    yamaha 230 vs honda 230 help

    That CRF150R is really quite the badass little bike. It is a high perf motor so yes the maintenance will be higher than the CRF230 (which will probably last forever as long as you change the oil and clean the air filter), but it shouldn't be so much more that's a big deal. Honda valves were...

    yamaha 230 vs honda 230 help

    My sister has the Honda, it feels pretty gutless to me but I don't know how it compares to the TTR. The Yamaha has a higher compression ratio which would lead me to believe it has more power, but I'm sure they're very close. The Honda is 7 lbs lighter, that's a fairly significant difference to...

    Good video editing software?

    I am a total newb at video editing, but I did do it once and I used VirtualDub on the advice of others. Seems like it will do everything you need and is pretty easy to use. http://www.virtualdub.org/ Oh, and its free.

    Stolen car stereo speakers

    Last night someone ripped the JBL Marine Speakers out of my Bronco. They were in basic carpeted 6x9 boxes that you'd buy from any audio store. Not a huge loss (I work for the same parent company that owns JBL so I get a great discount), but of course I'm angry about it. If you happen to see...

    Dual Sport bikes

    I don't know what the KLX450 was in years past, but it is not a dual sport bike and certainly has no relation to Suzuki. The KLX450 is Kawi's off road race bike, essentially a KX450 with a toned down engine, e-start, headlight/taillight, and not as good suspension. I believe the KLX250 is...

    Dual Sport bikes

    I ride dirt bikes a lot, but have never owned a dual sport. I don't like either the CRF230L or the XR650L. The 230 will be incredibly weak, and the 650 is incredibly heavy. The heavy factor also applies to the KLR, and DRZ (though the DRZ is the best of the bunch for power to weight ratio...

    EB C4 trans?

    I've had C4's in both mine and never had any problems, but I've never been a hardcore wheeler. I like the C4, just wish it had an extra gear on top. Cheap to rebuild. The '76 is better than the '77 imo, I swear my '76 was significantly more powerful than the '77 I have now, even though the...

    Price june 21 and 22

    I've just seen videos of that one obstacle that you climb out of, and I'm also not really that confident in my skills as a driver. So basically I would expect body damage, and I haven't quite come to grips with that yet. :D I would be willing to try with a good spotter though.

    Price june 21 and 22

    I would possibly do this, I might be out of town elsewhere but if I'm here I'd like to go. I want to do Diffhanger, not so sure about Pinnacle. 77 Bronco locked w/ 36's.

    Where are all of the EB's

    I still have my '77, I don't ever wheel it because I'm too busy dirt biking in my free time. I've thought about selling it actually, but I don't know if I can bring myself to do it... I know I'll regret it, just like the last one.

    Dirtbiking at 5 mile???

    Plenty of trails at 5 mile, I usually do about a 12 mile loop that goes South off the road and circles around the mountain there. There are way better places to go though, 5 mile really chews up your tires due to the hard dirt and rocks. I only ride there when I don't have the time to drive...

    Screw customer service, here's a real PITA

    Don't they have two different SS#'s? Generally you can contact the credit bureaus to get things straightened out and separated. It would probably take awhile but this is the first thing I'd do.

    Automatic Transmission Repair Shops

    Mike Asay at Intermountain Transmission on West Temple and about 14th south in SLC. He's honest and does good work at a good price. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

    Recommend me a shop

    Yes its all stock, 2barrel, 302, C4 auto, etc. I would like to go to EFI eventually, not sure when it will happen though. I have always planned to do a full restoration and at that time I'd put everything in that I want, efi included. That's 2-3 years down the road at least.
