Thats why we are here, to learn and share data. Hopefully everything is salvagable. Be sure to throw some rubber plugs in those frame ends or you wont have a frame for that race quad in the future
the list of things needed is getting pretty small. what about chain rollers? do the stock ones work good? is it the same part for top and bottom? are you guys running the stock or getting the aftermarket spring loaded type?
is this a dumb idea? valve stem doesn't hit with the front rims on backwards, but what if I put the valve stem in backwards ( just to have it look a little more clean) then drilled and added a second valve stem on the side that I want it on. any down side of having 2 valve stems? other than it just looks weird? gonna have things powder coated on Monday. just tyring to get all the fab stuff done before hand.
the stock chain rollers suck. i used the chain rollers off a cr125. works great. as for your rims, if it works, go for it. im no expert and i would hate to hear it not work. but as long as it seals and doesnt leak, it shouldnt be a problem.
I have never tried it , but the valve stem is designed to keep pressure in, putting it in backwards, would it not allow pressure out.
Although the valve assembly is spring loaded, are there chances that some air may escape when the tyre is compressed from striking an object whilst riding, or landing a jump.
Just a wild thought I had.
There will be some slight unbalance of the rim and tyre.
i see what you re saying. blaaster. getting some stuff welded in the morning. gonna talk with my welder and see if he can just weld it shut. should have a video up in 2 weeks. I have a guy to powder coat all the little pieces ( bumper, grab bar, ect) black, still trying to find some one to do the frame either lime or kawi green. one place wanted $300 for just the frame. I ve never had anything powdered before but that sounds expensive. or atleast more than im willing to pay.
just got the call that my powder coating is done (front rims, grab bar, bumper) time to get this thing put back together and running.
got most of it back together today. yesterday I had the swing arm shortened so tonight it ll get painted (while I put a new top end on my younger boys quad) just might have it together tomorrow
got in a few laps at the track today. when they say these engines have no bottom end they re right for sure. although once it gets going it s pretty fast. still got a ton of tuning to do.
I put the single rad on, but it did get hot. not from just the single rad but because one of the hoses got kinked. didn't run it for long so I think it didn't do much damage
does anyone make a brake and clutch lever that is closer to grab. are shorty levers closer or are they just shorter in length?
grr. now having engine problems. didn't wanna start today. fought with it for awhile and finaly got it going but the engine sounded funny. like a rattling sound. I dunno. maybe the water pump.
