Well the plan is the widen the front with some spacers and the rear with a Banshee axle. Thats good enough for me. I might go over to Banshee shocks up front once I get to that.I:I
I have searched abit and cant find what I am looking for. Next week I am on vacation and want to dedicate a day to the Blasty. Looking to get everything needed to do the axle swap. I know I need the axle, going to get a 42T sprocket, and some 18 or 20" tires. What else is needed. D I need a hub...
I was also thinking. If I wanted to keep this on a tight budget, I could get a set of 18/10-8 tires for my stock rims and just do the rear axle and sprocket. I believe the 02's also needed the banshee hub? Not sure.
So I want to make this bike fast enough to keep up with the bigger raptors on the track but dont expect it to be a monster. I want it to just be a peppy little monster. HAHA So I have already ordered a pipe kit, ex400 rear shock, and want to address a few other things. Here is what I am...
O.K. back to the tire issue. Looks like I am going to order a set of 18-10-8 rear tires and leave the gearing stock. I am going to llok for an axle again and get the sprocket yb200 recommended.
I bought this Blaster a few months ago and slowly my son and I have been upgrading it. Nothing major, just little things. Well now it is time to address the (21X10X8) ballons out back. HAHA I was going to simply buy a set of used Raptor wheels and tires and decided the keep the stock 8s because...
So just to confirm guys even though it is clear as day, With my 02 Blaster just the rear axle will not work, I need the brake hub as well. Is there anything else I will need to make this a straight swap?
I live in Sunny California and even when it is muddy its not that bad. I want the bike fast from 0-40 I dont care about a top speed. Looks like I am going to run stock Raptop rims if they are 9". I think thats what I want. I might even rock the stock 8"s if I can find good tires for them. Right...
I cant click on that magic green button. HAHA I will look into that. I will post a few pics when I am done. Right now it looks like a completely stock 02 with a sticker kit. HAHA
HAHA You guys f*ckin rock. I was getting ready to post up and see if that top link was an upgrade. Does the winning bidder look familiar:D I won that 400EX shock yesterday. Now it is time to figure out wheels and certainly tires. I also want to get a rear sprocket that will give me more out of...
Nice thanks for all that information. I need to go dig it out of the shed and see what wheels are on it now. They are aluminum if I remember correctly. I need to check size. So what is the differance between the rear sprocket of a banshee and blaster?
Its an 02. I just placed a bid on a rear 400ex shock and have a max bid with shipping at about $35.00 I did a search for a Bansee axel but only found one for $105. I like $35 better. HAHA
EDIT- I spelled Axle wrong haha. Anyways I found this for $50. It is complete with the sprocket and...
Well there you go. I am on the hunt for a rear shock and axel. HAHA. Trust me I know all to well about modding. I got $50K in to a Z06 Corvette. Modding is in my blood. HAHA Thanks for the tips guys I am off to find a shock and axel.
Nice I used rocky Mountain a few times to buy parts for our Bikes but its been awhile. I know for a fact I can make that shock work. I will now be on the hunt. HAHA so the rear is an 8". Thats not even worth keeping. Now I need to find a clean set of 10"s with tires. Does the Raptor use a 10"...
Thanks. Yeah after I did some reading I have found that a 10" out back will be perfect. Now its time to find out what is stock on my bike. If they are 9-10 I might just buy some tires and paint the wheels. Where can you get cheap tires?
After doing a bunch of searching online I came across you nuts. I:I So here I am. I bought this blaster bone stock with a pink sticker on the tank. Tells me a little lady owned her. It has the stock ballon tires and stock suspension. I am not a hard rider but want a nice bike I can tear up if I...
