No power valve. Think 1982 two-stroke, air-cooled technology and you've got a good idea of what I'm working with.

I've tried all jet sizes down to 260 with no improvement. Actually, it runs best (but still awful) at about 270-280. I believe I've got the 280 in it currently. The bike also has the air box lid removed for more air flow, which supposedly is pretty restrictive in stock form. I didn't answer...

The bike won't rev up under load in gear, so I don't think the clutch is slipping. It pulls hard (meaning engages as you'd expect, not pulls hard on the lever) when released and can easily stall the motor in any gear. I can pull in the clutch (or be in neutral) and the bike will weakly rev to...

I want to say needle is in the middle position (of 5), I set it to the specs listed for a Toomey B1 pipe as it's a similar, large volume, top end type pipe. The recommended main jet size for the B1 pipe is 310 at sea level, meaning about a 290 up here. I know it sounds huge, but most of the...

Anybody? I'm about to drop this off at the dealer... which makes me cringe to even type. Stratton - just giving you crap about the clutch, I haven't opened it up ever. Is there something I might find in there that would cause it to lose all power at above about 2500 RPM? Thanks

It looks like a stack of flat rings, alternating bare metal and fiber plates, running in an oil bath. They all fit in an aluminum basket and are pressed together by a group of springs. Why do you ask?

They were some on the exhaust side, but not bad. I probably could have just honed it. But I used a new cylinder, piston and rings, so I suppose that's a moot point now. I set the ring gap properly, and chamfered the ports as well.

So, I bought my son a 2003 Blaster to learn on. It's a great size for him and the quad was in very nice condition. It came with a Vito's pipe, and had the factory TORS deleted (throttle override system, a problematic system designed to cut out if a stuck throttle is detected). When we test...

If you're wanting a long distance bike that's also acceptable in the dirt, a DRZ just isn't it. Mine does freeway speeds just fine, but it's buzzy, shaky, and windy as a hurricane. Sure you could add a good windscreen, anti vibe bars, DOT tires, gear a bit higher, and add a cush hub and it...

Just like the title says. I've moved these to three states and I'm tired of storing them. They are the classic black steelies, ready to hold the treads for your favorite crawler or pickup truck. All five are in great shape with no tires mounted and no valve cores. Located in Ogden near Weber...

I loaned these to a friend probably 7 years ago to help him pass inspection and then forgot I owned them. He was cleaning out his storage unit the other day and dropped them off. I really don't have a use for them and would like to see them disappear. All five are in good shape with the center...

Fabbing, building, testing, tweaking, rebuilding.... these are all a whole lot less fun than riding with people you care about. My advice is to never chase unicorns when there are perfectly good thoroughbreds in the corral. Jared

A thicker head gasket would help, and that's what I was about to suggest before you mentioned it. It's also cheap, and a relatively easy solution. Back in my TRX250R days, we'd run a CR or ATC head gasket which was I believe .010" thinner than the stock FourTrax gasket. This allegedly raised...

I just leave mine on the shelf for over a year at a time between rides to let all the bacteria starve to death. Seems to do the trick.

Which rear axle and gear ratio? Is the lift from springs or pucks? Six-cylinder? Thanks

Is a 2000 model a Super Duty with the metric bolt pattern? Steering and brake hardware included?

Hey now, I just finished it off!

Sale Pending!

68" and I'm sure you could slide the seats forward a couple inches (they're adjustable). There's plenty of knee room where they sit.

I inherited this from my grandpa when he passed in July. He bought it when it was just a couple years old and then used it mostly for driving from his home in Illinois to visit family in Mississippi, Utah and Idaho. It has 170,504 miles on the clock. It's got the 4.9L (300ci) straight six...
