dave5.0 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Truth be told I probably have another whole bike hiding in there. I've got 2 more frames and some front suspension, rear dog-bone, 2 rear shocks, 2 steering stems, radiator, etc etc. Well when u decide to clean house and get rid of that "junk" send it my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Well when u decide to clean house and get rid of that "junk" send it my way You come and get it and you can have any of the spare junk you want. On a side-note... The twister beast fired up in 3 kicks this evening. It will be a 100% complete bike, ready to ride tomorrow by lunch. From a pile of parts in the back of my shop to overdose's new 4mil twister dune bike in 2 weeks.... not too bad. - Jared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed350x Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Here ya go man. Just add fluids and she's ready to ride! Not bad for a bunch of random spare parts. Just took a couple cases of carb cleaner to get the shop grime off of everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 4mil 115rod hotrods crank with maxloads on both ends small-block twister 71.5mm bore aggressive dune port by Kevin @ HJR Vforce3 reeds Billet intakes 33mm PWK's set up on methanol (billet bowls on the way) Shearer SB SF IF's w/ FMF Silencers +4 swingarm pingel straight-cut gears billet basket direct drive lockup / cover billet water impeller transmission by BigRed350x lightened flywheel adjustable timing plate front-mounted CDI & drag cut harness 21x12x8 10-paddle extremes Lots of misc stuff... Should be a 90-100hp setup on methanol all dialed in perfect. Set up safe for riding the dunes it should be around 85-90hp pretty easy. The hoops on the foot-pegs are for a passenger he might have on easter weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decon Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Looks good man, lets see that thing in action. I've always been curious about how a small block twister would run, nice alternative to the almighty "cub". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overdose Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 It should be fun to say the least. Looks like we are gonna try and run it this weekend on sunday at the little test spot just make sure everything is in proper order before heading to the dunes next weekend.

Why the alky over race? doesn't that limit your range in the dunes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Real nice! Why the alky over race? doesn't that limit your range in the dunes? Cooler engine temps, more power, cheaper... just get an over-size tank and you're back to normal ride range. Race-gas sucks wang. I wouldn't touch that crap with a 10ft pole. Plus there are methanol tanks out on our dunes and if you get in a pinch you can fill up at those tanks, just carry some 2-stroke oil with ya in the camel-back. Its not the highest quality stuff in the world, but it would get you back to camp. My dune bike normally carries 6+ gallons and I can ride father than a stock bike on pump-gas.

I've always been curious about how a small block twister would run, nice alternative to the almighty "cub". I might go with him on sunday and take the 485 cheetah out for a test-ride. If not, then we will definitely have plenty of video on easter weekend of this twister and my cheetah running together. Overdose does have a HUGE weight advantage over me though. But my cheetah's chassis is a lot better set up than his is. We will see.... - Jared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
