1999 Warrior Rebuild "Jar-Jar"

[hawkster0001]

yeah i like the 14 just because i dont have to shift as much, makes it a lot nicer on curving trails.

did I here the vavles ticking? Good to see it up and running. Next we get an action vid of you tearing it up?

I dont here valves ticking, but that was taped with my droid so it could just be how the mic picked it up. I was actually driving around my yard and I love how it handles diagonally on hills. The red one would be up hill tires light, this one feels like im on flat land. Possibly be getting an action vid this weekend, kinda depends on the weather though. If not this weekend, then as soon as I get the new wheels on.

We'll see, the main trails I ride are ones we made at my father-in-laws and there are a few hair pin turns. Those you have to peg it and get the ass end to slide.

yeah teh thing i didnt like was that the ratio for my 4th and 5th was a bit too broad for cruizing along in sand, so id come to a turn shift down go through it get a straight then shift again then down, etc. which is obviously gonna be the case if your riding like your racing, but its nice to be able just keep it in one gear. plus mine accellerates faster with a 14 tooth imo

Not much sand around here so we'll see.

Heres a rough pic of what Case is doing with the rims. The main part will be powder coated black and the ring will just be the metal. Figured the rings will be taking the brunt of anything I might rub up against or hit, so they would be easier to keep looking good this way.

Ya that's how mine are. I just touch up the metal every year

I think it'll look really good since the hubs are yellow. On a side note, if I can get the wife to tape me tomorrow and the weather cooperates. Ill have an action vid.

 

[1998yamahawarrior]

Got to finally take it for a real ride today. All I can say is I love the whole setup. She corners like its on rails, its great. Unfortunately no video today, I couldnt talk the wife into coming outside in the cold to do atleast a short one. Now I just need to get the $$$ together to get the stuff for my performance ideas.

Trying to come up with something to name this Warrior. Ironically enough Deadlast was giving me some **** about the other warrior and ended up being the perfect name for it. So I figured some of the demented minds on here could come up with something.

 

[DeadLastRacing]

Well, we gotta see it first. What it look like at the moment with its new shoes?

 

[1998yamahawarrior]

The new wheels are still on there way, they'd probably be here early in the week if I hadnt decided to have him so some powder coating the day the money cleared paypal. They should be here later this week I hope. Heres the newest one I got:

 

[DeadLastRacing]

Looks like JAR JAR Binks. First thing that comes to mind for what ever reason. I dub thee, Jar Jar.

It looks ****** cool though man. Awesome upgrade!

 

[duneracerweston]
