Figured this was the best place to start on the forum. Recently acquired a 1998 blaster. My dads friend hired me to do some work to get it running after it sat uncovered since 2001, the engine was seized, all the cables were a rusted mess. the crankcase was also full of water, as was the bottom end. i was told to get it going for as cheaply as possibe, and i did so. about 20 dollars went into water displacers, a bit more for all new cables and levers. a gasket kit and this thing runs again. after contacting the owner a few times since completion in search of reimbursement for the parts and time i put into this machine, he seemsuninterested and now hasnt talked to me in over a month regarding it.
at first this was a burden, id like he money to put towards my dirtbike, but the more i ride this thing, the more i see that keeping it wouldnt be all that bad. just here to learn more about the quad and some mods in general. i plan on making it a "loaner" type deal for my friends in the summer when i trade in the dirtbike for another quad to replace my banshee.
