Hello, thanks for having me, this is my first post. I just got a blaster for free, unsure of year. It's solid teal, even the seat with a silver frame. This bike was sitting in a big blackberry bush and the owner let me take it home, it was his kids who no longer live there. I dumped a little gas in the tank, pulled the choke and it started second kick. But, it's blowing exauhst from the base gasket. I went and got a new one from the Yamaha shop, my question is should I re ring it and hone the cylinder while it's apart?
This thing has sat for 10 plus years so I know I will clean the carb and such. I only ran it for a minute or two, just seeing if it would start or not. The tires are no good but I picked up two dico fastrackers on aluminum rims for $50 today for the rear, the fronts hold air but are checked bad.
And what do you think about all these $60 top end kits on Amazon and eBay?? Complete with a new jug!
Thanks guys it's my first blaster and I'm excited to hear what you all have to say.
