Big Scrub is my favorite. Never crowded and a solid camp site. I believe they have indoor bathrooms. Trails are a stone's throw from the site

this place has a lot of stuff for atvs and motorcyels. I recently picked up a fuel pump for my bike

Hey, I just re-painted my 1985 Honda Magna V30. My buddy and I spent about 30 hours on this project. The original color was a black gloss.

This WWII themed paint job. Specifically, its design pays homage to the "Flying Tiger" fighter jets of WWII. The Flying tigers were one of the first squadrons to start painting the jaws on their planes. This bike is also a commemoration to my grandfather who was a paratrooper in the 504th. The letter number sequence on the right fairing was on one fo the C-47's that my grandfather jumped out of. This was my first paint job. I had a blast doing it and I could not have done it without my good friend John.  The tiger on the left fairing is a sticker...everthing else was stenciled on.

Enjoy.

yea i would reccomend doing it yourself. The rebuilt kits are cheap. Plus youll never have to take it to the dealer again for your carbs.

Sounds like your main jet is clogged/dirty. It is NOT a hard job to do it. Save yourself the money and do it your self.  Does your bike sputter/backfire when it is reving dow? If you removed the air box lid and it runs fine then you may be running on the rich side (when your lid is on). Taking the lid off will increase your air flow. To solve this you could leave your lid off or you can tinker with your pilot screw in order to leab your bike out. If you are feeling uncomfortable doing it yourself buy a manual online for $6. They are easy to mess with.

My guess is your carb needs to be cleaned on the whole.

is it fuel injected or carbeurated?

I wanna go!  Anyone wanna ride that weekend???

Cool, glad to here it ,there will be alot of fun there.Tell your friends.we should have our web site up soon
www.omegaranchatvpark.com what kind of machine do you ride??

I ride a 400EX, mostly trail riding and a liil mud...

I wanna go!  Anyone wanna ride that weekend???

On Saturday that is

Let me know where that is and I might join you

No it doesnt really matter, You will get mor torque but a little less speed.  How is the chain?

In terms of labor...Probally 3-4 hours break down. And another 3-4 hours of rebuild.  Assuming 60$/hour in labor... Then you are looking at 350$ - 500$ not including parts. As long as you are down there I would replace the piston. A piston kit And a top end gasket kit is what you are looking for

Yes, ONF is Ocala National forest. They are open all of the time and emply an "honor box" system. Very nice trails out there and not crowded.

where is that exactly?

That sounds prettu cool. Not going to head there this weekend, little far for me. But, i will definitely check it out sometime. yall have fun and be safe

scary....

I have a slightly modified 400 ex.   What about urself?

What is it like out there at Holopaw? Riding conditions? Fees? Others riders etc... I read a little bit a out it. Who owns the property? Thanks for the info

Hey,

I am going riding next Sunday (Jan 16) somthwere in North Central/ Central Florida. I am down to gown anywhere in this area, ONF, Croom, Rancho etc... Let me know if you wanna ride and we can tear it up. Just got my bike put back together and I just wanna ride. 352-213-2006

i wish...  replacing my timing chain and can chain tensioner

Yea there were several things going on, The timing chain was really stretched, the valves were off and the tensioner was broken, dont know how it managed to run, but should be up to to specs in a few days

I am pretty sure it is the timing chain... what do you think??

400 EX timing chain and or valves vid # 2?

400EX timing chain ticking noise

Whats the clock speed on the i7 950? I run a an old Q6600 quad core at 2.4 GH.  The only thing that would improve your performance (marginally) would be to run an SLi configuraton. but its not necessary with your card.


nice set up BTW

I am going riding at "Rancho" by Zephryhills tomorrow. Hit me up if you wanna ride
