Single best mod you've ever done before?

Rebuilding the wiring and hopping the ignition, it makes so much torque from a stock engine that the rear axle carrier unscrews in a couple hard takeoffs. Have to stop and tighten the chain.

1 1/2 amp spark current does wild things to a 2 stroke.

23" Front Tire on the front of my 85 Tri-Z.

How big of a difference does it make, I bought both brand new oem 23" and 25" Z tires.

started using spray on chain lube instead of gear oil

Going from a DG to an ESR ATC-5 Pipe on the 250R. Great performance gain and it's chrome instead of black.

How big of a difference does it make, I bought both brand new oem 23" and 25" Z tires.

My take on it is that it has improved the turning agility. I'm running the 23" stock 86 Z Tire. That tire on the 12" rim pretty much eliminated the sidewall flex that the 25" tire had. It also brings the front end down some which helps too. Mine feels like it slides easier and makes directional changes quicker. My opinion I always thought the stock tire sizes on the 85 Z were too much of a balloon tire for a sport trike. But they do provide a cushy ride. Having an 86 KXT spoils you the way they slide and turn with their stock tires. I also have 18" rears, wheel spacers, and a +2 westcoast swingarm on my Z.

I would have to say that over the years, I have gained the most satisfaction from exhaust upgrades, especially on pingers. Theres just something a little bit magical about seeing how your machine performs after you get it dialed in. Sometimes the difference is night and day - sometimes subtle - but the results are always a different machine from when you started and thats whats so cool about it.

I would say welding a can of WD40 onto the TriZ as a Silencer. Not only does it quiet the exhaust down it sprays WD40 onto the fenders and keeps the mud off.













LMFA, I didn't do it, but the previous owner did.

I got a "tri-fold" ramp at harbor freight for 80 bucks. Before that I was just lifting the trikes into the truck which kinda sucks when you're over 30.

You can see it in the back ground.

That is a nice ramp. Me and my borther, me 13 and him 15 just lift it into the back of his truck. And that isnt the best thing in the world to do. Oh, and by the way nice truck.

Best mod? Hmmmm. Let me think. 5 words. Wires, hoses, & digital wizardry.

[Mosh]

hands down, porting.on any machine makes a huge difference.but that goes hand in hand with a pipe and jet kit.if you have not ported your machine,2 or4 stroke,do it. you will be happy.plus,it is a sleeper mod.no one can see it.

The crate motor I put in my 350X. There is a night and day difference between my 86 and Mike from LI's that is an original, never been apart 86. The starting, shifting, quietness and power make a big difference.

[mike from long island]

putting one of those baja grab bars on my 350x easy as hell to load in to a truck. doesnt tip to one side or the other. have much better control lifting.hey i am over 30 too and dont use ramps. they take up room!!! need that for the beer!!!!!

[hrc85250r]

i would say my best mod was, changing my intake from stock to no airbox/straight k and n, 38mm airstryker, cr intake boot, mossbarger reed cage, reed spacer and porting the intake boot to the reed cage and lightly porting the moss cage... drag pipe and porting would come in a close second and the +4 swinger in 3rd to keep the fornt down....
