    Drift Blaster?

    I wonder if I can stretch wheel barrow tyres onto blaster rims?!

    Drift Blaster?

    Shouldn't be too hard to adapt a motorbike swing arm to a Blaster frame.

    Drift Blaster?

    Hey all, Are there any hard/plastic rear tyres that can be put on the back for low speed drifting on bitumen? Just for some low speed safe laughs? Cheers, Greg.

    Widening steel rims?

    Excellent! This is what I wanted to know. It boils down to I can but it's just not worth it. Thanks!

    Widening steel rims?

    I know I can do it, it's a matter of whether it's worth it. Obviously, I could pick my own offset, but would there be any other benefits?

    Widening steel rims?

    Please explain why. P.S. I'm a boilermaker so the fabrication and welding isn't much of an issue.

    Hey all, Has anybody cut and widened the rear rims to fit wider tyres? Cheers, Greg.

    What other shocks fit?

    Hey all, I know the experienced people here would know, but for a new owner like myself, what shocks from other models can be used? I'm looking at upgrading the rear shock on my 04, and I know about the 400ex shock. But there must be others that fit. The Honda shock is not exactly plentiful in...

    Blaster rear shock removal

    How much stored energy was in the shock when you release it? I've got the same issue with my rear shock and the top bolt but worried about the whole thing shooting out on me.

    Adjust standard rear end?

    Damn! Not cheap here. Unless I find somebody local selling one, I'm screwed!

    Can you get these in Australia?

    Adjust standard rear end?

    Hey all, I'm trying to stiffen up my standard rear shock, have undone the locking nut, applied penetrative oil for a few days to loosen it up, but I can't for the life of me move the adjusting nut below the spring perch. Went and purchased (then modified) a 32mm spanner for the job with no...

    Bent my frame on my new blaster ! Help!?

    Boilermaker here. Don't try and fix that. Just find another frame and swap everything over. Trust me. That frame is a wreck.

    Banshee bits?

    Hey all, Are any Banshee parts worth installing on a Blaster? I have an '04 so brakes are fine, and I don't want to change rear axle.

    Rubber flares?

    Has anybody used the rubber flares that the 4WD community use to cover wide wheels as an extension on the factory plastics? I'm thinking of doing something like it on mine but struggling to find the right product to do it with.

    Settings for a bigger rider?

    Not keen on making it wider. It only just gets in my trailer now. Went for the maiden ride yesterday. Started with front shocks on softest setting and ended up on the third setting. Didn't have the right spanners to adjust the rear shock but it's too soft now. Nail the throttle and rear sags...

    Settings for a bigger rider?

    Hey all, I have a stock 04 and not sure on the adjustable settings. I'm 100kg and a novice on quads, so no jumps etc, just trail riding. What would be the best setup for me? Cheers!
