I got a big bore kit for my sons 50cc predator, for some reason I cant seem to get the jug to fit over the piston, it is so tight going on that i cracked one of the rings, this is the first time I have ever done this, it seemed easy enough when I took it a part. I got the piston on the crank just fine, what am I doing wrong? please help

My oldest son has an 06 Eton 90R we have had some problems with it in the past, from the day we got it. It always seemed to stall when he would put it in to reverse or forward and not want to re start, for a few. Then it turned out supposedly that the idle was turned up to high on the carb, after all the work sky power motor sports did to it? it was simply a screw? well what ever the case, now it will run fine for a half hour or so then it comes out of gear it seems and the motor revs full throttle of coarse until I turn it off, then I fire it right back up and it runs fine until the next time it jumps out of gear like that. My biggest fear is that it will jump out of gear rev up full throttle like that again, with my son on it and then jump in gear at that rpm, that could get messy if you know what I mean. I would like to fix it myself being that I am out of warrenty and do not want to waist $$$ on s.p.m.s to mis diagnose it. Any ideas???

My son's predator took a crap a while back( forgot to check the oil) anyways long story short I got to replace the jug, piston, etc, I decided to get a big bore kit off line wich promises to convert my son's bike to a 70cc wich is great being that he needs some more power and speed, not to mention the big bore kit is less than half the price as the standard parts, my question is do I have to get a jet kit? and how hard is it to do a jet kit?

Hey homer can you send me a copy of me and the boys? thanks

We will lose our rights to bare arms any day now, first its cell phones, then its guns, then we will only be allowed to enjoy recreation, on certain days of the week, then Hilary we be elected, then its all over.

I think that you all are way off in your ideas of what should happen to this piece of sh*t, scraped off the floors of hell! what should happen to him is exactly what should happen to every person who has ever harmed a child. To start with he should be beaten and tortured to death, by the family, then we should use all of our medical technology to bring him back to life, nurse him back to health, convince him that he will just spend the rest of his life behind bars and then when he thinks all he has to worry about is bubba tearing into his a$$, we drop a bombshell on him. Not only will bubba have his way with him, but he will be beaten and tortured to death again, then brought back again the same way, and we keep doing this process until our medical technology can no longer bring him back, last time around he should suffer the same death that little girl,"save the best for last". just my thoughts

I like martin, but all guitar makers have a model or two that is a great all aroung guitar, as far as resale value, here are the top brands, in no specific order. gibson, taylor, martin, ovation has a pretty good resale, and so does fender, on both ovation and fender, steer clear of any model not made in america, they are worthless!!!! martin and gibson have been passed down to children for years and in some cases have become family treasures, so take that into consideration before you go and resell what ever guitar you choose.

If I ever called you a name, let me go ahead and apologize, because believe it or not, I never meant any harm in any way, thats not the kind of person I am, I just do not like to be missunderstood, I am not a far right rep or for that matter a far left lib, I am however  rep with some lib views, for the record,
I do not by any stretch of the imagination think that GW is a great pres or that his time in office has been even close to perfect, the point I am trying to make is that he is human, and like him or not he is our leader, who as a country we elected, I voted for Pero years ago, and I would vote for him again over anyone, but for me or any american to sit back a constantly bash bush is just unfair.

Brad, you forgot to mention my caps, j.k l.o.l.
thanks for the support.
I think I am going to run for office in Texas, here is what my campaign will be. GOT WATER?
P.S. your point on education being an illegal immigration problem, is on the money, I believe that
the pres that started this illegal immigration problem was a closet communist named Jimmy Carter.
I am not going to start beating up on Carter, because the H2O was good back then!!!ha ha ha

dynodon, let me apologize for my inferior attempt at writting a letter in a hurry, and not really giving a sh?? about punctuation, in case you did not notice everyone already had there turn on me, about that,
but what blows me away is how no one else who broke my balls, misspelled STATE!! except of coarse for you.
Oh and by the way maybe you should try to read my horrible typing a little closer for the content! I never said GW was some great Texas Governor, or for that matter that Texas is great. Since when does the quality of water have any thing to do with ones ability to lead, and the FACT is that the education system in Texas was never good nor will it ever be good. To go a step further the education system sucks in this country, for example my inability to read and write.

WOW, that hurts my eyes! there is a small button on your keyboard , it says cap locks on it. I suggest its use in further posts.  Almost on point though, from what I ve read there are only 1 or 2 persons that have said anything close to "a conspiracy" on here . Every one else has made some enlightening posts that we can all agree with ........somewhat! (PLAYING DEVILS ADVOCATE)= If you post saying "we as common citizens only  know a small portion of whats going on" , how could someone ASSUME that its all going as planned and correctly while using your thought process? This is not to say that this admin has not made its mistakes, but at least he finally showed some humility and fest up that the current troop levels are not working and we need to send an overwhelming force in to squash the insurgance and break the will of those who choose to try and do us and our allies harm. The questions that beg answering is - Why did we just let the Iraqi military just disban and meld back into society? Could this possibly be some of those soldiers organizing these uprisings? Also , why didnt we leave a bigger fighting force in place untill the Iraqi gov. was in full swing? We have heard "STAY THE COURSE" but have they really done that? Our soldiers deserve these questions answered. I believe Thomas Jefferson said something about always questioning the government keeps them honest. I suggest we take the advise of one of our fore fathers as well as a much wiser man than us all.
[/[[color=black]font=Verdana]quote I agree we should always question our government, but I just find it to be amazing at our timing,
for the most part all libs were in agreement with our pres and this admin when we invaded iraq, now that things arent looking so good they want to cut and run, and play the blame game, the fact is that we are not as far as we should be with the war on terror in iraq because we have sent our troops into a battle and have given them rules of engagement thatno one else has ever had to follow, the press has adulterated the warin iraq into this killing field that the u.s. military they claim has created, when in reality the u.s. military has invaded what already was a killing field, and I guess when i say that our leaders have more knowledge than we ever will have and they base there decsions on them,I like to believe that they would be in our best intrest, being that they are americans and all! maybe i am just dumb like the pres, but i know one thing for sure" I will never type with the caps on again"
lol
p.s.Thomas Jefferson was correct in that we should always our govmnt however it does not keep them honest, the truth is that they can never be fully honest with us because there are things that we should not know for our own protection, these days you cant invade a country without the news there giving away you positions                                                                 

WHATS THE DEAL WITH SO MANY PEOPLE ON HERE BASHING THE PRES?
AS IF HE IS SOME SORT OF IDIOT WHO HAS AN AGENDA THAT INVOLVES THE DESTRUCTION,
OF AMERICA, OR THAT HE IS JUST SOME GREEDY BUISINESS MAN WHO IS IN IT FOR OIL, THE
BEST IS WHEN SOME OF YOU MORONS INSIST THAT 911 WAS A CONSPIRACY PLOT, ORCHASTRATED
BY THE CURRENT ADMIN, AS AN EXCUSE TO INVADE IRAQ, AND THEN YOU SAY WY ARE WE IN IRAQ
WHEN THE WAR ON TERROR WAS SUPPOSED TO BE WITH AFGHANASTAN, I CAN GO ON AND ON WITH
EXSAMPLES OF SOME OF THE MOST RETARDED CHARGES, THAT SOME OF YOU HAVE COME UP WITH,
BUT I WILL JUST ADDRESS THESE FOR NOW, BECAUSE I WOULDNT WANT TO HURT ANYONES SOFT
LITTLE TREE HUGGING FEELINGS.
1. AS FAR AS HIM BEING AN IDIOT, HE IS THE LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD, IN WITCH HE WAS
ELECTED TWICE, ALSO THE GOV OF A LITTLE STATE WE CALL TEXAS, HE IS A GRADUATE OF THIS LITTLE UNIVERSITY WE CALL YALE, HE IS THE FATHER OF 2 PRETTY GOOD KIDS FOR THE MOST PART
NOW I AM ALREADY READING YOUR MINDS, YOUR SAYING THAT HE WAS BORN INTO MONEY, AND THATS WHY HE GOT AS FAR AS HE DID. WELL THATS BULLSH>>! BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE BORN INTO $ LEADS THE FREE WORLD OR FOR THAT MATTER BECOMES A SUCCESS, HIS GRADES AT YALE WERE NOT PERFECT, HE DID NOT SCORE HIGH ON THE S.A.T., HE BARELY WON ALL OF HIS ELECTIONS, YET SOME OF YOU STILL THINK HIS $ BOUGHT IT ALL, THATS STRANGE IF I WERE BUYING MY GRADES THEY WOULD ALL BE A's, MY S.A.T.s WOULD BE ABOUT 1600 AND I SURE AS HELL WOULD NOT BARELY
WIN AN ELECTION.
2. DOES HE HAVE AN AGENDA THAT IS ONLY BASED AROUND GREED FOR OIL, NO MATTER WHAT THE EXPENCE? NO YOU DUMB A$$ES HE HAS AN AGENDA THAT IS TO PROTECT THE LAND IN WITCH HIS
ENTIRE FAMILY LIVES, HE MAKES HARD DECSISIONS BASED ON INFO THAT NON OF US HAVE EVER KNOWN, WE ONLY KNOW SMALL PORTIONS OF WHAT REALLY GOES ON, AND WHAT THE PRES REALLY KNOWS, THATS WHY WE ELECTED HIM, TO TRY TO CLEAN UP THE MESS THAT SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE PAST PRESIDENTS, LIKE CARTER AND CLINTON HAD CREATED, I AM NOT SAYING THAT BUSH IS EVEN CLOSE TO PERFECT, BUT HE IS A BILLIONARE WHO WILL NEVER HAVE A DESENDANT
THAT WILL HAVE TO WORK, THAT MEANS THAT $$ REALY DOES NOT MATTER TO HIM AS MUCH AS SOME OF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE, FREEDOM HOWEVER DOES!!!
3.FOR ALL OF YOU CONSPIRACY JACKA$$ES, IF THE CURRENT PRES WAS AS CORRUPT AS YOU THINK HE IS, THAN OUT OF NOWHERE  A LITTLE HAND HELD NUKE WOULD TURN UP IN SOME SAND BUNKER IN THE MIDDLE OF IRAQ, WITH THE WORDS MADE IN RUSSIA, OBVIOUSLY NOT IN OUR LANGUAGE, BUT THATS PROBABLY WHAT IT WOULD SAY, YOU SEE IF THE LEADERSHIP OF THIS COUNTRY REALLY WANTED TO TAKE PART IN A LIE TO THE WORLD IN AN EFFORT TO GET THERE SUPPORT ON WHAT THEY KNOW IS RITE, IT COULD EASILY BE DONE, BUT OUR PRES IS NOT CORRUPT THATS WHY NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS HAPPENED, THE PRES AND FOR THAT MATTER NO PRES HAS EVER PLOTTED 911, THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE, ONCE AGAIN JUST INCASE YOU HAVE SOME LEAVES BLOCKING YOU VISION, IF THE ADMIN STAGED 911, THAN THEY WOULD GO AHEAD AND PLANT WMD's WHILE THEY WERE AT IT!!!
4. FOR ALL OF YOU WHO WONDER WHY IRAQ? WHO THINK ITS BECAUSE SADDAM THREATENED, THE LIFE OF BUSH SR. YOU ARE ALWAYS THROWING IN OUR FACE THAT THE WAR WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IN AFGHANISTAN ONLY AND THAT THE JOB IS NOT DONE THERE, AND WHAT HAPPENED TO BIN LADEN
AND BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, HERE YA GO! WE KICKED THI SHT OUT OF AFGHANISTANS TALIBAN, IT IS A SAFER AND MORE DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY THAN IT WAS BEFORE WE GOT THERE. WE SENT BINLADEN AND A LOT OF HIS FOLLOWERS RUNNING INTO NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES, BUT THE FIGHT TO CONTROL THE CENTER OF THE REGION WAS ON, JUST IN CASE YOU DID NOT KNOW OR FOR THAT MATTER CARE, IRAQ DOES HAVE THE 2 LARGEST SUPPLY OF OIL IN THE WORLD WITCH IS HOW SADDAM HADE IT FOR SO LONG, BY SELLING ON THE DL TO P.O.S. COUNTRIES LIKE FRANCE, IRAN HAS BEEN MOVING UP THR LADDER OF THREAT FOR SOME TIME NOW, JUST IMAGINE IF IRAN HAD TOPPLED IRAQ AND HAD CONTROL OF THE REGION, HOW IRONIC IS IT THAT IRAN IS NOW SUPPORTING TALKS WITH THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY, AND AT THE SAME TIME SUPPLYING WEAPONS AGAINST OUR TROOPS IN IRAQ, SADDAM WAS SUPPORTING TERRORIST FOR YEARS FINANCIALLY, AND WITH WEAPONS, AND WITH SAFE HARBOR. HE HAD TO BE DEALT WITH HE WAS PART OF A NETWORK OF COUNTRIES THAT ARE AGAINST OUR VERY EXSISTANCE! THATS RITE THERE ARE MORE COUNTRIES WE WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH EVENTUALLY, LIKE IRAN, WHO HAS FOR MY ENTIRE 32 YEARS OF LIFE HATED TH U.S.A. AND SUPPORTED TERRORIST ABROAD, LIKE SYIA, LIKE N. KOREA, LIKE CHINA, LIKE RUSSIA, THE LIST GOES ON AND ON, THE EVIL WORLD IS FLEXING THIER MUSCLES, AND MAKING PLANS TO PUT AN END TO OUR EXSISTANCE, THE ONLY REASON THEY HAVE A CHANCE IS BECAUSE WHEN THE SHI!! HITS THE FAN PU$$IES LIKE YOU GO RUNNING TO A TREE AND HUMP IT. WHAT MAKES ME SICK IS HOW MANY OF YOU LIBS CLAIM TO BE CHRISTIAN, YET YOU WILL STAND ASIDE AND WATCH OUR MOTHER LAND BE NUKED OR OVERTHROWN, THE PLACE WHERE JESUS WAS BORN IS UNDER ATTACK BY THE DEVIL HIMSELF AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS STAND THERE AND MAKE EXCUSESS ON WHY NOT YO ENGAGE THE ENEMY
                                                   P.S. GROW SOME BALLS

BE CAREFULL OF I.R.S YES THEY ARE A MUCH BETTER, SMOOTHER RIDE THAN THE STRIGHT AXLE HOWEVER THEY TEND TO PE A PAIN TO GET UN STUCK FROM THE MUD. IF YOU ARE IN A SITUATION WHERE A WENCH IS NOT USABLE YOU BETTER HAVE SOMEONE WITH A GOOD TOW STRAP AND A STRONG 4X4 OR AN ARMY OF MEN TO LIFT YOUR BACK END UP AND FREE IT UP. I HAVE A BF 650 STRT AXLE ITS NOT EASY GETTING IT OUT OF STUCK SITUATIONS, BUT BELEIVE IT OR NOT I HAVE BEEN STUCK SIDE BY SIDE WITH A POLARIS SPORTSMAN, WE WERE BOTH GOING THROUGH SOME REAL NASTY STUFF ALL DAY AND FINNALY OUR LUCK RAN OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF A 100 YARD MUD FLAT, HE AND I WERE ABLE TO GET MY BIKE UN STUCK IN JUST A FEW MINUTES , UNFORTUNATLY WE WERE NOT ABLE TO GET HIS OUT EVEN WITH MINE PULLING AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS WE FONNALY WERE ABLE TO GET A PRETTY BAD A$$ TRUCK IN AND GET HIS OUT, HE HIMSELF SAID AFTER THAT EPISODE HE WILL NEVER OWN IRS AGAIN. JUST MY TAKE AND STORY, USE IT WELL, GOOD LUCK!!

ALL I HAVE TO SAYIS, I AM SORRY I MISSED OUT ON ONF LAST WEEK, AND ALSO MATT IS THE BEST
#4# FIGHTER THAT HAS EVER ENTERED THE UFC, HE HAS NEVER BACKED OUT OF A FIGHT! GSP HAS,
YES GSP WON, FAIR AND SQUARE! BUT MAKE NO MISTAKE THE WORLD OF MMA HAS NEVER SEEN A MORE SKILLED FIGHTER THAN MATT, LIKE HIM OR NOT HE IS THE BEST, HE WILL BEAT THE SNOT OUT OF GSP IN THE RE MATCH, AND JUST LIKE ROYCE GRACIE, MATT WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS ONE OF IF NOT THE BEST, AND OF COURSE HE WILL EVENTUALLY LOOSE FOR THE LAST TIME AND THEN RETIRE, LIKE ROYCE GRACIE WILL SOON DO HIMSELF. OH AND BY THE WAY I HAVE MET MATT IN PERSON AND HE IS NOT AN A$$ HOLE AT ALL, HE IS A SUPER NICE DOWN TO EARTH GUY, I THINK T.V. MIGHT BRING OUT A BAD SIDE OF HIM.      I WANT TO FIGHT THE WINNER!!!!!!! I WILL SHOCK THE WORLD!!!!!!

RR IS A GOOD TIME, I HAVE BEEN THERE A COUPLE OF TIMES, THE QUESTION IS IT WORTH IT? DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU LIVE, AND HOW FAR YOUR WILLING TO DRIVE. BECAUSE IN MY OPINION HOLOWPAW CAN NOT BE TOUCHED BY ANYTHING ESPECIALLY FOR THE PRICE!
RR HAS A LOT OF RULES AND EXTRA CHARGES THAT MAKE OWNERSHIP A HASSLE, NOT TO MENTION HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO GET OUT THERE WITHOUT A 4X4 TRUCK, MY FAMILY HAS A COUPLE OF ACRES IN HOLOPAW, I BIELEVE ITS BETWEEN 3K AND 5K AN ACRE AND THAT GIVES YOU FULL USE OF MORE THAN 10K ACRES. NO RULE JUST FUN JUST MY OPINION

my son has a 50 cc predator polaris 2005, he is already wanting to go faster
from day 1 i removed the clip that is supposed to keep it from going full speed
and that is not fast enough i have even adjusted the throttle control so it can be pushed in as far as it can go. it still is not fast enough for him it only goes 15 mph. there has got to be some kind of additional governor or restrictor that i can remove or adjust, because i just cant imagine a 2 stroke only topping out at 15mph. any help is apreciated.

thanks alot man, that got er done

just make sure you keep all receipts for the maintnance you perform, sometimes they will ask for proof

ANY ONE HAVE SOME ADVICE FOR ME ON HOW TO RAISE UP THE REAR SUSPENSION ON MY 650 BF. IT SEEMS LIKE IT HAS GOTTEN LOWER SINCE IT WAS NEW, I KNOW IT CAN BE ADJUSTED I'M JUST NOT SURE HOW TO DO IT.

do it yourself after warrenty runs out, trust me, dont touch anything, that might leave a mark, like for example when you take out your oil pan bolt it might mark it, just be carefull what you do, you dont want to void warranty, even though warranty work can be a pain in the a$$, it is still good to have it.

outlander is the fastest, and probably the nicest bike on the market, however, i have had my bruteforce 650 up to 68 mph i weigh 260lbs  so thats plenty of speed for most. also gets through just about any muddy condition, outlander is very expensive and not that much faster than bf, and not any more sporty.

IF YOU REALLY JUST WANT SPEED GO WITH A BOMB, BUT IN MY OPINION THE BRUTEFORCE 650 IS PLENTY FAST AND SPORTY, I LIKE THE FACT THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE I.R.S. BECAUSE SOME TIMES IF YOU GET STUCK IN THE MUD IT IS EASIER TO PULL OUT STRAIGHT AXLES, AND THE 650 IS PRETTY TORKY LIKE A SPORT BIKE. PRICE NOT BAD TOO.

I HAVE A 400 RANCHER AND A 650 BF AND EVEN THOUGH THE BF HAS A LOT MORE POWER AND IN MY OPINION IS ALOT MORE FUN, THE HONDA NEVER LETS ME DOWN AND IN MORE THAN 1 OCCASION HAS HAD TO PULL THE BF HOME. HONDA DOES RULE OVERALL IN RELIABILITY, BUT AT A HIGHER PRICE,
JUST MY OPINION.

thanks

I WANT TO SNORKLE MY BF 650, BUT I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO IT AND I REALLY DONT WANT TO SHOOT FROM THE HIP, BEING THAT IT INVOLVES CUTTING PLASTIC, ARE THERE ANY BIKE SHOPS THAT DO THIS KIND OF WORK,
OR ARE THERE ANY SNORKLE KITS WITH INTSRUCTIONS FOR THE BF 650? THANKS FOR ANY HELP.
