  1. We got the front porch finished today after 8 days of sanding and building new hand rails. Now to get the garage back in order & get ready to have our daughters birthday party saturday. Friday is now house cleaning day . After the party I might get to ride. I like the morning temps mid 60's was nice this morning for my short ride time. Porch is done so more ride time for me "O"Boy.
  2. I guess this will remain a mystery
  3. has there been a before and after from stock or ugly to modded / restored
  4. Uglest quad photo contest.
  5. I didn't give up yet. My advice on the head is from my auto background. And that is how you install a head on a car. I feel it should be the same for a quad other wise it is easy to damage the gasket.
  6. I think the ground feel out from under you! What camara do you use thats a great photo.
  7. We didn't feel it. Atlanta news said they could feel it their about 30 miles from us.
  8. Thats great news still running good.
  9. Do you know if you put the rings on the piston in the right order.For the high idle Double check your throttle cable to see if their is an binding sometimes where it goes into the carb can be a little tricky. Does your throttle work smoothley. Even if your head is tight does not mean the gasket did not get damaged when you put it back togather Did you torque everything to specs and with a head you tighten head bolt alittle at a time lets say the specs say 25ft. pounds torque you would set your torque wrench at 10ft. pounds and tighten each head bolt in a cross pattern or x pattern and continue these steps till your at 25ft. pounds. Did you do it this away?
  10. Toilet paper you never no when your going to have to go!
  11. I went and did an internet search all I found was 1 site saying the head gasket would cause this but it only smoked at idle. White smoke is always been moisture. I give up sorry I'm lost on this one. I hope you find the problem & if you do post it please.
  12. Glad you got it fixed. Battery tenders works great I need 2 more of them.
  13. Did you use your old cylinder?
  14. I'm racking my brain here what little I have left. I hope you don't get tired of the question I should do a search on your quad . But here it is. Is it water cooled. How long ago was the rebuild. was it a total motor rebuild.
  15. Goooood Morniiiiiig all of QC hope everyone has a great day!!!
  16. Where is a photo of her? I can't answer a radm poll question if I don't know what she looks like.
  17. I hope I make this very easy for you to make your decisson on what to do. I know we posted part it out. Just go to ebay and price what Raptor parts are selling for some of the parts may shock you for what you could sell them for. You may be able to get more than 800.00. I have a utility and some parts are over a 1000.00 Raptors are big sellers. depending on what it would cost it might be worth fixing either way I would have it checked out before selling it.
  18. If you got it running after that many years thats a good start. If it has set that long the carb will need cleaning. I would go futher rebuilt. Did you buy it or did he give it to you?
  19. I have had 1 of those kind myself. HP Photo smart file 13. Replaced by A Sony. The 2 videos I posted was shot by the Sony I think it done pretty good and I was holding it in my hand while I drove with the other. So now I call it my dual purpose camara.
  20. Was it setting up for while? If so I would say the carb needs to be taken apart and cleaned. They get I guess you could say gummed up inside. I don't feel it would be the head. How does the spark plug look after you run it. Is it wet with gas or oil. Lets see what some other people on here may think. I would not want to go by just what I say. If others agree then that would be the way to go. Get the carb cleaned & then I would change the oil before starting it.
  21. Where is Spanky & buckwheat?
  22. I would say the can-am is your fastest! Very nice ride.
  23. Very nice there! What is the very lush green field they are parked on?
