I HAVE A 2005 YAMAHA BLASTE YFS-200 AND WAS WONDERING WHAT MODS OTHER BLASTER OWNERS ARE DOING AND WHAT HAS WORKED WELL. I HAVE ATTACHED SOME LINKS AND MODS I HAVE DONE IN A PDF FILE MADE FROME AN EXCEL SPREAD SHEET, IF YOU WERE TO WANT IT JUST PM ME IT WORKS GREAT. IT SHOWS THE MPH RANGE WITH DIFRENT GEARING OPTIONS IN ALL 6 GEARS AND AT EVERY 1000 RMP UP TO 10,000 RPMS.

I added wheel spacers front and rear. They made the quad much more stable.

i have some new blaster race plastic if anyone is interested..

WHERE DID YOU GET THE SPACERS AND WHAT IS THE PROS AND CONS OF SPACERS AND WHICH  ONES ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS?

DON' >:(T POST COMENTS THAT DONT HAVE ANY THING TO DO WITH WHAT IS SAID! THANKS

many people ask about what pipe is the best and everyone argues brands not prefomance with dyno results to back it up as well as riding style type so what pipe gives the most horsepower for a blaster 200 for instance. On a stock machine, you can build 10 different pipes and not really see more than 1 HP between all of them but as you build a motor the right pipe can make all the difference. The reason being, head pipe diameter can adjust your torque up and down, head pipe length will adjust where your power comes in at and the muffler system or megaphone on the end of that tuned length will also make a difference. Each rider has his own style of riding - one may ride the machine like a 125 always wide open and in a high rpm mode and another may ride like an open class rider short shifting and using the torque of the motor. The pipe can be adjusted to your riding style, the cam opening and closing and the size of the motor by changing head pipe size, length and whether or not you have a megaphone. Then you also have the question of whether you are running a spark arrestor with discs or screens. The discs tend to flow more; the screens usually kill the power pretty bad on a performance motor. With the disc-type exhaust systems (SuperTrapp, White Brothers, FMF, etc.), you can adjust back pressure for your riding style also. More discs giving less back pressure and more top end usually; less discs creating more back pressure giving more low end and throttle response. My point is, one pipe may work for one person and not for another. If you are building an engine you need to talk to your engine builder, discuss what type of riding you are doing and your riding style. I hope this answered your question without getting technical. I like to keep things simple. i also think that the TOOMEY B1 kit is the best fit for a lot of rec riders looking for more power all thru the power bands. toomey also has tech people to talk to which is a great help in picking a pipe. hope this helps.

dang! that was long winded... but a very good post!
My wife had a b1 toomey on here but the 310 jet was to big... a 190 was about right.

Quad, HAHA you got told!!

Trenga exhaust works for me

I love My FMF SST Pipe I have on the Blaster

The pipes that work the best are the ones that didnt run on top of the head, removes the heat from the head.  ;D

For all my 2 stroke questions I go to www.everything2stroke.com  ;D
Alot of knowledge there. This is were all us dinosaurs graze.  ;)  -Mark

I have used SRP and billet aluminum spacers with good results. Pros are vastly improved stability and low cost. Cons: up front, the spacers will increase the moment on the front wheel bearings but the load is usually too small to worry about. Also, the spacers will increase unsprung weight a little but this is likely a wash relative to longer a-arms and a wider axle. Aluminum spacers are very durable but I would stay away from the plastic spacer blocks and screw-on stud spacers. If you are serious racer, however, the trick a-arms and wider axle are probably the ticket.

PS: I have a set of like new Blaster SRP rear spacers (+2" per side) for sale if you are interested. I had to replace them with wheel adapter/spacers so I could swap wheels back and forth with my YFZ450.

what was the problem with the 310 main jet? did you give the airbox the extra prefiltered air holes in the lid, or remove the air box lid? was the throtle response a little laggy?

has anyone put on a new biger carb, say a 36mm? anyone use a new cdi ignition to increase the rpm range and change the power curve? i also heard something about how your pipes packing can change weather you get a little more top or bottom end depending on weather your useing a screen or plates. i have seen the screens they were talking about but not the plates. can anyone explain this in great detail?

the tommey pipe bumped me from aprx. 20 hp to 26hp with just the pipe, any text data on the fmf & Trenga about what it did? same question to post #7 big-daddy and his Trenga pipe.

Has anyone changed a front sprocket and can tell me what I have to do or maybe someone in the Apopka fl. area has a service manual I could barow?

My blaster is ported, has a Toomey pipe, and a 34mm carb, and I'm preety happy with the power.  It's faster than our stock 400ex, but the blaster's problem is just it's size and everything, it's sorta too small.  I also put banshee front shocks on, and a 400ex rear shock on it, and it really lets you jump higher without a rough landing.  I like my blaster but I need some more performance handling and suspension wise.

did you get the entire tommey b1 kit or just the pipe?whats wrong with the size of the blaster after you give it the power up like you have you have a small veristle  power quad, well if your riding trails

Hey, not trying to bust your balls, but someone posted all of the yamaha service manuals in some post. Do a search and you could print out what you need for the Blaster. Good luck!

thanks
also here are some neat links about blaster mods
http://www.atvscene.com/machines/yamaha/projectblasterpt2.htm
http://www.vcatv.com/PBhome.htm

or search [project blaster] on the net

Well for one it's alot cheaper and easier to make it really fast than to handle like a bigger sport quad, the power it has now I like it, yes I did buy the complete B1 kit.  It's just on the small side for riding on a track for instance.  On the trails it's perfectly fine, but when I go riding at the track, it's smallness kinda stands out.  If I had trails by my house I would probably keep it.

Are u sure it was the service manuals? What I found was for the owner’s manuals. If you need the link to that folks here it is
http://www.yamaha-motor.com/sport/service/viewmanuals/sport_manuals.aspx

For the blaster ride would anyone else be willing to bring there grill and coolers maybe a couple of us could make hamburgers and hotdogs and sell them to cover the coast of the food. maybe you know someone with a hotdog stand or something like that, that would want to sell food a long day of riding needs a good lunch!any thoughts?

well maybe theirs not as many of us blaster owners as i thought. this topic gets lots of looks but no post. maybe theres still hope. maybe the ride needs to be a 2 stroke ride?

my friend has a blaster ill let him know would any other bike be alwode to coem or no cuz i will bring him up but i got to utes

im not sayany that you cant come but it would be great if you came with someone how had a blaster. alsoyou cant be  2 stroke hater!

i just got my HWD 240 broke in graydon pipe, 34mm carb, 400ex shock, shee axel out back.  It's kinda sick my friend probably weighs 290 and even he can't keep the front end on the ground, I'm 150 so no throttle when I'm trying to steer, gets wide and ugly fast.

WHAT IS HWD? AND DID YOU JET IT AND A REED VALVE ALSO ANY AIRBOX MODS?

PLEASE COME. Please at least come with a blaster owner. if some one in the family has a blaster bring the fam.

please vote by Aug. 1. i will narrow the slections to a place and month. i will then poll for the weekend and time, aswell as how many will be going. please let other blaster owners know about this. if you know of a way to get more blaster owners to come please let me know. thanks

here a link to the exaust system he was refering to

hwd= hollywood dirt
my crank got fried so i sent them the whole motor. it's their carb and it's jetted pretty close to right, still have some fine tunning to do, but it idles and hauls a$$, it's a little rich but that means safe, haven't fouled a plug yet so it's not too far off.  took off the lid on the airbox lid and had to cut half of the rubber boot off to get the carb adapter to fit in it, got new reeds as the old ones were shot. 1mm spacer under the jug to get the piston out of the ports way.  I'm happy as hell with their work, and i got one of the last ones for a while, their not taking anymore work for now.

If you are like me you go through some small water now and then and want to keep the water out of the air box. This product works great I also recommend that you use a hot glue gun to seal the lid after you clean the filter each time. What is the jetting that you’re using?

I am thinking we should have 2 rides every year. the first for 2006 can be March 4th the same week as bike week and the second can be in October for Biketober fest.

Man, you sure are making this a big deal. But somthing like getting vendors out there needs lots of planning. If lets say 30bikes show up..You might get a photograph and some memories.. I honestly think you would need some sort of event, other than just a ride.. Like rent out a motocross track for a day, weekend, whatever. For one, a vendor wont show up at croom and sit there while everyone goes riding. They would lose ALOT of profit on that.

My suggestion is to rent out a track for a weekend. Advertise it as much as you can (without spamming) and get some type of main event for people to actually show up and want to stay. Also, I know its a Blaster ride, but most people that own blasters are kids. I know some of you have them, but really, a 200cc 2 stroke and small frame is sized for kids and teens learning to ride fast bikes. This means you have to widen the production models from lets say all 2 stroke day. That means Polaris, Yamaha, Honda and Kawisaki and Suzuki. This will get you ALOT more hits. Alot more people could show up and just a all out better time.

On this site, how many active posters on here have a blaster AND RIDE IT as their main bike? I would count only around 7-10. That would be no fun and I would bet any money that a big name like FMF would not show. But if you take everyone who has a 2 stroke quad.. You have more than enough to hold an event, best of the best, fastest time...Whatever you want, let your imagination run free!

Ok, so lets recap.

#1 Rent a track for a weekend
#2 Advertise, find promoters!
#3 Widen the catigories to ALL 2 stroke Quads.
#4 Advertise to the public!
#5 Set up events
#6
#7 Profit.. ;D

Try to follow those steps and you should have a nice turn out! I look forward to pictures.

this is true i thought there were more blaster owners out there. i think the idea  of a 2 stoke any make & model day event somewhere would be awesome! like i was saying i think that the sat. march 4th during bike week would be a great idea. an other thoughts? also check the poll at the top i gess there may be about 5-20 people going blaster owners and friends as well as family it will still be a lot of fun!

Right on, but dont expect huge names in the industry to show up.

When I used to play paintball, the big names like WDP, worrgames, Boblong and other huge reconized companys wouldnt show up to an event if it were lets say, Rookies - Amature division. Only because they are a bunch of no name teams. Of course everyone is profestional, but they werent going to show up to a little tournament in orlando just for 30 teams.

I think when I went to the NCPA which stands for National Collegeic Paintbal Association, which is college paintball. Even big name schools were there, but I bet there was only two vendors there. One was a paint distributer, and the other was a squeegy seller. And that was on their big day of the tournament. Schools like, Purdue, UF, FSU, UCLA, and other big name schools where there, but yet it was only college level, not many people cared.

But in orlando (same place they held this event) when it was the World cup of paintball. Big name teams like, Dynasty, russion legion, Oakland assasins..Guys that get payed to play paintball, just like Travis pastrona, Carey hart, Bill Balance. Those guys are BIG NAMES! I bet you all know who those people are. Well when the big names showed up, The comapnys that knew people would be there wanting to watch them would be there, they showed up.


So I guess what im trying to say is, expect the worst, hope for the best. I know you want this to be big, but somethings cant be rushed together.

Good luck man, I am all for you holding this event. I hope for the best!

I hear you guys loud and clear I was just hoping because of bike week maybe there would be some incentive. But I've posted this blaster ride on allot of sties to no avail. I relay thought there were more blaster owners out there. But IM starting to see that like you all have said this will be a small group of 10 guys having a blast getting dirty and thirsty. None the less ill be there ready to eat some food and ride the hel.l out of my blaster. Hope to see you guys there. Buy the way do you still have your marker? Osceola Extreme Sports is a pretty good place to play woods ball but it sounds like you are a air ball guy

Nah, I got out of that stuff about 6 months ago. It was more hassle going to big tourneys and just wasnt "fun" anymore.

I had a Speices intimidator,with frenzy board, Empire reloader B, Stiffi barrel, WGP 70ci stubby.

AHHHH, the STIFFI (barre) nice
i just have a stock tippman 98, not the best but takes a liken and keeps on ticken

was doing some reading and found a real hp mod. its not for everyone only the crazy! check out the viedo in the sand
i just got off the phone with the guyand he said that all that needs to be done is up the jetting. he didnt say to what but i mentioned that i have a 310 main jet he said that it would work. for the blaster it is $700.00. i have heard alot of bad stuff about nos cant this be done right without killing your engine? is a turbo better than NOS?
http://www.boondockers.com/site.htm

I really wouldn't do that to the blaster.  For one, the resell value will go through the floor if you install that.  And it's just not a perment add on, you gotta be filling the bottle and all.  If I was you, I wouldn't do, but done right, it's an easy 15 or 20 horsepower gain that can be preety reliable, but you gotta do it right and stay ontop of it.  BTW, where do you live?  I'm going riding this Saturday, the 6th, here in south florida, maybe we could meet up somewhere?

My dad lives in Lauderdale and my wives family lives in Kendall. I would love to meet up but won’t be down there for a week or two. I live in Apopka fl. (Orlando) but the next time IM down there I will PM you if u want. Thanks for the advise with me being new to all of this I start reading about some thing and get caught up in the hype a little like with the NOS. its relay cool that there is a site like this. I posted a place I go down there in the “where to ride” forum. The topic is “ok place to ride in Miami/fortladerdale” you might know of it. the place is the link below.

i would only be able to go the last to dates, im dog sitting 4-5 and doing an enduro the 12th. id like to go to see how my blaster measures up to other blasters...

-mokas-

What are you talking about dude, there aren't even any pictures of a Blaster.

There is in the photo gallery

This is the open disscusion though. He just opens up the topics and makes a post. I think it got deleted anyways so nevermind.

So , when is this ride on anyway?

LETS DO IT THE 19TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IM READY TO RIDE!

It should be cool to see others with blasters to see how mine stacks up!
I will be there about 10:30 am. any thoughts?

Hopefully, I'll still have my Blaster.Someone is trying to get the money for it right now.

IM WANTING TO RIDE THIS SUNDAY THE 6TH OF NOV. ANY TAKER? ( IM RIDING MY BLASTER) ONF BIG SCRUB

Yeah,I might be down. I'm suppose to go camping this weekend at O.N.F. I'm borrowing my friends Polaris Ranger, but I haven't gotten hold of him yet. If he doesn't come through, I'll be riding my Blaster!

as you saw on the other pot about this sat. you should meet up with us and antskered for breakfast and bring the blaster that will make three blasters! mayne were on to something
