Bill ; Did you go with the SLIP-ON or FULL SYSTEM ?.....Is the jetting with a QUEIT Core installed or with out it ?.....Did you do the CAM MOD or leave it alone ?.....What AIR BOX mod did you do ? (lid on - lid off..K/N filter - foam filter)..... Air/Fuel screws, how many turns out ? (2.5/3.25).....NEEDLE CLIP position, how many notches from the top ? (3 or 4). Thanks in advance for any info!!!! Jim

I,m getting ready to convert mine into the uncontrolable beast that it was meant to be!!!!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I went with the slip-on, with the not so quiet core installed. No cam mods, airbox lid off w/ stock filter until middle of next month. I ended up with 3 1/4 turns out on the pilot screw, neeedle is at 3rd from top. I'll get more info from the "sniffer" tomarrow. A tech at work is going to do an exhaust sniff for me.

These things (yfz450) come stock with a 158 main in them. Before the rejet it would lean pop while starting. Problem is now solved.


Is anyone riding today?

 

Well guys I think a trip to Aledo Texas Quad drags is in order for this weekend to see how the southern brothers run. No bikes, just fly down & watch. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

WEll we made it back from Sand Lake!!! We had a BLAST I'm ready to go back, heck I was ready to stay for the week!!! We left Thurs. night LATE as Ron's parents had motorhome trouble, it was kinda funny cuz they wanted to travel together since ours & my bro's are old ones & thiers is a new fancy pusher, well needless to say they didn't make it down there due to a hole in the radiator[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] we had to drop it off @ the Cummins dealer in Renton about midnight Thur. he was hoping they could fix it Fri morning but that was a no go so they told us to go on w/o them so we did. We ended up staying in the noisiest rest area around, got woke up by some trucker slammin on his brakes down the freeway that was freaky not sure what happened!! Anyway we arrived @ Sand Lake Fri around noonish that place was PACKED!!!! All the spots were taken so we though well we'll go out on the sand LOL, Bobby took off 1st, well he didn't let air outta his tires so needless to say we dug him out & pulled him the rest of the way out w/ our motorhome, so we decided to be patient & park & wait for an hour or so for people to leave & it worked out great we were in the last parking lot & got 2 spots right next to each other so that was nice especially for Sat. night can you say DOWN POUR man we woke up thinking the roof of the bus was coming down LOL, it rained almost all day but we rode anyway I wasn't gonna waste my time down there hehehee. My nephew Justin blew his 250R up about an hour after we got there, we sent him & DJ out for a ride. But I will have to say my 300 & the blaster did AWESOME down there!!!!! BILL THANK YOU FOR THE TIRES!!! DJ had a blast racing up the hills, he beat some blasters,warriors,& stayed right w/ a piped 400 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] then he took mine out & I guess beat some 300's, I would hope so cuz I'm pretty sure they were stock LOL, My tires I used actually did good,I used my bro's 20" Duro's instead of my 18's, once I got rolling they were great I even climbed the hills that scared the crap outta me a few yrs back on the 4x4 LOL, went up all the big whoopie hills those were fun, DJ & I practiced our whoop riding alot [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Ron had fun on the Oddessy, he rolled it once LOL, he was trying to flattrrack it on the beach hehe, I missed the wipe out [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] I was out playing [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Trevor's little LEM was a hoot out there, once we pushed/pulled him thru the deep sand & got him on the beach he was WFO baby, had a little track set up for the little kids he was even gettin er a little sideways, on purpose too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] now for my brothers 250R WELL that thing is just insane, I was hauling down the flats then all of a sudden I hear this 2 stroke screaming up behind me, well it went by so friggin fast then as he's going BAM he shifts up another gear [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] LOL needless to say him & Justin ate LOTS of Banshees [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] not too mention some other things, he even beat a CR250 dirt bike!! Sat. night we sent Justin(oddessy) & DJ (blaster) out about dusk for a ride told them to be back in 1/2 hr. well they weren't coming so Bobby was just getting his helmet to go look for them when here they come, well as they were heading out, they got pulled over by the sheriff for, no tailights to begin w/ but by the time she was done it was also, no tabs,no adult w/ them,no driver license those 2 boys were SOOOOO scared I would of loved to been in the bushes watching it all LMAO she gave them warnings & sent them back to camp w/ her following them, I guess the oddessy wouldn't make it up the hills as she was following them w/ a spotlight they said it was pretty funny!! I had forgot to get tabs @ the last minute OOPPPSSS & as for tailights I had mine on but the bulb musta been dead!! So we are gonna be framing the warning tickkets hahaha
So it was a good trip we left there yesterday about 5:30pm & got home about midnight!! I REALLY REALLY wanna go back it was soooooo nice even w/ the rain to not come home w/ muddy quads & mudd all over everything!! Now it's time to dig the sand outta every crack on the quads!!!

 

So boys n Girls which is better? Sand Lake or Horsefall-Spiningreel? I been to horsefall a few times. even with horses. imagine that. whats the terrain at sandlake like? And is it ever not crowded?

 

sounds like fun!

 

Horsfalls...Spinreel...Sandlake, in that order IMO.

(whats the terrain at sandlake like?) closer beach access, not as nice as Horsfalls, Spinreel.

(And is it ever not crowded?) YES it gets real crowded on weekends!!!!!!

 

Depending on your likes, Winchester has some of the best hill climbs, and no beach. I think Horsfall-Spinreel is best for families, and folks with a little experience, but not necessarily in need of a beach (far away). Florence has about the best overall selection with a little bit for everybody, including a closer beach with more to do on it. Sandlake is closest to Wash., and very family-friendly, with close beach access and a one-way trail ride which is definitely safer for kids (if everybody obeys the signs) but is small, and usually busier (except during the week).

 

I am so jealous, I've been thinking about going down there for a couple of years, meeting 14mins and Bob Craycraft and all the Texas boys. That's what they do with their quads down there, Drag Race, probably more than leisure riding. Have fun, enjoy yourself.

I like Horsfall and Sandlake, both. I havn't been to the middle ones yet.
