I do more rebuilding than riding but it sounds great! You won't be riding that blasty will you... don't think I would be able to see with the shine off that thing!

I live in kissimmee actually. where do you guys ride and how big is your group.

yup i know what you mean about listening. guys on here said to check for leaks and i never got around to it. so a couple days ago i pulled my head off to sand it down so it wasnt warped anymore (the thing where you put it on oiled sandpaper and do the figure 8 pattern about 300 times) and put it back together without changing my head gasket. well i started it and it idled for a second the i heard a pop and it died. now very little compresion. im hoping it just needs a new gasket but well see. point is... listen to blasterforum members about airleaks and stuff. they know their stuff

right on. by the way it is called lapping. it's the last time i run a crank i am unsure about.

Ow, hard lessons are the ones you remember though! I learn so much more from my mistakes.

 

[scotj77]

been learning hard lessons on this thing for about a year now. It will run again! the way I want it to.

 

[bagds101]

lapping... i had the word in my mouth but it wouldnt come out
