    melted plug

    i mentioned this before- i think my carb bowl drains when i have it pinned for like 30 seconds, causing it to run lean. well the other day i was riding up a dirt road pinned in 6th for a few seconds when she lost power and started back firing. tried restarting it a bunch of times, ended up just...

    rm 250

    my buddy wants to sell me his 96 rm 250 and buy a four stroke. he likes to putt around so it's ok haha. but he says it needs seals in the forks, something is wrong with the timing (i'm hoping flywheel key), jetting is off, and he thinks it needs rebuilt again although he just threw new rings in...

    my friend mentioned to me this past tuesday about a certain stock he was watching. we discussed it, and i've been addicted to watching certain stocks ever since. i noticed a trend (obviously) how everything came crashing down last oct/nov, leveled out and even gained some, then hit the bottom...

    draining the bowl?

    we own 3 acres. when i rip down thru the yard, slide around the bottom in 3rd, and come ripping back up, it starts losing power fast about half way back up. is it possible i am draining the bowl? i'm hoping to get the 35mm carb on soon, so hopefully that will fix the problem.

    ah crap...

    went to do a plug chop on my not-even-completely-broken-in newly ported and bored jug, shut it off at probably 8k in 6th, pulling in the clutch at the same time as always, and while the motor was reving down it was going CLANK CLANK CLANK. i was like oh man, i hope thats just a product of the...

    banshee v-force 3's

    anyone know if the reed cage from a banshee will fit a blaster? may have found a decent deal on v-force 3 reeds for a banshee, if they'll work that'll cover both blasters :)

    pipes: shearer vs. fmf

    ATTN: Machinists - porting info

    thinkin about doin the transfers and lifting the exhaust. my research tells me that for low-mid range porting, the exhaust should be opening 90 degrees ATDC, and transfers should open 116 degrees ATDC. my math (hopefully correct...) tells me that the top of the exhaust port should be 32.5mm...
