    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    So I have a GoPro hero 7 black and stack of top of the line parts sitting in boxes waiting for a full rebuild. I feel I would be doing a disservice if I didn’t take advantage and make YouTube videos on the build. I’m an noob to making YouTube tutorials and the blaster/two stroke quads, so...

    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    They are definitely the luxury gem of the whole build. It’s the new legacy series. Everything but the high speed compression adjustment of stage 5, so they are on par with stage 3 yet affordable......ish lol. still better than trying to find a set of used stage 3’s That match bike geometry...

    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    Yeah I’m gonna send em an email about it. I did have to custom order it and tell them to list an arm with those options on eBay so they may have made it in a rush. After waiting so long for a swing arm I don’t wanna have to send one back to them and or possibly drop more on lone star lol

    Float the ground

    For the record.... technically everything on an Bike, automobile, or battery powered for that matter has a floating ground. Floating ground exists in any circuit not grounded to earth. Keeping the circuits independent Is what they mean because if you ground a DC circuit to a circuit that has...

    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    So my swing arm came in It’s a +3 (heavy duty version) with roundhouse carrier and skid plate mounts from the swing arm shop I know the swing arm shop had a bad reputation in the past but when I reached out to ken O’Conner himself for a t-rock on his website he recommended them since he no...

    banshee axle brake question

    True that. Shouldn’t need anything past 1st where you park. Got 5 more gears after that if needed too. My paranoid ass just likes to be overkill when it’s in the back of the truck since I gotta have the tailgate down. If the straps fail 1st would probably start cycling and rolling back slowly...

    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    So elkas ..... anyone familiar with the legacy series? They seem new within the past year. A full set of 3 is under 1k It seems stage 3’s are the preferred on this forum but that might have been before a more affordable and practical series was available

    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    All set on those 3 issues. Ordered banshee petcock Ordered +3 banjo bolt line Going with the 3/8 reed spacer. Seems they come in 3/8 and 1/2. I’m sure 3/8 is enough to clear my carb

    b8es vs bR8es?

    To clarify by power output I meant the bikes 12v supply wattage limit and not the 2 stroke power band lol

    b8es vs bR8es?

    well double the resistance I don’t see a problem cuz you’ll just get more current. No resistance in the cap or plug you’ll get less current but still shouldn’t be a problem cuz it’s gonna be maintaining 12v regardless of the load and voltage determines arch strength and spark. The only factor I...

    b8es vs bR8es?

    So I actually ordered a whole pack of the B8ES for my rebuild and future repairs but was just watching a YouTube video that was saying 03+ call for the BR8ES. I’m an 06 So I guess now I have to decide whether to just get a new cap or order the resistor plugs

    Plastics bolt and thread size

    I bought this because I just wanted a general selection of spare screws. It does say it includes ones for the fenders but they aren’t a stainless steel 250pc Specbolt Yamaha Blaster Bolt Kit for Maintenance & Restoration OEM Spec Fasteners ATV Quad YFS200...

    06 RED, WHITE, AND BLUE

    It’s hard to find a +3 line but I’m also being picky in finding a red one so I’m reaching out to a seller on eBay to see if they can get or make one in +3 Yeah I’ve heard that about the spacers. It will be nice to have that option when tuning it as well. Do you know what minimum size spacer I...
