Yes he still has them for sell..He got rid of the blaster for a red 250R but he still has the works front shocks..He also had a nology system but sold it a few weeks ago..As far as a reliable motor yes it can still be reliable..

I got my motor back and it was completly trashed..The exhaust port was upside down, The piston was hitting the head, the transfers where opened up more than a methanol blaster should have, and it wasn't bored to the proper size..Basically it was so bad it was almost unfixable..So i sent it off to craig at cpcustoms and he is fixing it for me..Should be a beast when it gets back..

I figured he was selling the ones from the blaster still..The ones he is selling now must be off his R..After thinking about it the 16' will not work with out long travel a-arms..On stock a-arms they put to much pressure on the ball joints..You need to go to planet blaster and look in the for sell section..I know i saw a couple people selling them there..

I thought HWD was supposed to be really reliable and have awsome costomer service. I don't know if this is true or not but i heard that nobody can get a hold of him and that he has a lot of peoples motors and parts.

That's the first I heard of that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
Lol, its true! I havn't been around here much in the last few months, being busy with work and trying to wrap up my last year of collage. But i'll be around more often now. I sold the blaster in august and got a 250R shortly after. It needed work and right now im in the process of doing a complete overhaul. The engine is apart waiting on parts at the moment but everything is new. new crank, cylinder, piston, tranny, bearings, seals, etc. It's going to be rock solid when im finished. As far as the frame, its been blasted, painted, re-inforced and re-assembled with all new bearings and seals. I ordered a set of a-arms through HWD but everyone is right and he is ripping alot of people off, myself included so im not sure how thats going to play out just yet. I'll get pics up for you guys soon.

And yea, I have a set of tripple rates here, but they are 16". Not sure what they are off to be honest, I think the R but im not sure.
