    What is this?

    Noooooo!! Don't throw it all away. That's the TORS switch out of the thumb throttle. The switch and wires are worth less than $0. However, the grommet is priceless. Cut the wires. Slide the grommet off. Fill the hole in the grommet with black silicone sealer. Put the grommet back in the thumb...

    Did I just save money? No, I didn't switch to Geico

    Lets start a pool. I'm putting $1 on 27 minutes and 32 seconds ride time till total destruction.

    Yamaha blaster wont start.

    If it fires about twice and dies each time you kick it, it's the TORS. Make sure you disable the TORS on your 03 by connecting the 2 TORS wires together.

    Weird Carburetor

    Apparently that POS is valuable. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1990-KAWASAKI-Bayou-KLF220-KLF-220-Carburetor-Carb-Mikuni-G533-OEM-/371415988805?hash=item567a1e3a45%3Ag%3AVRgAAOSw3ydV09l-&vxp=mtr&nma=true&si=SWV%252BTS55%252FM6OUmKs3xwpu3DRfTw%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

    Blaster 200 03+ no spark (out of ideas)

    I'm not sure you can do this. If you have a 4 wire harness and a 5 wire stator, you can ground the 5th stator wire and it works out the same, but going the other way may be what is causing your problem.

    How do I quickly remove rattle paint from plastics?

    I've used spray oven cleaner before. Won't damage the plastic. Oven cleaner also removes dye pack ink from dollar bills, if you ever find yourself in a situation with bills that need "cleaning".

    Front Wheel Bearing Size?

    I hope you're going to replace the seals too.

    newbie, yz250 swap in unknown year blaster

    No way, no how, not even close to fitting. The Banshee gears and shafts are MUCH bigger. Like about 40% bigger. Also, the shaft spacing on the Blaster is about 1.850". The Banshee is about 2.400".

    There is no way any of the Banshee gears will fit in Blaster cases.

    Parking Brake 03+

    The ASV clutch lever comes with the perch. ASV levers are really nice. Beware though, there are some knockoff ASV levers out there. I bought mine direct from ASV to make sure I received the real thing.

    Need pics of Rear Brake Setup for 03+ Blaster

    Correct, it won't work with your axle and brake hub. As mentioned, buy an 03-06 carrier. That one posted above is priced OK, but the shipping price they have on it is ridiculous.

    Need pics of Rear Brake Setup for 03+ Blaster

    OK, I looked at the pics. The only thing the pics don't show is if you have the floating disc. If there are rubber boots on each side of the brake hub and the hub slides back and forth about 1/4", you're all set with the East Coast ATV bracket. Be sure to tell them you just want the aluminum...

    No spark,

    If you have an 88-02, make sure the 3 wire TORS box under the hood is unplugged and gleefully smashed with a hammer.

    Whats worth getting off of a Banshee that is a upgrade to the Blaster ?

    In reply to everything mentioned above, rear axle only if your Blaster is 03-06. Otherwise you need an 03-06 Blaster carrier, Blaster/Banshee brake hub and hydraulic caliper for it to work. Front spindles only if you have aftermarket A arms with tapered stud type upper ball joint. Otherwise you...
