dirtysquared · Jul 15, 2015

Damn nice build! Great choices on everything you have done so far. The Black and yellow really looks good.

Way to start off a build, great job ! You really aren't going to realize it is a Blaster anymore by the way it handles and with the xtra ponies and all. I also dig the Black and Yellow color scheme..

Thanks for all the compliments guys. it has been a real fun build so far. I got the handgrips and levers put on yesterday along with the hand guards...these pro taper bars don't leave much room to install any added goodies

I also did the timing advance mod

I'm not sure if your mind works like mine, but you left this open for some good, funny replies....lol

And I love riding Mio. Luzerne has become my number one place to ride above all. Can't wait to get back up there.

WMBlast63 · Jul 16, 2015

Yes Dave that's why I posted it like that...

With the head rechamber you dont want to run +4 advance. detonation can occur.

i believe the last person that had +4 before the head work switched his to +2 to be safe with it

That's exactly what I did. I feel a lot safer!

Sounds like you need a friend check!

If you are referring to the guy that wrecked the quad, he was no friend of mine but friends with my son in law and daughter. ...needless to say we won't be leaving any quads with them next time

Bike looks great so far! I have never really been a quad kind of guy until I picked up my project blaster (we'll see how it goes lol), but always rode our dirt bikes and snowmobiles around Lakes of the North, Mancelona, Lewiston areas. Good Times.

We fellow Michiganders should plan a ride some weekend.

If you are a bit handy, which you seem by going by the looks of the build. You should read a little on squish and how to check it etc. It's fairly easy and can be done with some plumbers solder a little elbow grease, and a flat file, some sand paper and a thicker piece of glass.

Setting the squish correctly will untap some xtra ponies you have. You can do this before you decide to do the head rechamber and it is something you can easily do yourself. (you are basically just filing off a little material on the head where it mates to the head gasket).

If interested I can post some links on the subject and maybe even a how to..

Everyone should really be doing this. It's free power..
