Rolling again! updated pics

[Blaner]

After 4 months of sitting with a broken a-arm and a bent shock, all is well, in fact better than ever in the Blaster camp!

Set up the new suspension and its running true with good solid equal caster, feels good!

Also swapped back the stock Mikuni 26 carb with 330 main, 35 pilot and banshee needle mid clip, after my endless hassles with the OKO, it pulled clean and strong all the way through on my short burn around the block.

Here are some updated pics:

how do you like the yfz shocks?

 

[speedemon17]

thts neat where u put tht stabilizer mount

 

[slickerthanyou]

Looks good brutha! What is the electric on the front hub for? speedo?

 

[Blaner]

ya Slick its my speedo, its actually a bicycle one shows me top speed, average speed, distance, riding time and of course the time

I like the YFZ shocks, this pair belonged to my brothers YFZ and im using my old springs, the shocks seem to be valveda lot softer than my previous set which I bent, which is nice! either hat or its the extra leverage im putting on them with the wider arms.

the stabilizer is also inherited from my bro, It looks and seems to work there, il keep an eye on it to see it it touches anywhere

smart man, yes brakes line are not on yet, waiting for you americans to send me some, they somewhere over the atlantic ocean at the moment!

As for brand, i assume you mean a-arm brand? i actually dont know, they also from the states and appear to be a set of Full Flight arms!

Gotta hate overseas shipping...

I think bruce was wondering what brand tires you were going to get for the front.

 

[blasterBruce]

Yes i was asking about what brand tires , but its okay

 

[79 bronco]

Looking great bro!!!!

 

[Blaner]

tires im not sure about, will wait a while for new ones, they pretty pricey. the ones on there are stock YFZ dunlop radials which are very light

 

[blasterBruce]

I just Unmounted a pair Of Kenda Klaw Mx Fronts that are 20-6-10 , they are in good shape and light like stock dunlop , but I'll be using a pair of 22-7-10 maxxis razr2's there a little heavier but not too bad

 

[Larry's Shee]

I see from your sig that they are +2 wider, are the arms + forward? All said and done, would you do anything different for installation fab? Would you just start out with +2 arms? What about +2 long travel & longer shocks? How does the handleing differ from previous arms?

 

[blasterdemon7]

Glad you got it going. Are you the same member that had the hit and run at the track ?

 

[ChrisZx7]

Bike looks real nice, i like the upgrades.

 

[Blaner]

No hit and run for me..dont know anything about that!

@Larry: Well in terms of Fabbing, maybe I would could have focused more on caster setup, however, the adjustability of the new arms allows for caster correction. Definately wouldnt mind getting a set of 450 works triple rates or something for the front.

Ball joints are all a bit stiff, this makes the steering a bit heavy. il have to wait till they wear in. I have greased them and they loosened up quite a bit.
