  1. That's what my friend I bought my current house did right next-door. it turned out beautiful but beware, you don't think so but it ends up costing as much as a regular house and you have no basement. Also, if you're going to do it in Ohio you better heat that concrete floor or it's never going to be warm. he has about $180,000 in his not including the land. And he did most of the work himself besides the shell, electrical, Hvac and the concrete. We ran the 10 miles of heated floor pipe. He started in 15 and it's just now getting to a point where you could say it's done. And in the end it's not worth as much as a conventional house. Just a heads up that a lot more goes into a pole barn house than people think.
  2. Is there no KTM dealer in Columbus? Motohio? Im in for the museum and day drinking.
  3. Very cool. I have a buddy that has one and a place to ride if you don't mind bringing it down to redneckistan. I'll send you his info.
  4. 1977 GE in the basement runs great. Kinda ugly.
  5. Sorry fellas. Buried my dad 7 years ago and just buried my grandad last week due to cancer. I think I speak for everyone here when I say, Fuck you Cancer!
  6. Wait, Nivin bought a GS now?
  7. Nice review. Bicycle riding is dangerous. Ride the fz.
  8. Great time! Good seeing you bubby's.
  9. This is tooooonight! I expect to see are you forum regulars, trolls, fuckwads and dickweeds. Let's party like it's 2009! Will there be drunken debauchery? Will we just quietly sip a couple of beers and talk about the good old days? Will the night will end in hookers and blow? Show up and find out!
  10. And of course I will be reporting back my findings
  11. OK, let me try to answer all the questions that I didn't know well enough to answer in the first place. It does have an aftermarket exhaust. White brothers E-series. It has the bigger header off of the 250 R. The main jet was reduced from something Ridiculous like a 190 to a 145 which, according to XRsonly (who have been modding these bikes for 30 years ) is what it should have with my particular set of mods which are very common but I sent it to them without the needle included. The needle clip was in the middle so I dropped it one. Didn't change the stumbling issue. It runs great at wide open throttle and at low RPMs just stumbles at cruising speed. And thanks guys. I appreciate all the information and will be processing it when I have a chance to get my hands back on the bike
  12. It seems to be at about 1/2, but I can't tell ya for sure because it's dark every time I test. It happens at cruising speed, which on a 250 I'm guessing to be around 1/2 throttle. I will mark it and test this weekend. Very well could be the needle taper as it was the the one I started with. Thanks.
  13. According to the above guide, mid range fueling is controlled by changing the circlip on the needle.
  14. I am down for Friday but doubt that wife can make it. Her family is coming to our house Saturday and she will probably be cooking. God help us all! Where we going?
  15. Found this. Apparently the Mikuni flat slide was designed for a 2 stroke application but is a common mod on 4 strokes. Interesting read http://www.odysseypilot.com/index.php?topic=3731.0
  16. I guess I had the description incorrect. It has been a few weeks since I talked to xrsonly about the issue, but he did tell me to raise the needle by dropping the clip one spot. It does seem to run better but still stumbles. I'll see if in can find the mixture screw and where it should be set. Thanks guys
  17. Got a 91 Honduh XR250L with a punched out bore, white bros exhaust system, K&N and a mikuni 32mm flat slide carb. When I got it, the carb was hillbilly connected to the intake with a piece of tire innertube and a XR400 air tube. I sent the carb to XRSONLY in California to add an air box adapter causing me to have to buy an XR250 air box tube and they found the jets to be way big. I believe the jet now is 145 Problem is, when at cruising speed, say half throttle, it stumbles Called XRSONLY who said I need to raise the needle 1 spot. Let in more air. Did that. Still stumbles at half throttle. Do I go the other way? Is it a air/fuel screw adjustment issue? What's my next move?
  18. Sorry I couldn't make it. Family stuff.
  19. Never heard of that place. Is that the electric carts? Got some family issues going on, so If at all possible, I will be there. Any info on prices?
  20. So, Can me and my wife go? She's a really good rider ( even though she never breaks 50 mph even on the freeway) and cannot ride on the back of my bike due to some feminist badass personna she's trying to portray. She has a bad ass Harley sportster super Duper low so will have to stick to straight roads because she doesn't like turns. Also, you'll need to carry all my shit.
