pics of the Diamond J Customs kit off a quad

[BlasterAzores]

I´ve been a good boy this year, maybe Santa Claus will bring me a set of "ASR Yamaha Blaster +3 up 1 Pro Series Racing A-Arms", $500 for the set and $200 for shipping and customs fees. (I hate being my own Santa. lol)

About that DJ kit, and all the discusion going on, one thing is certain, if you take 2 blaster´s, one on stock front and one on DJ kit and banshee shocks, the DJ kit on banshee shocks will ALWAYS win. Period.

HO by the way, do you guys remenber we are talking about BLASTERS ?
This little toy will improve with any shi... we aplly to it.
Yes its a small very very very fun toy to ride, this is not a big gun like a Yamaha 450r or a Suzuki 450lt or a ktm 450.... Real racing machines, These are the ones that where build to race....
Never the less a Blaster will always be a Blaster, i think we can all agree on how much fun a Blaster is, perfect machine for starters.

I was under the assumtion that wheel center line to spindle pivot has more to do with bump steer. Like when you flip the front wheel the center line is moved out more from the spindle adding to bump steer. Not how the A arms mount to the frame, Which from what I under stood affects wheel travel not bump steer. But I can see how the JD kit can mess with suspension geometry. Good A arms take this in to account when they bend them if they want to be the best product possible. Just my 2cents & opinion.

Bealive me i made the math on that.
save some money, buy all the parts (shocks, axle, A-arms, etc..) in one trip, but kept on bumping on the same 2 problems, the trip alone is up to $600 and then, theres luggage weigh limit issue... so i just keep burning money anyway............ B) and they check our luggage at the airport customs B)
I:I But no hurrys, i´m 35 years, family man runing on family buget you know, this is purely for fun, so things will keep coming up, just need the time and the $$$... not to mention i promisse the wife ill do some work on our sidekick

$283 to ship it to portugal?

 

[370]

I tough so too, but nooooo.... Customs oficials say ( and i look it up on the law book) even as a gift we still have to pay fees, if we dont have an invoice, they will find out the commercial value and charge us for it...

$283 to ship it to portugal?

......$153.40 for shipping / $130 on customs... = $283.... Just like that Bro.

I wonder why everything as to be sent airmail, nobody sents this stuff by Boat, bet it´s a lot cheapper and i would not mind waiting for it.

all imports from the US, way to expensive and most of them only by order... cheaper on ebay, even with shipping and fees.
Best of all, my local Yamaha Dealer dindt even know of aftermarket parts for the Blaster.

I´ll just take it easy.
