today is my sons birthday can i get him in on that spanking train?

 

Joel,
Thanks for use of your wrenches. Those axle nuts are so tight I still haven't been able to break them loose. Working up a sweat trying and had to take a break. Nice to meet you and talk with you. We will definately have to go for a ride or MANY RIDES! Put the 13t on the 450R, now I need to try it out.
Well, I guess I'll back to the garage and try to break that nut loose one more time!

 

Techtip What color is the shee? I have some banshee parts I didn't sell with my old one, so maybe Adam can bring you by to check out the loot. Nerf bars, lowering kit, aftermarket seat and cover Thats off memory but ,there is alot more.

 

Sure, Just have your sons freinds line-up (like a train legs open) then he has to crawl thru and each person gets to give a birthday SWAT......

make sure the crawl thru is going in the right direction or he will have a very bad HEADACHE..!!!!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

 

Rod, If the wrench won't do it you'll have to try a hammer and chisel. Its not a good option but it will work.

 

Thanks for the b-day wishes everyone. I don't think I need any b-day spankings though. My a$$ already hurts enough from the race yesterday. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Val,
It’s ok, don’t feel too bad for me. This race was what I wanted to do for my b-day. Being sore is just one of the consequences for someone my age. lol [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I checked out the craptor today, and to my amazement, she survived both of yesterday's crashes very well. There was no real damage, just a couple more scratches to add character. I may have to stop referring to her as a craptor. That's three crashes in a month and no damage.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I wish I could say the same for myself!

Anyway, what happened was I had just passed through the wind whoops. I was following another quad in 4th gear. We got to a really choppy area that was also extremely dusty. I couldn't see anything. I should have slowed down, but I didn’t. I was still going through a lot of chop and the next thing I knew, I went off one of those stupid little drop off’s, nose dived, and the craptor sent me flying. I don’t know for sure (because I closed my eyes when I hit the ground) but I think the craptor rolled. When I got up, it was about 20 feet away from me, rubber side down, and pointed in the opposite direction. I didn’t feel any pain right away; I was more worried about how embarrassing it would be if anyone saw me! I was really glad that the bike started up right away because that would have been a long walk back to the pits. But the more I rode, the more it hurt. By the time I got back to the pits I could hardly hold on to the handlebars. I do have to consider myself lucky, it could have been much worse. As Loki always says, any crash that you can walk away from is a good crash!

The owners of the track were so impressed with the quad turnout, that there is a very good possibility that they will make this an annual event.

So Marci, are you up for it again next year? I am!!!

 

How about trying some heat directed rite on the nut (gets the nut to expand) plus it cracks lose any locktite.
