Well, I was workin on doing the stock silencer gut and do the perforated core and what not. but My welder decided to be a PITA and I'm goin ridin thursday. So since it was so poorly designed and wasnt cooperating, so I had to break down and buy an FMF slip on. Not sure the exact modle yet, I wasnt worried about specifics, I just told the dealer, I want something that'll work with stock head pipe, and I need it by thrusday. How's 300$$ sound for a slip on ! ouch:ermm:

I wouldnt be very happy with that price. If you were to call C&D Racing u could prob get one much cheaper.

damn man that sucks im sure if u look around on the internet u could get 2 day shipping for a fairly cheap price and get that silencer alot cheaper... try www.moto-man.com or www.rockymountainatv.com these are the sites that i have the most luck price wise hope that helps later man

I have paid big money to have parts like Now. One time I bent the axle on my budies 450r. this was on a sat. He had a race the next weekend sunday. so I had like 7 days to get a axle. I ended up paying like 250 for a used axle shipped 2nd day air. had it for thrus.

Actually a member from this site shiped it to me before he got his money!! he event paid for like 80$ shipping. I was soooo thankful that somone would do this kind of a favor. But I got it done.

yea, well I had to get it ordered TODAY. I have to get it in on thursday, do the jetting, get my tires mounted, and make sure everything is in workin order by thursday night
so I have one day, thursday morn-afternoon to mount my silencer and do my jetting and crap. PLus I was MAJORLY pissed at my welder, so I was in no mood to spend the time shoppin around and all that crap, and find a place that could get in here on time, I'm just like whatever, called the dealer, said gimme a silencer, I need it by thrusday. lol.

My shoulder keeps poping out when I ride so i'm going to try to get that fixed, and if I can ride i'll probably check that out, because I heard they changed it and made a little less easy and lame. I'll be on a 2006 KX250F or an RM-Z450 #141 or 428. Oh, and pastfast, unless you got a Factory 4.1 you got raped in the ***.

I do go out and goonride for a few minutes, though.

Maybe i'll see you there sometime this summer when your bike is done.

He had a thread a while ago about tips on ridin. Non the less I'll see ug uys there and we can chill. We'll have a big white camper, a little red trailer, 2 z400's, a GMC sierra denali pickup truck, tan in color. And probably an old beater tan and brow ford;)

yea man, just look for our big camper and truck and what not. How bout we pick a time where we could meet up somehwere for a few minutes? Just to chill and wwhat not, then we can go out and ride. I was thiknin maybe we could meet up at like somewhere, I dunno..at like 12 though?

Oh, and I need to do a chit load to get my bike goin. It's a total rebuild, so yea. My exhaust is the Powercore4. I got it on, boy what a pain. I was gonna jet for it and no airbox lid. I got the supplied needle and spacers and what not, set the clip at the 3rd setting, and that was it. I went to do the main jet, pulled the carb, went to take the bowl off, no go. the srews were in so dam tight they wouldnt busge, stripped to of the heads. called up the dealer, he said try pliers, tried that. Then he told me I'd be fine stock jetting if I just run the pipe and dont do anything else, so thats what I'm doin till after I go, so I can get the dealer to get the bowl off. Should I mess with the mixture screw at all? I took it out down the street, and It seemed like dead on everywhere, maybe lacking a lil in like mid-upper range, but down low it's torqueyer ( haha sp) then ever. I can be in first, just twist it a lil bit like a snap, dam front end pops up, lol. It's like ridin on hydraulics, just bounces right up. The twist throttle seems pretty cool too. It'll take me a little while, maybe 20 mins to get used to it completely. The only time it scared me a little bit is when I turn hard, and I'm like leanin off the bike kinda, and then gun it, that kinda feels weird with the twist...but a good 20 mins of riding and I'll be good. Felt real natural to me to ride with it. Plus it's just so much cooler than thumb:devil:

ill tell you one thing ..we need to all complain aobut that sihttay atv track.. the groomer must have blind folds on when he grooms it.. (he sucks at grooming)
Njorvp itself, is nice, its just that the track is ****ty.

04-12-2006, 03:06 PM
how bout i get my dirtbike boyz to complain about the atv track and you get ur quad boyz to complain about the dirtbike track and well all have a shizzle fo shizzle track to ourselves:D

sounds like your jetting is lean...


do you have snap-on skrew dirvers. that is one of the must have tools from snap-on. Any skrew that a normal skrewdriver fails. snap-on one will taker-er out no problem.

pastfast125
04-12-2006, 03:22 PM
no, no snap on crap. I Know the jetting is probably sliightly lean, but I mean, down low it's amazing. Feels perfect, just feels like it cuts of slightly on the top, or maybe I was imagining it, I'll try it out again tomorrow or tonight maybe and let ya now what conlucsion I come to.

once you get the old tires off you will be fine. Put like a piece of wood on the tire near the bead and then hit it with a mallet. Somethings gotta work.

04-12-2006, 08:15 PM
lol dude, I was standing on the tire on each side, right next to the rim, and I was jumping on it, and it wouldnt come off, and I weigh like 190lbs. :eek:

Just take it to Big O Tires, if there is one by you. Costs $5.00 and 15 minutes as long as they aren't too busy.

breaking the bead on fourhweeler tires is next to imposible without a machine. I put mine in arbor press with a tool on the end. I can break the bead on 2 tires in about 30 min. lol takes forever. WAY easier to have them done.



Mounting tires is easy.

I was sponsored by Alloy but they went out of buisness, so I have 3 brand new sets of SX1 gear that I can't wear anymore. I'll sell you some for cheap if you want.

04-12-2006, 09:09 PM
haha thanks but no thanks bro i might be alittle to "fat" to fit the typical sized rider's gear lol but other than that im ordering a thor phase 06 combo thingy this weekend. I just got that cus i got a thor chest protector and thor quadrant mx boots. i got all the cheap chit cus im just getting started, as i progress and get alittle better so will my ride and gear. but thanks anyway.

" Sorry to let you know, but Alloy is done for good. We tried everything we could to buy the company back from our parent corporation but to no avail. Unfortunately, we cannot supply any gear to any of our riders as all inventory has been liquidated. You are free to go find a ride from someone else."

i went today and it was dusty. all of the jumps are terrible and no one is taking care of them. however, there were not many people there so it was worth it. you guys will be lucky tom. if it rains. im talkin about the intermediate and mx track, the atv track looked the same. they have some new little wood-chip table top thing.

04-13-2006, 03:09 PM
I dunno if they'll let me, but since I'm campin there, I'm gonna ask if at night time when riding is over, if I can go out with a shovel and groom some of the jumps and stuff, see what I can do. I just wanna give some of em a better lip and what not, maybe fill in some big braking bumps and stuff.
