Post by: 450rcrazy on November 19, 2006, 07:12:16 PM those are nice pics .I would contact barnett about the problem .If they are a good company they will make it right .If they were all bad you would think they would redesign it or $h!t can it all together.Its worth a call anyway.Maybe they had some bad friction material.Did they suggest any type break in procedure?any ways it sucks planning on having a good riding day and it's short lived due to mechanical failure of a new part.

I spoke with the folks at Hinson and based on the phone conversations and emails these folk got it together and are on the cutting edge. Title: Re: good and bad day of riding! Post by: koh0001 on December 10, 2006, 09:23:38 AM Nice pic's. I hate to even stay this....But, I've ran Barnett in my 250r now for going on a year. 2 smokes don't have the torque 4 strokes have. Even with a strong motor they should have lasted longer than 1 hr. :-\ something Failed. Sorry about the short day that always sucks. They should make it right for you. Good luck.
