    BONEHEAD MOVE - melted plastic tarp on hot muffler

    try heating and scraping off what you can and then char and pick off the rest cold. Could also try wrapping it in a cloth soaked with acetone. Not sure if it will effect the finish of the exhaust though.

    Ice riding/racing

    try racing sleds if you have a 450....Its fun to see them go all wide eyed as you pass them, though use a tyre that you can stuff more studs into

    Would you buy a used bike you couldn't test ride?

    you can easily check the suspension by jumping on the bike a bit, get a buddy or seller to hold the bike and you push and pull on the bars, multiple times and dropping your *** into the seat. If the forks are tweaked you'll feel it while jumping on the bike. If the seller is hell bent on you not...

    Would you buy a used bike you couldn't test ride?

    Totally fine for me, but then again I tear down and rebuild bikes that I buy. Unless the bike has been kept by a professional mechanic, there is no way the average person would keep their bike in as good as condition as mine. I tear the bike down to the frame, look for anything that needs to be...

    Bike stalls at idle?

So here's how it goes ride for a bit engine works great, tonnes of power in every gear very smooth through the rpm range, close the throttle and come to a stop and let the bike idle, very quickly it will...

    2 STROKE SUPERMOTO Question

    Shouldn't be any problem there that I know of should be ok as long as the gas is mixed with the oil correctly in the tank, but you probably will have to rebuilt the top end of the engine occasionally especially if you take full potential and use of its top end power band. One of my friends has a...

    2 STROKE SUPERMOTO Question

    How well a bike does on a track or anywhere depends on how it handles and its power and weight. Imho, two strokes are better than 4 strokes for racing because they are light as hell and go like snot. If you would be allowed to race with 4 stroke SM's I'd rock a killer bee any day. probably will...

    WR 450 street/trail questions

    Alright So. I am selling my 01 TTR225 and going to upgrade to a WR450F [any recommendations on year?]. I was looking into also doing some trail riding, but it would be mighty handy to ride it to the trails instead of borrow my biddies pickup truck to haul it everywhere and it would be a cow to...
