I don't know about their exhaust but I did purchase a replacement radiator for 1 of my bikes last year for 1/2 the cost of a OEM unit. It fit perfect and I'm totally happy with it.

I can't believe you still have this either. I sold it in 23 minutes after posting my for sale thread originally. This bike is a ton of fun and whoever the next owner turns out to be I'm sure you will enjoy it.

Tha ATV tag is a good thing.... read up on it, It allows you to ride it along the edge of any road other than a state route, freeway, hiway. Its already out as a state apv sticker just not required yet unless you want to ride on state owned land. I have them on mine already and ride into town regularly.

Starting July 1st it is required that you have a actual plate on your APV and the cost is going up to $31.25

330 is a great track and pretty long to boot, I don't remember off the top of my head but it's at least 1 mile long. It's all natural terrain with lots of elevation change. The have a "C" track as well if you get tired and just want to cruise for a bit.

Another 1 close to me is Crow Canyon, I'm not a big fan of their MX track ( to easy) but they do have a ton of trails and open area to cruise around at a easy pace if you like.

Doing it in a chassis is harder work than jut pulling it and working on it upside down...

Maybe for you, all in days work for me and I didn't need to replace anything more than the shift forks.

You are going to walk in down in South Carolina???

Doubtful...

Plus, the prices are pretty much the same anywhere...

I don't know if they will give you the same price if you walk in but this seems like a good deal to me if you like Michelin tires.

MX'r here but I'm on the other side of the state from you, I do make it up to Red Bud a couple times a year if you ever ride up there. We have many natural terrain tracks on the eastern side of the state and my favorites would be Beans, Area 330, Scenic Highlands. No 2 smokes for me though, I was a early convert and have been on thumpers since the 98 YZ 400.

If your at least a decent "B" rider I have a friend near Wooster with a private supercross track at his house and can get you a invite for one of his many riding parties. These guys do ride hard though and won't tolerate putting around in 2nd gear. All photo's here are from his track.

It could be a bent shift fork as well and I have replaced these on a ZRX (identical bottom end as a ZX-11) with the the motor in the frame. For any other ZRX owners the tranny from a ZX-11D is a direct "drop in" if you would like a 6 speed rather than 5. ZX-11 cams are drop ins as well for the ZRX1100 or ZZR cams in the 1200 and good for another 10-12 HP.

Here is what you ask any contractor you are considering

Are you licensed?

Are you insured?

Are you bonded?

Do you carry workers compensation insurance?

How many years have you been in the window, siding, gutter business?

Who can I call as references?

Where can I see some samples of your work?

How long do you warrant your work?

Do you provide a written warranty?

Who do you bank with?

Can I call your bank for a credit reference?

I worked for a commercial building supplier for many years and can tell you Anderson windows are not worth the cash. They do offer a pretty good warranty but I would rather not have any problems to begin with. On 1 of my homes I had Lowes install Pella replacement windows about 7 years ago and I have not had any problems with them at all and would even recommend them.

A nice cheap mod on these is -1 +2 gearing, I've had 2 friends with these and that change makes them lots O fun. These are great bikes and the only thing I don't like about them is the tach.

Poplar with the gays too!

You might want to hit up some of the local MX tracks as well for practice. The bikes there are moving much slower compared to road racing tracks and you can generally go any place on the track that you like. You will definitely have to clean your equipment more often but you can get some great shots as well.

I have a few of those bikes as well. My Cannondale "Crash A terium" bike is pretty old school with 6 speed Campagnolo record and sew up wheels & tires. I still have my old Cinelli Super Corsa Pista fixed gear from when I lived in San Diego and use to ride the velodrome in Balboa park.

Sounds kinda cool, but the island's only 3 miles end to end

Can you say "Gridlock"??

Thats what I'm thinking, what a dumb place to have a bike event. 3 miles long with a top speed limit of 35mph, that why everyone drives golf carts there. Maybe they will have drag races on the airport runway?

Fox,

Is there an index of sites, or do you manage to keep this stuff in your head? :-)

IE, I'm looking into the same thing in my area (SWO, a little dying town called Dayton) and want to find out if there are other areas nearby, other than just Wayne

-b

All those tracks are just local to me and the 1's I frequent the most.

pitracer.com is a off-road specific web-site for in and around Ohio, it is a pay site though and I believe it's $12 a year. I am a member there as well.

accidental,

Those HIV vaccines might come in handy now that they are going to let 200,000 people from Haiti into the country :grin:

I thought this would have been a bigger story around here. If this pans out in the end it could be great for Ohio in general.

Historic Tags FTW.

+1. I use them on all my Vehicles that are over 25 years old, I think they cost $17.50 and they don't expire till 2050.

Here in Tuscarawas Co regular bike plates just cost me $28.87 each.

wow..that place was tiny. flat trackin 50's?

They let kids on 50's race 1/2 mile tracks as well, this is from the Stark Co. fair grounds where they have races every Memorial day weekend.

group trip to holiday valley would be sweet! not to bad of a drive either!

I'm in for that, I got a friend with a home right on the slopes of Holimont so I can stay free.

My bet is still a shitty coil, like hue said, when warm. Ignition modules on the domestics are good for that shit too. Test fine cold, but when warm, fail miserably.

Thats my guess as well, I had a GM product in the past that had this exact problem. It had 3 individual coil packs and 1 of them would give out intermediately and the fricking codes were everything from knock sensor to crank angle sensor.

I have an interest in rockets, but have never had one.

These kind of rockets?

I have a few MX bikes and ride at local tracks but most of the good tracks do not allow ATV's now.

You should have taken your Ducati and rode it down the hallways

Try Craig's list, I'm sure you can find something that somebody wants to unload so they can upgrade. It's my opinion that SRAM (gripshift) Rockshox, and TruVativ are junk components.

I just can't stand how Sony always uses their own goofy proprietary memory stix rather than industry standard SD cards

Depending on the Model Sony they can use SD, CF, Memory Stick or combinations of both.
