Top Tier Tri-z - REINCARNATED

[Mosh]

I got my K/N from J&L atv.

I either got the part# RU1700(2 and 1/4" carb size) or part # RU1750(2 and 7/16th" carb size)I honestly dont remember which one it was.Cant find the reciept either.

The are both 3 and 1/2 inches diameter;4 inches long and a 20 degree boot kick-up.You just need to measure your intake flange on your carb O/D,to order the right one.

[honda250sx]

how bout you pm Nathan find out.

Nathan thanks for the great pic's. Ever decide if you had a bottom end that you want to part with?

[03 ORANGE SHEE]

i have both jeff, i have cases and the internals. heres the BUT. dan dale on .org is buying the turbo crank, so the cases are at the machine shop with the crank. but yes i can sell a bottom end less the crank if need be,or you can buy the cases .

i have two types of shaws, the comp is the greatest hooking shock for dirt drags ive rode. i have the chrome coil over version too, but it rebounds way to fast, the comp comes up very, very slow. so slow that in 300 ft, it almost back to the top at the end of the run!
the shock pics are on two differnet tri-z's, even though they look like the same bike.

Coming home to boxes of parts is the best thing in life haha. Got back into town this week and had my new PRM bumper at the house. Along with a bunch of billet intakes for anodizing from the sprock man! Got the bumper mounted up. As always another quality piece from the guys in Oregon. No bending, filing, cutting and tweaking. Just a few stainless bolts and painless installation.



Also took sometime to mount up the YFZ450 L.E.D. tail light that i snagged for this build. I utilized the stock mounting holes on the back side of the tail light. I drilled and tapped the mounting holes on the tail light to an M6x1.00mm bolt. I then used the stock tail light rubbers for the Tri-Z to mount it. Once those were bolted to the tail light i used the mounts for the rear tank guard as a mounting point. Two longer stainless bolts and some washers and she is rubber mounted and ready for battle!

Looking good i like the YFZ450 L.E.D. and the PRM bumper

Well after playing with the airfilter options I have lowered it down to either a style like moshmans or the cold air intake aluminum tube style. I am trying to locate the tubing that these cold air systems use on cars. Anyone know where it can be purchased? Then i could mount a K&N in the stock location.

Got my Waterpump back in the mail today from Dirtcrasher aka Steve. Which those of you who have never dealt with or pm'd back and forth is a great dude, not to mention knowledgable in just about anything and everything. I sent him my pump to have it pinned. Came back just as I expected. High quality job complete with a stainless steel roll pin. Great job Steve. I really appreciate you doing this for me.


I decided to throw together a collection of pictures on putting one of these pumps back together. I know alot of guys have experienced the failure and alot of guys inquire on how to do it. Here we go.

First off I made sure the journal where the shaft rides was free of burs and any damage that may have been caused by the removal of old mechanical seals in its life time. I just lubed up the seal with a little BELRAY waterproof grease and tapped it in with a seal driver of adaquate size. Be sure to have WATERSIDE facing out.


Once the seal was installed I lubed the inside of the mechanical seal with some more Bel Ray waterproof grease. Here is the parts that are required to do the job. I purchased all brand new parts.


With the shaft now installed thru the clutch cover it is now time to flip the cover over. Install the washer on the pump shaft and then insert the dowel pin.


Next install the water pump gear to the pump shaft. Notice the retention area for the dowel pin on the backside of the gear. That goes face down onto the shaft so that the shaft can be mechanically driven by the gear.


With the gear installed, the last thing to do is install the e-clip that retains everything on the shaft. Once that is done the job is complete. Do not forget when installing the cover to put the washer back on the end of the shaft before fitting to the crankcase. The washer is easily retained with a dab of grease and installed.


Thanks again DirtCrasher for supplying your services

Your very welcome

I still say those impellers need to be made out of aluminum and pressed onto a stainless steel or stock shaft. And I'd still either pin or key them......

Good talking to ya Jeff.....

hey steve where did you learn to pin those?
