    RM / Ricky Stator - Do ANY of them work???

    Yeah, I know this post is ancient BUT I finally sent back the stator to RM and they said the polarity was reversed and they're sending me a new one. My symptoms were identical to what ikilledcased states above. Quad will idle but not rev. How the polarity could be reversed is beyond me. I've...

    Help! Shock Identification...

    I'd say we have a match! I'll send PEP a pic to see what they say but I think it's definitely an earlier version of the same thing. Thanks Awk!

    Help! Shock Identification...

    Does anyone have any idea what brand of shock this might be? I sent pictures to Works Performance they said not theirs.. It's seems to be a high-end shock - has a 9", 2.25, 350 lb Eibach spring on it. It measures about 15" eye to eye length. Any guesses??

    4 wire stator on an '03 and later Blaster

    Is it possible to run a 4 wire stator on a Blaster that has the newer CDI and the 5 wire setup? Just wondering if I can swap complete motors without changing out the stator.

    RM / Ricky Stator - Do ANY of them work???

    Sounds like they should be "class actioned" out of business and forced to reimburse people for a known defective product.

    RM / Ricky Stator - Do ANY of them work???

    I posted a previous thread on these stators and I know to stay away from them but I'm starting to wonder in anyone has gotten one of these to work on a pre-03 Blaster? I keep reading posts where people install them the machines won't rev. I'm wondering if it could be related to something like...

    RM Stator - air gaps

    Yup, it was the stator. With the stocker back on it runs fine. It looks like there's still some clearance issues so I'll do some more grinding and measuring to see if I can figure it out. And I agree... RM Stator = JUNK. Stay away!

    RM Stator - air gaps

    I installed a higher wattage RM Stator and now the bike bogs right off idle. It'll start and idle but as soon as you get on the gas the bike just dies (boooog what it sounds like). I've been all over with jetting, and I'm certain that it's not the issue. The stator however, was a poor fit...

    Tranny mod - 6th gear from a Raptor?

    I ran across a post where someone was talking about swapping out 6th gear from a Raptor (660?) presumably to drop the final ratio. I've searched but haven't found anything else about it. Does anyone know if this is a doable mod? We do some fairly long road rides in West Virginia (yes, all...

    Hot Rods +4 Cranks for $135!!

    Just to close this out... I received the crank and mounted it up to see how deep the cuts needed to be. It could definitely be done with a router but as Ken was stating in the previous thread, the walls would be razor thin, particularly at the counterbalance cut. I already have several cases...

    Hot Rods +4 Cranks for $135!!

    Does anyone have a guesstimate for the depth of the cut for the trenching on a +4? I'll get a carbide bit with replaceable guide bearings but I'd like to be in the ball park so I can get as close as possible on the first try and then inch up to the 20 thousandths clearance that I need. I...

    Hot Rods +4 Cranks for $135!!

    Use this search string "yamaha blaster stroker 4105" to pull up a few of the listings and sort by lowest price + shipping. I selected the place with the closest location and best reputation. Here's one of them, but right now I see three listing all with the same price and free shipping...
