i have rode there a lot of times, it is either muddy or dusty, i dont think it gets in between. trails are ok, and the track was a little laim i thought, all the jumps were small and easy.

I've never rode anything like it! My buddy who was on the Blaster is a great rider and his is quick as **** and he told me he hated being in the middle because he was faster then everyone there besides me but i'd be half a track lenght in front of him. But the track was pretty nice. THe mud was minimal on the track and not a whole lotta dust unless you got behind me or one of the dirtbikes. It's the most fun i've had in a lonnnnnnnnng time:clap: .

Oh yea Jeff, how long did it take to warm up for you? When we 1st got there, I let it idle for about 10 minutes and then I started riding it around easy. If I got on the throttle more then 1/2, it would bog down and die. But after about 25 minutes of 1/2 throttle riding, it cleared up. I put new gas in it but I haven't changed the plug but im doin that today. What is the code number for these plugs?

You need to do a throttle recal, which can on be done with the D&M kit!

Also make sure your battery connections are tight and clean.

that battery was brand new when i gave you the bike, maybe 30 minutes run time, i cleaned the terminals etc. i usually let it idle for 10 minutes minumum, you might want to check to see if the fuse that i showed you has a tight connection, possibly put some of that electric grease on it? the spark plug is a cr8e from NGK, i have another new plug i will give you when we get together so i can give you that manual, coil and fuel pump that i have for it, just give me a call sometime this weekend....i told you that f*cker was mean!! it will be alot better when the weather warms up....

I just went out and started her up today and she is runnin alot better then yesterday when we 1st got to the track. I think she just needed to clear her throat.

could have been bad gas, I know when I let mine sit for a month or better it doesn't want to run the same as with a fresh tank

yeah that gas was every bit of 2 months old...did you drain it or just run it through? you might want to get a few gallons of race gas, mix it 50/50 with premium pump gas, that seems to work pretty good and saves a little cash instead of running straight race fuel, the way those dales eat gas that would get pricy.

dont run race fuel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it will eat the rubber gromets for the quick conect and is not good on the injectors, read your manual it will tell you this:deal: it is probley cutting out cause cdales dont appreciate race gas:( just run 93 octane and you will be fine:)

I drained the old gas and put new 93 octane in it the night I got it.
