Hello to all fellow Blaster owners.
First off, thanks for the site, lots of help here.
I've been riding/modifying one thing or another my entire life. I bought this '98 Blaster off ebay 7 years ago and it was a disaster... totally misrepresented as a complete rebuilt engine... long story short; all the JB weld that had been carefully engineered to look like actual metal (painted over) came apart within 1 hour of getting the quad home, along with the balance shaft bolt and sprcket coming off! Seller would do nothing, eBay is a joke. Frustration led to a pile of parts until last weekend when I started cleaning the garage. Anyway, here it is so far... New everything, custom frame paint, new style plastics, twist throttle, 30mm carb, hydraulic brakes front and rear, etc. more on the way!
Anyway, thanks for the help along the way. After reading a bunch of info last week I decided I might as well join, try to return the favor if I can.
