FULL_METAL_JACKT Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 1 word F*@K Hope u at least get somthing to ride. I feel ur pain tho... (2 years with out shee) M Quote
MotulMonsta Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 Is the quad still under warenty? If it is take it back to the dealer and have it fixed for free. It should be simple to install the 440 kit seeing as it uses the existing cylinder. The stock cylinder has a nikosil coating on it rendering it unable to be bored are honed. Does this 440 kit have the same coating? Your probly going to have to run a larger cam w/ stiffer springs to take advantage of the new found power. It should be a simple mod as far as engine mods go. No ports to worry about so break in should be easy and fast. Quote
bignasty1 Posted March 6, 2004 Author Report Posted March 6, 2004 man i never thought of the nickasil wall. i figured i could just hone it aand put in a high compression piston at the very least. i am sick of that bike. it runs decent and all but it just wasnt worth the cash i shelled out for it. and yeh i still hve the warrenty, which is a peice of crap that cost me 500 bux. it doesnt cover anything on that peice because they said everything in it pretty much is a wear and tear item. its load of shit if you ask me.

locogato11283 Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 hmm, im not sure where to begin. id say get the z fixed and get the big bore kit. Quote
Wassup350 Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 I think if you have the pieces you could get the crankcase welded by someone good, if not shit just get a new one then sell that and get the SHEE running. Quote
brugal Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 That sucks ASS.Get the Z on the road, something is better then nothing... Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 damn nasty that fuckin blows, ive had taht shit happen to me before but not with a z, i said fix it to where its ridealbe and pass it on to the next person for a new shee! Quote
bignasty1 Posted March 6, 2004 Author Report Posted March 6, 2004 yeh there is no way to fix my cases i looked into it. my shift shaft was bent when the broken chain wrapped around the sprocket. so i have to split the cases to fix that. i am not sure how much the sleeving would cost me but this big bore shit is tempting. but when the bike rolled back i mest all kindsa shit up, i gotta get new plastics, steering stem, axle baerings, chain, cases, shiftshaft, 110bux in gaskets since the motors comin apart, a front rim, i needed to get all new tires in the first place so 4 tires is in order, handle bars, brake levers and a throttle assbly.... the list goes on its gonna cost to fix it. ohh well no bike is better than nuthin its just not my choice but maybe i will like it with the big bore or plus the 450 dollar tear down fee that my shop is charging for tearing down a 4stroke. 4 strokes suck when they have to come apart. it only cost me 100bux to have them paut my shee motor back together and they had it done that day that i dropped it off. but not for my z they feel the need to ream me and anyone else who got screwed into buying one of those pigs. sorry for the novel just venting Quote
SICK BOY Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 It sucks not being able to ride,my motor was in pieces for half of the summer last year. Quote
SyNtAxx Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 Hey, Just remember what my mentor 2pac said....." For every dark night there is a brighter day" Suck it up....and start scouting ebay for parts for your ride....then sell it and get the real deal...another shee..... NIck Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 theres a guy in the swap n trade that would take a z for a 88 250r.... Quote
bignasty1 Posted March 6, 2004 Author Report Posted March 6, 2004 yeh i would traid for any 2stroke even a dirtbike since i like those as much as i like quads. but my problems that i still owe alot on the z. so i cant trade it with out payin it off first. Quote
