The Rattlesnake

[Herpderplol]

I decided to call my blaster the Rattlesnake or rattler for short.

why? because everything rattles on it! air scoops being the worst, and especially bad when hitting the pipe

engine runs good and strong.

i will upload pictures tomorrow, its dark and i am topless (hood of the blaster... topless...)

Why was it that a thought of Remington flashed before my eyes!

is it running top notch now?

 

[Herpderplol]

is it running top notch now?

yes, other than the ridiculous rattling

the rattling is literally louder than the exhaust

 

[harley1-5]

maybe some rubber washers.If you don't mind me asking what was the no spark issue caused by?

 

[Blaaster]

A real Rattle bag, hey what!

 

[Herpderplol]

its in the no spark thread, but my CDI was bad.
i tested red/black and black wires for resistance and it didnt read anything. tried my brothers and im currently running with his

 

[harley1-5]

ah all I have is an 03+ cdi if its even still here let me know if itll work and ill check and see if its still on my roller

 

[Herpderplol]

I hope everyone is okay with top less pictures

Looks good Herp!

 

[Herpderplol]

i would put the hood on, but its 6 allen head screws with a few nuts on the inside that are a pain to remove.

if anything else goes wrong (history shows it will ) i dont have to remove the hood
also im leaving it off until i get my own CDI and will put my brothers back on his ride

[PRChrist]

yeah fine looking blaster you got there

 

[Herpderplol]

okay. tomorrow or monday (no school, im so excited im still getting up early) im going to fix a lot of rattles. its just ridiculous!!

few things im doings:
taking air scoops off
taking lose bolt out of my airbox
tightening air box a little, might not be rattling but could be.
tightening the grab bar. just noticed it tonight when i grabbed it while running. its a loud spot

 

[harley1-5]

that thing does look good

 

[Blaaster]

Topless it maybe, but the scoops hide all the good bits!

 

[Herpderplol]

scoops are off, tightened the airbox. misc other things

this beast still shakes like crazy!

glad i have anti-vibe stem. now i just need anti-vibe footpegs. i literally cant stand or my feet go num

sounds like a counter balancer problem.
i'd be pulling the clutch cover to confirm the dots are aligned between balancer and main gears

 

[Herpderplol]

sounds like a "whoever welded this frame did a crappy job"

hence why i want to "protect my investment" like dirty did by swapping frames

You have a sick looking machine there herp! Think of the rattling as "giving it character"
