That thing looks like a cheese grader was used on it.

Is that what happened when you rode for a hour or so with your air box boot unhooked from your carb? That piston is F*@#ked, I hate to see the cylnder wall.

i think you got your braaps confused. i think the guy with that problem is named braup.

that's funny cuz that's exactly what happened to me but i haven't posted on here for months... but yea i went to change my throttle cable one day and when i took the fuel tank off i noticed the boot wasn't on the carb... put it back on, and it ran for a while after but the damage had already been done.

Boy that sucks:eek2:

got a pic of the inside of the cylinder? man that sucks

That has happened to me as well, cost me a few mx races too. Well fortunetly that kind of damage was not done, short moto's, but going through the whoops my air filter to carb boot kept slipping off. I noticed something was wrong right away, NO POWER. Dang thing kept coming off each race too, not exactly the best system they have there. Had to custom make a clamp that I could really torque down to get it to stay... Something to definetly keep an eye on!

[Bigdaddy52302]

That is a crappy design by Honda I had the same problem too, However I noticed it right away cause I had no power past 1/4 throttle. I did have my braup's confused though wierd that is what happen to braaap07 too.

I guess any veriation of the spelling of braap is HAUNTED!! haha.. how long did you ride like that? I rode 3 hours and its running werid, with backfiring and stuff, do you think I f'ed it up too.. god I hope not!! Thank man, now you got me scared! lol

Mine slips off every time I ride and it really pisses me off! Anyone know of a good yay to keep that turd sealed on the carb???

[00300ex]

i have that problem also and do alot of trail riding ... i took a bike tube and cut it open and wrapped it around the carb side and the air box intake and clamped it down

[Ruby Soho]

i've never had a problem with mine coming off.. just make sure its on correctly and then tighten the clamp, using a bit better hose clamp might help?

[kodymx13]

use a "REAL" hose clamp.

[BamBam730]

A real hose clamp will solve your problem.
