FTR Quad Scramble #3 Myakka City NOV 3rd

[YFZ450-Tampa]

It sure does, but I took the other quad for a ride today and it feels really good, I'll have to do some easy changes to get it ready, already adjusted the suspension and it is all good now, but I'll try to fix the other one first. Will see how it goes, i couldn't do much today besides take it all appart to see the damage.

The thing that sucks the most is going to be the shipping. Order from motosport.com and if you order over $100 its free 2nd day shipping.

Thank's for the tip, I have to check, if they have parts for Houser swing arm, and see what clutch do they carry.

i bought all my houser stuff from motosport, my dad is supposed to be taking my pred to the shop tomorrow i explained to the service guy that i have a race this weekend and i would love him forever if he had it ready by then. i love fixing my own stuff almost as much as i love riding, but im not comfy gettin into the engine yet i am praying its ready by then. so i spent my b- day which is today stressing all day about that. i just put a new houser steering stem and clamps on it along with the houser h-bar clamps, trail tech bars and a pro design kill switch on it today. i hope they work fast but i dont really trust my dad to get it there on time, i bug him so much he started yelling at me ,lol, but i have had bad and very very very slow service at barry motosorts before hopefully they prove me wrong this time

and i was just here thinking about it and i think that mechanic is wrong, it doesnt add up if the gears are stript(strater/fly wheel) it is not going to start hot or cold, but it will start hot. do yuou guys/gals think it could be a weak spark plug since this bike is 2 years old and still has the original spark plug in her. tell me what you think, i do not have a lot of time cause i go to school during the week and work. please help

[svtbolt04]

Pull the plug, its about an hour of your time ( if you dont know what your doing and you count each spin of the bolt) and the plug is about 4 bucks at tops.

i was planning on this being my first race of this season, and still am but, i went to bms today and ask them about a problem i have...so here it is, i have an 05 pred 500 and it hasnt been starting lately cold so i have had to push start it the past two times, but when i get it started and its hot i can turn it off and start it rite back up, but if i let it cool down there is no way, so the guy said he thinks it is my starter teeth have broken off some of the other gear teeth by my fly wheel, sounds like that would do it, but why if that is the problem why does she fire when shes hot?? im gonna let them look at it he said he will try to have it to me by friday. but last time i had my other quad there it litteraly took TWO months to change the water pump, any ideas?

bu the way he said the loose teeth can ruin my flywheel if i risk it this weekend, it has had a weird kinda rattle sound lately but its been doing that for months and it will still drive perfect.and if i do risk it i wouldnt be able to do the dead engine start

well im pretty confident i know what it is, there is a little metal rod by the stater that shoots an electric pulse and i think the metal shavings and debris from the starter gear and the other gears in there from the years of wear and tear have clung to that because it is a magnet and is blocking the signal to come out when the engine is cold, because when the engine is cold the metal has high resistance to the signal coming out and wont let it past. but when warm the matal has low resistance and will let the signal bleed thru which starts the engine. i skipped school today to work on it but the mechanic gave me that idea right before i had to bring my moms car to her so i couldnt fix it, im bummed out . but ill be there nov. 17, take lots of pics and video for all of us who cant make it can watch. thanks
