Project DEATHSTROKE 95 Warrior

Pics from 5.15.16 rideout


Starting the day
The Machines- DeathStroke, Honda 450TRX & 250ex

Really challenging terrain. Very Rocky, lots of inclines, & stream crossings. Day got cut short with a flat tire.
Here's some video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8B9Q4A92vCKcE1kcU5nQURULW8/view?usp=docslist_api

Kinda started my own mowing business to bring in some extra income

never going riding again without a can of slime or fix a flat......& i actually enjoy cutting my grass for some reason; so not a bad way to make extra cash. Landscaping makes huge $$ by me

Cool vid Jimmy. Deathstroke sounds mean. I'm sure you can already tell, but tilt your camera up a tad more so we can see where you are going.

Yea it fell down. Check out this one before it came down a bit. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8B9Q4A92vCKeXB3LUgwY211dEE/view?usp=drivesdk

Looks good. That's a nice place to ride

 

[jimmyde78]

Thanks Trent. It's nice. Everyone we saw in there was on dirt bikes and some of those trails are very narrow. I didn't get out of 3rd gear I don't think

 

[jimmyde78]

If it had more stretches where I could open it up it would be much better. But definitely will go back.

 

[Warrior1996]

I like the tight trails better lol, but I don't ride in rocks like that hardly ever.

Looks like fun Jimmy. Nice video. Still trying to decide if it was really bumpy or if you had too many Coronas.

How exactly did you paint the stator cover? Looks awesome and I want to do it with my warrior. Did you take it off completely or just tape around it while it was still on the quad. It's an awesome touch.

Thanks man...Dude it was so easy Got a can of krylon & a scuff pad from home depot. (You can use plasti-dip too) I just took it off, cleaned it with alcohol, scuffed it up so the paint sticks to it good, & sprayed it in over a piece of cardboard. Let it dry for a few hours & done....

Awesome! Maybe I'll get around to picking up a can of paint one of these days and try it out on mine. Thanks!

Rear Brake Job

Finally got around to doing the rear brake. The pads were
grinding the rotor so I replaced that too.


Pads were just shot. Down to bare metal


Came to putting the pads in & the Piston is seized up. So I'm debating my next move :argh:

Do the yfz450 caliper mod

Either I rebuilt it--new piston is 45$ from boats.net; or get an entire assemby--cheap aftermarket--from eBay for 45$. Here's the one on eBay: http://m.ebay.com/itm/Rear-brake-ca...%3Abff667741570a624b9104db4ffffe72b%7Ciid%3A1

OEM new is 250$ so that out of the question. I may need a new assembly anyways once I start taking it apart. What you guys think I should do?
