sell it up there and come back and get a newer 5K bike..:naughty: support our crapp econo...

[Kintore]

haha thought HAD crossed my mind!

[twgranger]

one mod you might want to do is the oil squirt mod for the crank bearing. 2004-2006 dont get mutch oil to the bearing and the motor tends to blow. 2007 and up come from the factory with the squirt mod. thought i would give you a heads up. ;) if you go to yfzcentral there is alot of usefull info on that mod.

heres my 06, by the way, she is foresale too.

[Kintore]

Thanks for the heads up, ill see what i can find on there, just became a memeber yesterday. Do I need to tear my motor apart to do this?

[350Xhilaration]

Josh, I saw this online. Looks like a pretty good resource. Thanks to Adam at www.pdratv.com

[350Xhilaration]

Looks great Josh!!

You look into the oil squirt mod yet?

[Razgriz-Fighter]

Looking good Ball:beer

I think Kooter and I will be coming down with Mel, but I'm not sure yet. Try to get some pics and what not of ya.

Did you do anything with the tie-rods???

[Kintore]

Looks great Josh!!

yah, hoping it holds together a few races then its off in may

[evand]

coming along awsome man, how do you like the mxr's? im thinking about a set for the z

[Kintore]

I love them, BUT i think it would be way too much site bite for a trike IMO. Ive already 2 wheeled it bad hard cornering and im leaning like im on a trike.

[evand]

Hmm good to know man, i heard that from "someone who heard it from some one who knows someone whos uncle has mxr4's" so ill believe you lol.

thanks for the info:beer
Evan

[Kintore]

Wish me luck!
First race tomorrow at 9 30.....

Pics/Results/Track layout to come.

[Kintore]

Well, ill start out with the track layout...


Main holeshot to a sweeper left hander, into a tight right hander over a big ass single. Then a tight right to the whoops, sweeper right to a 40 double, right turn to a straight away with a a 35 double at the end, big sweeper left over a large single. Straight away to 5th gear then a TIGHT right hander and another straight away to a knarly left hander. After that came a massive tabletop(bikes couldnt clear it!) then a massive sweeper to a 60 table.

The new yfz is a holeshot machine, i love it!

so the first moto-
rolled it off a 60 table first race, was in 4th, ended up in last, after i came to my senses i was off the track and disoriented as hell so i was a DNF pretty much

and the 2nd moto i was in 4th as well and got pushed into a 4foot high sand berm(damn bikes), so i bottomed out and got stuck, ended up last (23rd) and got pissed and passed to 14th by the end and ended up with a 19th outa 23rd overall or something

Gripper seat, and fox floats and arms and deffo a priority.

Riding a trike really helped in the turns though, i was staying with ltrs all done up with a stock width and stock suspended bike

[300rman]

how would you rate that 4 stroke with the raw power of that duncan motor?

you still racin that trike? that would kick ass if you could run that trike with the quads and whip their asses lol.

[Razgriz-Fighter]

lol Yea, but stupid Ontario wont allow him to run his trike :cry: We were saying that he should hop on Casper and try it out,haha

You did good for your first actual race Ball, little different riding a trike for what, 4-5 years than coming to 4 wheels and 4 stroke. Would have done a lot better too if it wasnt for the fricken 2' deep ruts and the soft sand with 18's on the rear :wondering

Next race I'll be sure to get some pictures so you can post em up on here and what not and you taking the win!

:w00t:

[Kintore]

Oh yah, dirt track I know ill kick some ass and take names. Love the powersliding business and a trike makes you perfect at it.
Next race is this coming weekend, not sure im im going (snowed out!)

Thanks din din, i wanna see you out there with me and roundballs haha



Josh Ball-

Balls out Racing!
