    Surfriding So this is why my Rickter seemed a bit sluggish...

    FWIW, you might want to make sure your tank check valve isn't jacked up. I have seen faulty check valves keep the tanks from venting and when the tank gets hot, it forces fuel thru the carbs. So, when you go to start it up, the ski backfires because of an over abundance of fuel in the motor...

    Freestyle Look what followed me home this afternoon.....

    Well, since my boy Brad hurt his vagina, I figured I would repay him for painting my SXR (twice, lol). This thing should roll pretty good, 5mil Lamey built by Judge, FPP, Novis. Can't wait to see my brother on this thing trying to tune it!

    Type 9 Dry Pipe compared to B pipe on 850cc DASA?

    Does your DASA have the low pro powervalves? If not, you will need to dent the hell out of the Type 9 to fit. As for power, the wet B pipe will have more initial torque down low, but they sign off very quick. The Type 9 makes much more power overall. The Type 9 is very similar in tuning to...

    My New Ride - all carbon Cannondale

    I feel like a complete dumbass for buying it now. On the bright side, had a great 50 minute ride this afternoon at the local trail. My legs will be in the best shape they have ever been in come next season! :) SM

    My New Ride - all carbon Cannondale

    Ding Ding Ding Ding..... :) Just kidding. Yes, I got the bike fitted. I love the road bike, but to be honest, now that school is back in session (i live less than a mile from a high school and middle school) I am almost afraid to ride in the afternoons anymore. Since I got my 29er, the road...

    My New Ride - all carbon Cannondale

    The more I ride it the more I like it. I was hesitant to get a 29er, like I said earlier, just rode 26ers all my life. But, it is definitely the direction the sport is going, and after riding a couple of times, I see why. Scottie

    My New Ride - all carbon Cannondale

    This is the new m5 framed Camber. Same basic frame as the stump jumper with a little less suspension travel. I wanted a stumpy, but once I checked them both out, this was such an easier option on my wife's wallet, lol. She got me this as a combo 40th birthday/15 year anniversary gift. She's...

    Other Tripple compression

    ADA's recommendations on compression are VERY conservative. Especially on Kawis. You can run 170lbs of compression on a triple Kawi without problem in anything other than a runabout. If you put that motor in a blaster or stand up, they less weight decreases the amount of load on the motor...

    Other what video software is everyone using

    If you want to use final cut pro, you don't want to do it on a laptop. I have it on my laptop and desktop, and while the lap top 'can' do it, it is much better with the power of a desktop. For 90% of the amateur guys out there, me included, the new imovie will do what you want. If you are...

    SXR Quick Style Motorsports SXR light weight hulls

    Craig Warner (Factory Kawi) is going to be selling lightweight hulls in either s glass or carbon starting after the world finals. From what I heard, he may have some on display at WFs. They are supposed to have the pump moved back slightly to help with rough water hook up. Might want to check...

    Freestyle Carbs, what the diffrence? 48 Novi, 48 Rive PB, 48 full specs sct

    You are going to get a ton of different opinions on this topic. IMO, the best carb is the one you can get tuned in the best. The greatest carb in the world is only as good as the person tuning it. Having said that, IMO, FSs and Novis are the best around. Have used them both for years and...

    My New Ride - all carbon Cannondale

    I mountain bike, too. Just have a hard time getting buddies to ride much. Hate riding trails by myself. I have my eye on a nice FSR 29er Specialized, but until I get some buddies to ride with me, it is going to have to wait. I know you guys are going to say I am crazy, but I am not a fan...

    My New Ride - all carbon Cannondale

    Here is my new road bike. It is a full carbon cannondale road bike with sram components. This thing is awesome. Gotta give a big thanks to Tim Judge for setting me up with a great dealer - Bike World. Been riding like crazy these last few weeks. Legs should be ready to rock in the spring...

    Other Rim sizes on Atlantic Jet Sport nylon rims?

    http://www.atlanticjetsport.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=3957 Anyone bought any of these? Can you measure the diameter of the rims? I have two carts here with jacked up rims, they both are 9 inches in diameter. Want to make sure these are the same size before ordering. Thanks in...

    SXR 1100 sxr donor ski questions

    No, I am running a skat set back 142 with skat nozzles. GPS'd this weekend, 63.8. So, down a little, but it was near a hundred degrees, lol. Will be dropping in a 2 mil stroker before too long, shooting for upper 60s. SM

    SXR 1100 sxr donor ski questions

    $150 for all of that is a deal. I agree with Ultimate, if it were me, I would rebuild the crank. Even if it is in good shape, it is still 13 years old and who knows how many hours are on it. A rebuild isn't cheap by any means, but the knowledge of knowing the time on the crank is worth it in...

    SXR 1100 sxr donor ski questions

    rizk, The 1100 SXR conversion is a very easy build. About the only really technical thing is setting up the waterbox (and there are people who offer this service) and the drilling and tapping of the motor mounts. Everything else is fairly straight forward. As for the pump, if you are going...
