    Make some real power, just cuz?

    Bummer. Looks like its a lot more money then I initially though. Might be a better value for me, to put a dirt bike or motorcycle engine in it...

    Make some real power, just cuz?

    What would be an example of a good pipe to run with this setup? being the crank at $170 and the porting free, I figure the pipe would end up being the most expensive thing. I have a DG pipe hanging in the shed that I got for free.... I figured its way better than stock atleast.

    Make some real power, just cuz?

    I'm just wondering if someone has any experience with a ported stroker, and how they feel it compares to stock.

    Make some real power, just cuz?

    Hey guys. I bought a mint 2002 Blaster for $850 not to long ago and, owning a Banshee and a KX 500, I quickly learned that they ain't as fun now. But when your 14 coming off a Yerf Dog 90cc, they kick ass. Now, this thing handles great, fun to fling around, and generally a wheelie machine. So...

    YZ400 Blaster...

    Hey guys sorry for the late posts I have been working on it and researching for the past few hours. @Larry's Shee, the mounts are solid, a little ugly cause nobody painted em and they got surface rust, but they are good solid welds. I have a coat of primer and rust stopping paint that are going...

    YZ400 Blaster...

    Hey guys. I have always worked with stock blasters and some race blasters for years but I figured it was finally time to go big or go home. I bought myself a Yamaha Blaster with a YZ400 motor in it... complete other than clutch cable, brakes, and silencer for just $275. It needs front tires...

    Brake cable holder/barrel on foot peg

    Hey guys. I am working on rebuilding a blaster that was missing a few parts but luckily I have enough parts to open a store! I was looking at the brakes and noticed that there should be a small barrel shaped thing on the foot lever for the cable to connect to so the lever can pull it but it is...

    SO many colors!

    Okay thanks! I'll check em out tomorrow. A quick update, I'm almost done with the Blaster, just needs tranny oil (I'm using 10W-30) and then some premix because I did the oil blockoff kit and the brakes installed. I'll get a startup video tomorrow. The kick starter isn't springing back up so I...

    SO many colors!

    Huh, I wonder if mine are factory purple. The paint is professional and looks factory, plus the entire rim inside and out is purple. Maybe I have a set of Banshee purple rims for it...

    SO many colors!

    Huh, I have a set of rear rims painted exactly in that shade of blue/purple sitting in my shed I got off ebay a while back. Did you ever sell a set? I might get them fitted with tires and use em on my bike if I do go purple and white

    SO many colors!

    Did it look something like this? I don't have the front fenders on it yet but those will be on when the bike is finished. I have a nice set of blue pegs too!

    SO many colors!

    I don't have olive green.... I guess the main choices are red, white, purple, blue or a mixture of any or all of them. I am running the stock 200cc motor, I believe the motor is a 2002 and the bike is a 1998, but I would have to check.

    a good reason why to port your jug rite

    Before you put the engine back together, if you didn't already, bypass the oil pump. That could be one of the reasons your top end was like that when you pulled it, oil pump was failing and it was running lean. They fail and when they do its not just a cheap oil pump you have to replace, its the...

    SO many colors!

    Hey guys, I have been working with small engines for about 10 years now and my first quad was a blaster. Ever since then I have bought and sold many blasters and have enough spare parts and frames to build atleast 3 more. Right now I am redoing a bike that I bought from a few drunk 20 year olds...
