after a rebuild do you...

[Antec1200X]

ok i was thinking after you's rebuild your blasters and took it out for the first rip after break in.
as your ripping at top speed did you think "did i remember to tighten all the bolts on this thing?"
or was your quad just not fast enuff for you to think that way?

I fret for the first two rides or so about every little thing I put together.

After that, if it hasn't flown apart, it probably won't!

 

[Antec1200X]

its a poll.lol
but yeah i was thinking the same.was like "oh sh*t did i remember to tighten all the bolts"
funny thing was i forgot to put the pins in the rear wheels and when i got it home the rear bolts were loose lol

I should be ok. I'm putting it all together dry, then take it all apart and threadlock it all. And I'm not in a huge hurry so I'll be able to make sure everything is good.

my first ride is always on the MX track... so yeah... you tend to think about those things for the first couple laps lol...

was worried a bit, but it hasn't let me down so far so i let her rip. funny thing though the first ride i forgot to put the cotter keys back in the hubs as well. found some nails and made her work just for the day.

Exactly the way I feel.

I bought my banshee and took it out a few days later for a ride , didn't even notice it only had 2 lug nuts on each front wheel , and the rears only had 3
needless to say when its back together It will be ship shape and dune ready . I always think of my buddy who has a 450R with everything on it pro armor makes for it , its armored to the teeth , and he's the only guy in our group to have a magic branch make its way through all that and get lodged 6 inches into his calf muscle ( forgot his boots that trip ) .
If its gonna happen its gonna happen , not much you can do about that .

I know I tightened all the bolts so I don't have much concern. I'm more interested in air leaks that might bust out once it gets to operating temps so I just keep an eye on that.

For me it's a bit differant because its my son that rides it after I put it back together. I definatley worry, it's a bad feeling when something happens and its my fault...like when he flipped 3 times because the nerf bolts came out. I double and tripple check his bike everytime before he hits the track, but sh*t happens

I will be a 100% sure everything is tight and correct before I ride. Everthing will be checked once a week after the first ride . If your not a 100% sure, don't ride .
