    Swing arm or wheelie bar?

    A longer arm would make it harder to tail end as the weight would be centred further forward. A wheelie bar will stop it flipping over altogether. I wouldn't think a longer arm would make much difference for dragging except for stability.

    2inch Wheel spacers.

    Also, Alot of people recommend spacers as a cheap alternative to an axel or wider A-arms, which is sensible. The ones I'm looking at are like an extra HUB witch bolts to the existing hab and has studs on the outer end. One's for sale on E-bay are just lenghtened studs? Whats the difference...

    Thanks Peeps :) I'm a bit older and bigger than most blaster riders, so any extra track will be beneficial. I got some slighly bigger tyre ands hope thats going to make it a bit softer/taller. And I recond my brakes after my first ride. I'm still on drums at the front but got rear hydro's...

    2inch Wheel spacers.

    What is the general opinion on 2inc rear wheel spacers? Is it worth while? I run 9inch rims and 20 or 22 inch tyres. A pair have come up for sale and they seem like a good idea. I do a lot of trails and find I need more clearance for obsticals etc...

    Mine just died like this too. I had spark to begin with, and now I don't. I just changed the coil over with another one from another bike, and a new plug and still no spark. The TORS was already unhooked, and it fired once or twice and then "puff" backfired. Got fuel, and cant get the...

    Rear Brake Assembly???

    Just coming back to this, I dissasembled my caliper and got the piston moving properly, just a little tight, lubed it up fully with brake fluid and pushed it back and forth half a dozen times, probably over worked it a little but owell it's better than before. Took the Caliper into my guy...

    XR250RE shocks -Buying.

    Would anybody suggest me buying a pair of these? Could anyone take a look at the link please? The ones for sale are really cheap and the rebuild is not a problem. As a rear shock it would be almost 40mm shorter than what I have in there already. (I think I'm stock now. yellow spring...

    Can someone explain/decrypt Yamaha Parts listings

    I'm looking into parts for my 96 (approx not sure) and may have to order OEM, or order late model parts, that my dealer MAY stock, but probably won't understand anyway X( After comparing parts listing's I find very little differences between 96 and say 06 parts and need to know what is...

    Rear Brake Assembly???

    I have the exact same problem. Mine has "Home Made" Brake pads in it, and the disc is a little chewed. I bled them out and checked to see what was up, the Piston Hardly moves when has rust around the rim of the slave. The master works fine and push's fluid through. Now what? Should I order...
