ive pretty much always run DID chains on my bikes and currently have an xring chain on my 96. I need a chain for my 98 and im looking to save a bit of money cause Rocky Mountain has primary drive chain and sprocket kits that are the same price as just a DID chain. Anyone had any experience...

the short cut around bleeding the brakes so much is to reverse bleed them by forcing fluid from the calipers up to the master cylinder. they sell fancy tools to do this but for the average person ive found that a pump style oil can does the trick. just put a peice of hose from the bleeder to the...

Your most likely looking at a wiring diagram for a different year. For some reason yamaha thought it would be funny to change wire colors from year to year and its the same problem ive had every time ive had to diagnose an electrical problem. Check out the free manual in the tutorials section...

yup. even managed to get the reverse and neurtral lights fixed that havent worked since i bought the bike

well i went through the entire electrical system and couldnt find anything. then im putting it back together and it occured to me to check and see if anything had power and nothing did. went to check for power at the main switch and noticed that one of the connectors in the plug was partially...

the valve stems will hit the calipers. the alternative to drilling another hole is to get flush mout valve stems like they use on bling rims for cars. this is what i used when i converted my blaster to front disk brakes and what im putting on my warrior soon...

sorry wasnt really clear. when i said jump the solenoid i ment actualy energizing it strait to the battery with jumper wires so the solenoid is definately good. im gonna try going through the electrical system again tommrow but it doesnt help that the retarted previous owner spray painted the...

so i cant for the life of me get the electric start to work on my '98. the solenoid it fine, the starter button is fine, the clutch switch is eliminated, both relays are good, and everything seems to have contenuity. i can start it by jumping the solenoid so i no the starters good as well. i...

it should still be in the head cause there isnt really any passages large enough for it to fit through. id say pull the valve covers and take the cam out and u should be able to fish it out of there

im at like 1200 feet above sea level which shouldnt really affect anything. more just curious if theres a set rule about where the main needle should be placed

well i ordered a 150 main jet which im gonna put in as im pretty sure its running way to rich even at WOT. is there any specific specs for setting the main needle in a particular location? mabey baised on temp/altitude? just wondering

i actually read that through several times. i definatly understand the principals of a carb from a physics stand point but am still lost on how to apply everything in the real world. im gonna get a 150 main from rocky mountan since im ordering other parts anyway but unfortunately they dont have...

took the carb apart and its running a 152.5 main jet 42.5 pilot jet and the main needle is 5J18 position 3 down from the top. from what i can tell the only jet different from stock is the main jet. and what exactally does changing the needle position do?

id guess that its just individual jets. i bought the quad from a neighbor and from what he told me the motor was done by trinity racing back aroung '98 ish so id assume that they just sent him the jets but i havent been able to find much information on what they actually sold in there kits as...

ive known that my warrior was jetted ritch but after the rebuild i just did its really clear that its extremely ritch. i know for a fact that the bike was jetted for flat track on the ice when i bought it. i dont know what jets are in the carb but ill will hopefully find that out tommrow...

well its possible to get delrin in different colors but it genneraly has to be ordered straight from dupont and they have rediculously high minimum order quantites of like 100lbs. for the most part suppliers stock black and white so thats what i used. and if theres enough intrest i might make...

cut this out on a CNC today. not bad for $20 of material and an hr worth of work. its made out of Delrin which is far more abrasion resistant than the aftermarket UHMW ones.

no i have the seal i just popped it out in preperation for welding it. hopefully going to get it welded up today and then plate over where the carrier ripped with some 1/8inch plate so it dosent happen again. what sucks is if the bearings ever go bad its gonna be like a 99% chance itll have to...

got a nice suprise today when i was doing some matinence today. the caliper bracket nearly ripped completely off the housing. hell if i know when how it happened

yea it was on craigslist back in january. the guy was from hacketstown if i remember correctly. got a hell of a deal on it. he had it up for $600 but when i went to look at it i convinced him that the electrical system was fried since it wouldnt crank over and the carb needed to be replaced...
