  1. Yeah, i'm really surprised my friends warranty coverd something that was general maintanance like the chain. Thats like saying "hey i never chainged the oil and my engines knocking will you give me another" :laugh:

  2. I'm wondering what my Tri-z will be putting out when i get it fixed. I found a place that is gonna do port and polish and mill the head. I would almost bet it was putting out at least low to mid 50's before and there's no telling what its gonna do when i start running better gas with a slightly bigger piston ports and head mill, its gonna be crazy. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock2: :shock2: :shock2:

  3. I like doing long wheelies on pavement, it's scary thinkin about what would happen if you went backward at 70mph, but i can go much farther on pavement. I've topped my z400 out on the back two wheels several times on pavement, but then i look back and go "wow it's a good thing i didn't lose that wheelie.:err:

  4. I always keep about one inch of play in mine, with my weight on it, so what stoopidbot says is right, cause it cinches up a bit with weight. and the same thing happend to my buddy's KFX, the chain came off and slapped his shift sensor, so his neutral?reverse light quit working, he's lucky he had a warranty, or the chain didn't bust the case. But his is brand new and they are putting a new block on his because it was going to have to be welded. He lucked out major.

    I want to know about your 85 1/2 Z!!!!!!!!!!!:sifonec::partyc::bannana_guitar::cheer2::ola::woot:

    WELCOME TO THE BOARD!!!!!:biggrin:

    I've been wondering about yours myself, sorry this took so long too btw. Ok mine is currently in the rebuild process, but it has a full-frame powdercoat, 36mil Mikuni flat-slide carb, 5" wheel spacers, Douglas rims with 20" Razrs that are about to be replaced. A full DG pipe and silencer, Metallic red paint job as you can see in the pic. The kickstart, shifter, footpegs and headlight frame-thing are all chromed, i go it set up with a Uni clamp-on filter, and it's got a motion pro twist throttle kit which i'm not real fond of. But i'm taking the top end tommorow for a guy to look, another week or two and i'll have the money to pay him. It's gonna get port and polish, with a milled head and a slightly bigger bore, problly around .030 to .050 over with a wiseco. I cant wait to get her done, i'm close now to having it back in running order.

  6. This is true, i voted 5-speed, but i really wish that one of the companies would go back to a 6-speed, there's a few models like the 350 Raptor and TTR-230 that have it, and a bunch of the KTM bikes, but i wish it was more popular, IMO it gives you a better ride, just because you have a gear for every situation, though they may rap out a bit quicker, and 5-speeds are plenty, i just like the feel of them.
