, and put it back together with out a Clymers manual. I ran it for another 4 years before I totaled it and had zero problems. Like the others said. Get it on its feet (unless you feel like putting the engine in while its on the ground instead of trying to do it 10 inches off the ground), then do it in steps. Swingarm, a arms, steering stem, coolant system, electrical, and use a torque wrench on the nuts. NOT THE BOLTS, but on the nuts. Take your time, and make sure you've seperated all your bolts n shit so you know what you have used and what you have left. If there is a part that uses specific bolts, bag and tag that shit. Thats how I lost my whole a-arm pivot parts for my project bike. I didn't bag and tag. I just put them some where, and now its going to cost me. I learned the hard way I guess.
  13. The couple of bucks?? I happen to have like 7 of them right here.
  14. If you ever, you know, want to unload that Yoshi exhaust I'll give you a couple bucks for it.
  15. Are you running a Power Commander?? Just curious if you've unplugged it and ran a stock ECM yet. I'm wondering if they are worth the $300.
  16. Does Osama have a pipe design?? You'd never know it to look at the guy
  17. I'm only speculating. My buddys 636 Kawi is fast as fuck, so I can assume a 1000 Suzuki would get there even faster than his 636 would. 152.1 @ 11,000 78.0 @ 8250 with a dry weight of 442 lbs. Thats the horsepower and torque from Sport Riders website.
  18. JESUS!!! What a vision of loveliness.....
  19. Not to mention how fast the Gsxr would get there.....
  20. I feel a little better about my project bike now
  21. From what I remember Zn+HCl will produce hydrogen gas and a lot of heat.
  22. Seriously, the women won't just come to you. You have to go where the babes are if thats what you are looking for. A Maclaren F1 isn't going to just park itself in your driveway one day is it?? Join a gym. At my gym on the Hip-Hop aerobics night, there is more ass there than I have ever seen. Some of them stick around to work out after words. Hell, I met my wife at a gym. I know of about 5 other couples that met at a gym. Of course there is also the potential to just meet people. I didn't intend on meeting a keeper at the gym, and infact was dead set against it. It just happened to work out in my case. There are quite a few assholes at the gym as well, that just go there to meet women that have ruined the whole social aspect of meeting people. Women don't join a gym to meet guys. If you do go to a gym to meet someone, take your time. Nothing will get you shot down quicker than bothering some girl while she's trying to work out or sniffing the bench where she was just sitting. Just work out, have a good time and take a look around. To be honest, the first week I was at the gym I'm at now, I got hit on about 4 times per week, and some of them even asked my wife if she was my wife, or just my girlfriend. lol.... and I'm not even that hot. LMFAO
  23. What size is it?? I can clue you into a few things about PIPE and TUBE. They are 2 different things. PIPE sizes differ from TUBE sizes. The bearing spacer for my carriers is PIPE because of the oddball size. Its EXACT what Yamaha uses. Lemme know what you're looking for, I might be able to look in my catalog and tell you if its a TUBE size, a PIPE size, or if your are fucked (Metric size).
  24. AWESOME!! But, who are "They"??
