St.Anthony June 2008

[DannyBoy]

i cant believe this wasnt started yet. I thought it was. Anyways, i was thinking, i have no motor plans for banshee next year other than gearing, what about everyone else? If anything the YFZ might be different

The Z400 will have some different oil and a new old radiator on it.

Well after the August 17-19 trip to silver lake I plan to tear into mine    I got a Weisco 11:1, Stage 2 Hotcam, Extreme Port and Polish and Bored throttle Body to get done in just under a month..  To make the RaptorForum rally Sept 14-16 at silver lake.   And i really want to go to St.Anthony with all of you in June

sounds nice. Jason better catch up with you. will be interesting to see how yours turns out

[Pete]

amen on the internet thing.  I might look into an oversized tank as well, although having gas at the BLM was fine too, I didn't even hit reserve this year.

I figure a nice sandpapering of the plastic with some 80 grit will be my only mod.  I need to save money for my Jeep and Duramax.

eh, you were fine on gas. {SWINGARM AND PADDLES}

But its nice not having to think about it at all.  I agree though, that $200 would be much better spent on a swingarm (especially if you build the motor up a little).

[Pete]

swingarms are for sissies.  I hear you on the new paddles though 

[Ben]

yeah, but he would have same problem that i did with banshee where there is a tank cover. Im telling you, the 6pack rack with small gas can is the way to go. Cost under a $100 and you can take it off when you dont need it easily

[Ben]

if you get real paddles that actually bite you will want a swingarm. Think how much it would suck if your bike was like Joshs and you couldnt keep the front end down hillclimbing

[Pete]

I'll see how it does with your paddles at Silver Lake, I like having a stock length wheelie monster bike though, its fun.

[DannyBoy]

You probably just sold him on never buying one.  Having the front pop up just makes it more challenging. 

[Ben]

i agree wheelies are fun, but not uncontrollable ones that keep you from climbing

[Ben]

you need to ride joshs bike and see what its like with the wheelies. its sucks when no matter what you do it comes up and you have to stop


besides, what about the drag racing?

[Pete]

drag racing is fun but I really only do it at LS or Silver Lake.  If I get a swingarm it will be one of the last things I do, and then only probably a +2 if I ever did it.

[Ben]

i wouldnt go over +2 either. would compliment your a-arms nicely
