Well I got the motor completley riped down tonight.What a mess!The crank bearings are bad,The head is pepered from some bearing materail.Has a new rod on it but who ever pressed the new rod on it didnt press it enough and there is like .65in of play side to side.The cylinder has a huge dent in one of the transfer ports.And there was enough yamaha bond in it to seal up a old harley motor.How do I post pics of my bike?

Busted, click on the tab that says "My Page", when you get there click edit. You should then be able to upload pictures of your work in progress.

Looks like you have your work cut out for you busted. What all are you going to do with it, just the motor for now?

Well I am going to get the motor running first.The cylinder was un touched as far as porting so I am going to port it.Gonna put a cool head on it cuz the old one is trashed.38mm airstriker and a fmf fatty pipe..I want to get some long travel fron arms with about a 3 inch extension outward.Some new shocks,reinforced rims,newer round style swing arm about 1 or 2 inches over stock.New front bumper(cuz its missing) and a 6 pack rack.Its gonna take me a while cuz I got to get my wife a bike to so a little at a time.

Nice pics Kruz.

Hey busted, what kind of bumper are you going to get? I bought a DG from GoldenWestCycle and it took about 4 or 5 months to get it. The nerf and grab bars came within a week but the bumper took forever. Make sure you check to see if they are in stock before you order.

I have been thinking about polishing my stock bumber and putting it back on. I dented up the DG first time out with it on. Hitting the whoops kinda hard mashed it up against the nose of the plastic and frame. I pounded back out pretty easy though and looks fine.

Man, I finally took my stock airbox off today. What a pain in the neck. I thought it would be a 5 minute job. I had to take the plastic off, the pipe, the chain roller and still had to pry it out.

Oh well, now I can get a filter to clamp right on the back of the carb. I think I will go with a uni foam filter. Do they flow as well as the K&N's? It looks like the diameter of the carb is about 2 and 1/8th inches to me.
