    X2 + Sx-r = Sx-2r

    Ebay Dave, lol I used to go on Bar Crawls back in college where you paid like $10 bucks and got into a different bar every half hour for free and got great drink specials. Well I met these two girls doing a crawl and from then on my name in their cell phones was "Bar Crawl Dave". Kind of funny.

    yup.... it finally happened

    The other day in the garage I must have been bent over rummaging through boxes too long and my back hurt in a weird way it never has before. It was like a piercing pain. But the other day I hurt my back carrying my new engine up some stairs. Then the next day I was chucking defect air plane...

    X2 + Sx-r = Sx-2r

    STS throttle cable. I wish I would have went back and read this thread. I knew you used a differentcable. But when I was doing my Hot Products order I was like "look there, that bracket looks like it will work just fine. Besides they are both Mikuni carbs..." I guess I was WRONG! You said...

    The Official McMaster Carr Part Number List

    I will edit this and add soem later. I have found those quick disconnects like the CPC brand Jet Works uses to make their fuel and water restrictor connectors. Much cheaper than the ones in Hot Products but still a little pricey. I also found the pinch on style Otiker clapms cheaper on...

    Do Not Use Usps To Ship Overseas!!!!!

    Same here, never a problem shipping USPS overseas. I had a guy question me once so I simply scanned the recipt that clearly showed where I had paid to ship to his city and country. He was more patient then.

    Brent, why wouldn't this bracket work? I just bought on and a UMI wheel. Between those two I could have bought TWO throttle cables. Man that sucks...

    Fiberglass question

    I used Marine Tex a time or two. I recommend their liguid stuff but not the putty. It didn't stick to the hull at all. Then again I probably prepped and mixed it wrong...

    Who has the best prices on OEM Yamaha parts

    Bike bandit is always high, so is Riva for that matter. Cheapest prices online I found for parts is Ron Ayers but I am not sure if they are a Yamaha dealer. I am missign my old parts hook up more and more. If someone would just gove me 10-20% I would buy every little nut and bolt from...

    Some basic SXR performance mod questions

    Sounds good. I will be at Smith a good bit riding with Gil. I want to go to the Chicken Bine ride. but my check engine ligth has been on for a week in my truck and it is idling rough = more money... I would rather ride 30 times this summer than ride for 2 days in FL. All depends on if Gil...

    Some basic SXR performance mod questions

    Jet Works control valve, UMI trim lever, Bull Dog stainless steel bumper, primer T & plunger, flush kit, UMI gas cap, Vilder fuel pick up, Ocean Pro bed plate, Skat 650 9/17 prop among other things. I have just a bunch of little odds and ends. I think I have enough spare stock parts that...

    Some basic SXR performance mod questions

    Yeah and BK told me how you have to dremel the stator cover some and you always end up wearing through it. Then you have to JB Weld it on the outside. Sorry but I am not paying almost 50 bucks for an R&D advance plate to mess up my unmolested engine... Crab, I found the pump shaft. It has...

    Some basic SXR performance mod questions

    I have a PJS one I bought years back. Right now I think I will hold off on putting an advance plate in. I don't feel like opeing the stator up just to put one on. Eventually I will get TL or an Advent with a TBM wheel.

    this is unique

    Slug you need one big enough to just ride your ski in. I bet that water is cold up there in Toon Town! Gil is out riding today. I would have went but I am too lazy to go dig a ski out. Next weekend...

    fly water flow valve

    McMaster Carr also has the exact same connectors but without the restrictors. I was thinking of getting them so I could pull a gas tank or engine faster. Two worries come to mind. Ones it that it would get clogged as mentioned. Two is that if I get the shut off kind, (it shuts the flow off...

    Sold!

    Well I guess I am a turd then. I wasn't knocking the 650SX, I used to have one myself. Put a 750 in it and they are even more fun. They just don't corner or handle like a 750 does. They weigh less than any SJ too! Best mod is a shortened aluminum pole. The stocker felt like a ton after I...
