New a-arm skids, and comp test on 20yr old cylinder

[specialized7]

Alright well i had this "watch for children" sign laying around, so i decided to cut some a arm guards outta it.
here they are

And i did a compression test today, i figured it would be low since im running the stock piston from factory, and its over 20 years old.

yo you can have some of my 170psi. race gas is to f*cking expensive lol.

 

[blasterman87]

yeah must not have been ridden much over the years

 

[specialized7]

hahah, arent you running the 240 kit?
did you do anything to the head?

and the skids were pretty easy to make all i used was a jig saw with a metal carbide blade to cut them.
then put them in the vice and beat them silly with a rubber mallet.
then i took the sander to them and painted the tops black
