    Blast from the past!

    Haven't posted in here in forever! How's everybody doing?! Kind of fell off after I sold my blaster, but I picked up this kfx 400 the other day and got to thinking how much I missed this forum. Anyways just wanted to say hi and show off my new (to me) ride.

    02 R1

    Didn't know if this was the section I should be posting in but I thought I would start a build thread on my r1 I traded for. I'm not doing a lot to it but it's nice to keep track of what all you have done. The bad: Needs all new plastics as most of the ones on it are cracked or disintegrated...

    Newbie question....again

    Ok I know jetting questions get redundant, but my brain is fried I guess. I have a stock blaster with uni filter and no lid....at a 250 jet, the plug chop look ok maybe a little lean, however at 260 the bike won't even idle unless I turn the air screw in all the way, I guess I thought that meant...

    The no lid difference

    ok so I put on a new uni filter, left my airbox lid off and rejectted to a 250...I have always thought that these wheelers were kinda slow, I expected it. What I went from with one little mod was a slowish wheeler to pulling the tires in third. I literally almost flipped the thing over. Could I...

    Fun ride

    Finally got to get the blasty out and really test it today. It's 50 degrees today so pretty comfy riding weather. My wife went to craft show that just happened to be by some old trails I used to ride. Drug my 4 wheeler along and got some funny looks when I fired it up at the center where the...

    Expansion chamber

    My question is, do aftermarket expansion chamber really make that much of a difference or is it really the muffler increasing the horsepower? I understand it is probably more efficient than a stock chamber, but at the price point it's definitely something I wanna know. I searched online and...

    Can't figure it out

    Ok so here it is. I have never noticed this because I have never been around other blaster or any 2 strokes really. When I first start rolling I have to give it ALOT of throttle to get it moving but once it gets around a quarter of the way through the revs it takes off like a shot. I have done...

    Stud spacers

    ok so I know this has been covered several times on wether or not to run stud spacers. I have decided to run them. I know a few people run them and wanted to get your opinion on how wide to go. I was thinking 5" rear and 3" front. Or 3" front and back. Same price either way. Opinions?

    Reintroduction

    Well I'm back. Sold my blasty about 6 months ago because it had more problems than I was willing to fix. Now the guy I sold it to put my banshee hydrolic brakes, the 400 ex shock I had for it on it. And he fixed the front brakes and the clutch issue AND did a top end rebuild. He sold it back to...

    Newbie
