    Front raising easy

    I was wondering if my back shock was bad. If I go to take off close to a curve my front don't want to stay on the ground so I can go around the turn quickly. This is the first 2 stroke I have had but dang the front just don't want to stay down. I thought maybe the rear shock is too weak...

    What main jet do i need?

    I have a 93 blaster, fmf fatty, power core 2, boysen reeds, +4 vitos key, k&n with no lid at 2000 foot. I am thinking 280 but I don't know. I just rebuilt it and it still had the stock 230 with those mods. I have not started it yet because I don't want to heat cycle with the 230.

    Case leaking air

    Ok so I got the reed cage to quit leaking and now the case is blowing bubbles, right under where the crank goes. Should I tear it apart before I order seals and check the bearings/crank (probably)? The guy supposedly put a new crank in it too, but he didn't know what he was doing, look at all...

    Newbie help please!

    Ok so I thought I got a good deal on my blaster. It runs really good when warm, but I found a major problem. I bought a compression tester and leak down tester. I done compression test with throttle wide open and it only gets to 60psi, with throttle closed is the same (I was just wondering...

    how long to warm up?

    This is my first 2 stroke in like 30 years. When I first got my blaster, it was a fresh rebuild and ran great. Now, it seems when I start it, let it warm up a little and take off, it don't want to build the rpms. It is a lot colder now. After a while it gets better but its kinda like a main...

    Does anyone know if it will work. I bought the grizzly for the plastics and wheels. Only the front wheels will work because the back are dished way in for the IRS. Anyway, I got to thinking about putting the Kodiak 400 engine in the grizzly 450 frame because of the IRS and it a very good...
