    Can a wrist pin bearing be re-used

    Came with the original piston too rings already on it and original head. My guess is the guy put a 240 kit on his so he didn’t need the stock jug etc anymore. It actually just came in today looks like it barely had any riding time on it pretty mint. And just saw your other comment jetting is...

    Can a wrist pin bearing be re-used

    Honestly think it was just the crappy Chinese top end kit but lasted a hard 20-30 hours of riding (and got it for free so why not) but i got oem jug, head, piston, etc coming so shouldn’t worry for a good while after this. I was already leaning on the wait for it side because i agree might as...

    2000 Blaster runs good but has trouble starting

    U Unfortunately in my area I can’t seem to find a blaster for less than 1400 even when they are clapped out, this guy is asking 900 but already told me he’s willing to negotiate lower once we are actually negotiating. One guy was selling a blaster that had half spray painted fenders, missing...

    2000 Blaster runs good but has trouble starting

    Ever since i got mine I’ve done a lot to it (in terms of basic repairs and tube ups had to rebuild it once i bought it and replaced a bunch of stuff) so I’d say I’m pretty familiar with blasters at this point, and also a lot of help and good info from this forum. Didn’t get to take a look yet...

    Blaster idles and revs fine in neutral but when it gets put into gear dies

    I just used the kit the guy recommended to me came with new cylinder and piston etc. I’m pretty certain it is the reeds though at this point because i was doing some more reading and it has trouble starting which is another effect of bad reeds, seems like the “high rpm” reeds are in working...

    Hey all i recently bought a Blaster, it’s a 1989 frame with a 2006 engine on it. And I’m new to two strokes so this might be something simple but looking for help. The top end was shot did the rebuild everything went smooth and right now it idles in neutral perfectly and can rev it no problem...
