bbrad mulvey
04-15-2005, 12:09 PM
No actually that day I was doing the hair scramble. That was fun....If you ever made it to the fairgrounds this winter for the flat track I was on the 450r with the KandK graphics.And you?

baseballplaya23
04-15-2005, 01:27 PM

bbrad mulvey
04-15-2005, 10:13 PM
I dont know yet. I like to flat track and all, but my amchine is mainly set up for MX. BUT I did get hurt last weekend really bad, like amubulance to the emergency room bad, and I wont be racing for about a month or two. I remember the 250r out there. You have the stock looking one right? with the white(mostly) plastics? You were rippin it up when I watched you!

My number is 111 by the way;)

metalmellinium
04-15-2005, 11:12 PM
Nah he had red plastics, gold rims. I was out there 2 i was on the all black YFZ450 #13 where were u parked at? By Jerry?

Who knows what track this is in the NW...:chinese:

bbrad mulvey
04-15-2005, 11:17 PM
Ya thats what I meant with him. No I dont get the honor of parking with Jerry and Ken:( I park out front with the rest of em. Sorry about the wreck man! everything come out ok? Now you are the one with the Curtis Sparks pipe correct? With the heat tape around the pipe:D Nice, well Im gonna try to make it out there some time before the seasons over(and winter season begins) But its just a pain for me to swwap my MX over to flat track and then back again. But I will sacrifice it once I suppose:cool:

metalmellinium
04-15-2005, 11:40 PM
Thanks ya i separated my shoulder pretty good. Hey now that heat wrap is awesome stuff!! haha jk, ya i need it because i melt my pants and boot. I now have a white bros pipe. We parked with Jerry and Ken the last race. If you come out to the other track come on over and say high. You just need to get a YFZ now!:devil:

metalmellinium
04-15-2005, 11:41 PM
No where is that track at?

bbrad mulvey
04-16-2005, 02:21 AM
Hey what are you gonna do with that sparks pipe? My buddy JUST bought a brand new yfz. You know I am actually very bias on the 450 class to me they are both equal. I would love to own a yammi, but I do bleed red. I love honda's proven reliability and customer service. Plus I am sponosered by CdA Honda;) No but when is you next race? Im going to go to the 4 stroke nationals this weekend and help pit for my buddy on his z400(if it wasnt for the broken back I would race). So let me know....
Im Brad by the way!

bbrad mulvey
04-16-2005, 02:00 PM

Hey Tyler so how much you want for thoseA arms? ANything wrong with them got any and pics? I take it they work with stock length shocks? Cool the 15th...of next month? wow, you will be back in the saddle around the same time as me! Let me know what you want to to with that Sparks pipe, if you want to sell it Im sure he would be more than will ing to take it off your hands if its still in good shape:)

metalmellinium
04-16-2005, 02:21 PM
There are just alittle scratched up thats it. i was looking to get 500 for them. not sure with the sparky yet i will let you know tho. but yes the arms work with stock shocks. here are some pics of them they have no stickers on them now. but ya next month i hope! let me know if he is intrested in them. Thanks alot, so what all do you have done to your Rhttp://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid143/p7bd4735df135e7082bb7fd49753ea8f6/f68c95dd.jpg

04-16-2005, 05:11 PM
Ok Tyler I just told my buddy about your arms and he said he will take them? He is curious about your pipe big time! He is wondsering how come you are getting rid of it?

bbrad mulvey
04-16-2005, 05:14 PM
Also how are you makeing your quad sit so low with stock shocks?
. My mods are listing in the signature below. Next up is a 13:1 piston and port and polish... I personally dont think I need the power, I think I just need to get more time in the seat(like every one else that needs more power), but come better riding so will my skills, I hope:)

metalmellinium
04-16-2005, 06:32 PM
He is wondering why i am getting rid of my a-arms? I am going with JB racing a-arms, a little shorter. So he does want them? Had them revalved and dual rate springs

bbrad mulvey
04-16-2005, 07:35 PM
Yes he does. I will make sure of it 100% tonight.
Hot much it cost to get that done for the shocks, and where did you do it at? He mostly rides trails and mx would it be a good set up for him you think as far as the way you did your shocks?

metalmellinium
04-16-2005, 07:45 PM
Ok thanks man, with his shocks i would say leave them how they are, or get some elkas. The only reason i did mine was to lower it a bit. But if he MX do not lower them. It cost me about 800 to do mine. And i can get elkas for 400 lol. So i got those on order now.

Do U have info or website for Spokane? That is the same weekend as Pacific Raceways Mx opener, but after getting the TT bug at RMC I might be willing to head east. Also I have info on Castle Rock and Hannegan is there any other places or series for flattrack or TT?

baseballplaya23
04-17-2005, 06:53 PM
yes RMC is running a 4-race flat track series this summer. other places to FT are elma, castle rock, hannegan, and in either late august or early september Skagit speedway has flat track races. you should deff go to spokane. that track is a f***in blast
