Hello from Portugal

[webmonstro]

Hi all
My Name ids Nuno and iv been lurkin here for a while and got lots of info on blasters

Been riding street and dirt bikes for years but this will be my first atv, in the past i've had dt125lc, a yz 125,xt 600, kx 125,kx250. Now i got a XJ 900 and a xt350

So finaly going to get my 1st atv next weekend
Its a 01 blaster
the guy said he blew the motor a year ago , got it rebuilt and did only a few rides since. He said he fell and broke a shuolder and dicided to sell
It's got a fmf pipe but the stock muffler.
How much difference would a fmf can would do?.
It's got a hidrolic rear brake. and apart from that it's stock.
Anyway a guess i'll get help if i need it from you guys !
bye
( BTW sorry for the crappy writing)
Nuno

Welcome to the forum

Thanx all for the warm wellcom
As for pix , only next week as i ill be picking up the bike next weekend.
Still don't know if i'm going to keep the oil injection or pre-mix it.
The current owner said he blew a motor at wot on the street racing a trx400
could have been the oil pump that faild?
anyway he seemed to be honest about it having it rebuilt so lets see if i get lucky
Bye for now
Nuno

Welcome.

You know what they say about pre-mixin; if you ain't mixin' your gas, you ain't goin' fast.

Hi
Well finaly got some pics aof the blasty
Got to change that headlight, the stock one is uglier than me!!

I got a free bumper from a friend who sold the quad before installing it,
but it's for a KTM so i'll have to mod it some how to make it fit !

Hi all
today did a small upgrade to the bike:

Instaled a new bumper:

it's for a ktm (but a got it for free so i guess i can't complain !)

Had to fab a adaptor plate for the top mounting bolts

Bottom mount lined up nice , just had to drill some new holes

Still have to get some new bolts (longer ones)

bye for now

Thats a nice piece of work you done to get that bumper to fit

 

[fioz600r]

welcome to the site bro.

 

[BLASTER POWER]

kwl bumper!
will you be riding that on the street over there???

 

[webmonstro]

Yes i do ride it on the street (but i prefer the mud!!!)
Here in portugal just about all quads are street legal .
you Just have to get insurance and have a drivers licence
Up to a few years ago most quads were sold as agriculture machines
( like tractors ) so you could ride them wth a car licence but you had a limit of
40 kmh speed limit but rarely you see speed traps below 50 kmh (in city limit) around here anyway, most are on highways
Nowadays the quads are sold as quadricycles ,still street legal but you do need a motocycle licence.
Insurance here is cheap also ( don't know yet as i haven't got it ) , but for my other bike (Yamaha 900 ) i'm paying 132 euros per year.

bye
Nuno
