Is anyone going to mess with their quad this summer?


Not me, it ran fine last season and don't want to mess with it. Only thing I might do is get a new steering stem, the stock one is a little bent from my crash last T-Day.

Nothing for the 09-R.

Waiting for controls for the 04. Ready to start. Battery charged and full of fluids.
Eventually get a shock that is more capable for the +6 arm, but that is another paycheck I don't have right now.

Well, I have things to do with Islandgirl's and Little_Gunz_.

Islandgirl needs a new battery and carb needs to be cleaned.

Little_Gunz_ needs the carb cleaned.

Stupid carbs!

I still need to buy a bunch of exhaust wrap. If I would have thought of it, I should have got it and pulled all the exhaust and taken them to the beach. Mmmm, exhaust pipes and red beer.
And the radiator on the R1. If you see a smoken' deal on a 660 extended trailing arm.....
Just regular servicing otherwise.

Mine didn't get much use - I just have to bolt on a few things:

The big steering dampner I bought last year and haven't put on.
My color-matched rings on my Hyper's.
. . . and I still need to flip my rear sprocket to the other side of the do-hickey that holds it.

Probably a grand total of an hour . . . just gotta find an hour . . .

Take a look at this one, Raptor 660 +16 swingarm.. It does not use any bearings in the pivot ends & is a no-link type.. $235.00 shipped or feel free to make an offer.. But in his last post, he's brought the price down to $200 shipped.

Got things all back together on the 523 this w/e. Cranked over. Didn't fire though.
Need to check the spark plug, fuel line, carb, etc.

Nothing in the mail today so I emailed the guy. Not sure what happened but I guess 2 of us sent him money and he sent the swinger to the other guy. WTF?

That sucks, I'll keep looking around for another good deal for you.

That's funny! I can get one made by a few manufacturers for $400. And then I have to buy a chain, chain guide, brake line, shock....

Now that the steering stem is fixed, time to buy a case of oil and change the oil in all three quads. Also, still need to buy a new battery for Islandgirl's quad. Time is running down, time to get working on the quads, desert season is right around the corner. :cheers:drink2DSD Roll

Two new batteries came in this past weekend for the Suzuki's. Replaced stock for stock on the 250 but upgraded the 400 to a battery for the LTR450. Worked on both tonight and got both running fine. Took a little while to dial in Islandgirl's quad, I hate carburetors. But after a few tear downs and cleaning, got it running like it should.
