ya, its really hard to find parts for the lt's. thats definitly a downfall. but there also usually cheaper then the trx's because of popularity.
after 8 weeks of waiting for my works shock to get shipped and arrive, just got notice that they cleared customs comin into canada!!! shouldnt be long now!!!
all im gonna say is screw you atvGalaxy...

its like christmas is May. finally got my new shocks. put them on and tried to go for a ride but the wheeler was actin up. found out the head gasket is leaking so gotta fix that first. but from what i can tell from bouncin in and out of some ditches there amazing! bumps that usually jolt me were barely noticable!
and there threaded preload compared to my old ones on my banshee with the clip. also these are made for my weight so they feel great. top notch work

just put the new gasket in. ill check later to see if i got any coolant layin around and hopefully i can have her rippin tomorrow. feels like it got a bit more compression now, the old gasket was an absolute mess. glad i caught the leak before it got out of hand.
oh baby! got the new head gasket on and got her runnin again and i have been fiddlin with jettin for a while. musta had a small air leak cuz now it runs sooooooooooo much smoother and pulls harder too! everything has just fallen into place now and she runs beautiful with no sputtering from top to bottom!!! and it finally idles properly

just snagged a fmf header for free. my buddy got it with his new lt250r as a spare. i helped him work on it cuz its a bit dicked, so he said i could just take it. it was rusted to f**ck but i used a wire brush on a grinder and some rubbing polish and threw it on. bumped the main jet up a size and its running really well. took it out on wet pavement and it definitely quicker, spun the tires like crazy though, cant wait to try it when it dries up.
my dg pipe was essentialy the same as stock, and like a "left bend" pipe for a blaster. this fmf resembles a right bend pipe for a blaster.

just tested it out. bottom end is the same or worse, but after that it just snaps into some nice power. much quicker then the dg pipe

just installed the tusk clutch kit (steel and friction plates) along with HD springs, also filed off some of the grooves in the basket. havent ridden it yet but i let it idle in my garage and i must say the clutch feels beautiful. drops into gear with absolutley no grabbing, where before it would stall or roll forward if i was on the gas a bit. and i can find neutral insanly easy. very pleased with the improvment for 45 bucks.
when i did mine, i noticed Huge improvement in shifting. what type of trans oil are you using? cant wait to see some pics of it rippin again!!!!
