Cannondaleriders

Had new motor running yesterday for about five minutes, Ran fine. Radiator didn't get warm in this amount of time so i shut her down and put away for the night. Bled coolant system this morning. Went to fire her up started once then died. Tried again and she backfired real hard through the intake. B...

Well i got my ECU today! Atk air shipped it to me. I managed to get her back together. Hit the key and she fired up in about two cranks! Sounds good! Not much change in motor noise though. Still about the same. Didn't get a chance to ride her yet since it was so nasty here all day. I hope to get coo...

Been waiting for 3 weeks for my motor to be finished by ATK. I recieved it this morning. Went and got everything out and ready. Opened up the box and unpacked everything. My ECU wasn't in the box! :mad: I was so fired up about finally being able to get this thing running again and now this! Just my ...

I just had basically the same thing done to MY motor at ATK for $3200! :mad: Plus new cams and valves. Wish you woulda had her done sooner Doug. ATK is rebuilding mine now:cry:

Thanks for all the suggestions. I was thinking diesel fuel also. Well my motor is on it's way to ATK for the rebuild, so i prob got a couple weeks or so to get this done. Believe it or not my wife was ok with me sending it to them and making it into a 450! GOD LOVE HER! LOL Can't wait to get her bac...

Well i got the motor out of my Dale today. When i drained the spars they were of course full of brass material. What's the best/easiest way to get all that crap out of the frame?

:mad: Well it looks like it's time for the ATK 450 update! The crank moves up and down about 1/4". Thanks for the heads up on that. If you guys wouldn't have said anything i prob woulda just wasted another flywheel. What really sucks is my Lt 500just broke down too. Third gear is out of it now. It r...

Jaspman, I'm prob. a half hour south of haspin. I do go their alot. I live out in the country and have quite a bit of land to ride on around my house. We'll definately get together sometime.

Yeah, half of the outer ring on the inside was gone! It was pretty much ground up into powder. The stator and crank seem fine but i haven't cleaned it up real good yet. Would electric motor cleaner be good to get all that crap out of their with? Ordered my new fywheel today from ATK $121.00, not to ...

I got the flywheel off this morning and it's toast! The outer ring on the inside is pretty much gone.
