Testing pics

So, we went up north riding this weekend, and I wiped out pretty hard and bent my handle bars and one of my front rims. its pretty bent. Anyone have experience with aftermarket rim? I like that the factory ones are super light. I dont want a heavy rim thats going to hurt my performance...

picked up a new go pro black a few weeks ago. here is my first vid. I didnt edit it or anything like that... its kinda long. but this is my neighborhood. deer ran out in front of me and some turkeys. nothing real fancy, just a first vid. at the end you can see our jumps and climbs. my...

so what is the deal with the cheap mounts and plastics on the 400. I love the fourwheeler, but the plastics are falling apart around me!!!??? WTF? gonna call the dealer and see if they have some bolts in stock (lost them on the trail). or on the highway on the trailer. they flop all...

I cannot for the life of me figure out why. BUT, my best freind that I grew up with (I am 30) since we were like 8 told me that his step sons "new" bike would beat my 400... ITS A CR80R. Its a 92 model I believe. it is piped, but we have no clue what else. we went riding and had some...

ITS BEEN A WHILE! HI GUYS! I finally moved back to michigan. ANYWAY. more on that in another thread. we took advantage of being back in michigan! :D So, my blaster blew up on me. I bought a blaster on clist a while back and pulled the engine and put it in mine. well that didnt last...

my new blaster (06) is making some noise... not sure. at higher rpms sometimes I will hear a "slap" or something. at first I thought a tool dropped off the bike or something (was working on carb). the other day it was raining so I took it out "drifting" on the black top. and I heard a...

one of my customers has a 06 white blaster with red frame for sale. If I can get it for 1100 is it a good deal? has good compression. good spark, but carb is dirty. is this an ok? want to get it for my wife. not sure if she will like it or not over her bear tracker (probably sell the...

I have my engine tore all apart, and need to put a new top end in it. crank seems ok. no play up and down... minor heat marks, but I hear that is normal (on crank)... Anyway, I took my jug to the machine shop. they checked it and said its 2.260 right now. go one maybe two sizes up on...

I am looking at parts to order. BUT, I dont understand a few things. like, my jug needs to be honed. I was thinking of doing it myself. But, how will I know what size piston to get? should I just take it to a machine shop? Second. I think I should replace the crank. It has some...

I pulled my jug off this weekend because at higher RPMS it sounds like an internal rattling going on... The cylinder could use a honing and the piston is scored pretty good. But how much slop should the crank and piston have? the crank has some side to side play, and it also has some...

Ok, here is where I have gotten the bike to. It will start choked. After a few seconds half choke it starts rev'ing high. So I turn choke of and it wants to stall. SO, I keep it running, and for a few minutes it will backfire a time or two (just a little fart nothing real bad). Once...

I need some help guys... I have gone through this bike. I have checked the reeds (they are in great shape) ensured no leaks around the reed cage, and gone through, and cleaned the carb 3 times... I unplugged the tors, and actually replace the throttle cable and physical tors unit on top of...

Why Parents Drink A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished to see that his bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an Envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow that was addressed to 'Dad..' With the worst premonition he opened the envelope with...

I am working on rebuilding my old bike. I have had it since I was 9 (now 25), and eight years ago before going into the military I let a freind ride it while I rode my dads big bear, and he rolled it in a northern michigan swamp and it hasnt ran since. sorry for the pics. the wife broke the...
