    Drilled slides??

    Does anyone have any ideas? Besides the boots? If I remember correctly you use a propane torch (not lit obviously) to check for leaks right? Thanks guys

    Drilled slides??

    ****UPDATE**** I ended up doing the epoxy on the holes in he slides and getting a #19 drill bit to redrill them. I also put a set of stock needles in and it still isn't running right! :bang head: !! So I'm assuming the next step would be check all the boots for leaks??

    That doesn't seem bad but I'm in SoCal and don't want to even try to get that shipped!

    I just text the guy and asked if he would sell just the rotors and he won't. He wants $300 just for the front end.

    Very nice! Super clean too. What did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking?

    i " SPANDEX WORRIER'S " WHAT THE **** ?

    They are a different breed forsure! I had a guy that I used to work with that was just getting into cat 1 racing which is professional from a cat 2 (high level amateur) and it's like they think they are superior to "regular" people! I'm a mountain biker, like a real mountain biker and know quite...

    Cool man, thanks. I know ultimately it is up to me obviously but figured it couldn't hurt to see what others are running in heir front suspension.

    Figured I'd share this with everyone. Donnie daughtry sent me genuine Yamaha oil seals and dust seals FOR FREE! I tried and tried to pay him and he would not let me! That's pretty crazy huh?! He also sent me some stock needles that I wanted to try..... also for free! Unfortunately I won't be...

    Drilled slides??

    So I found another issue. I just went for a short ride and when I was on the freeway and holding a constant 60-75mph I'm getting a popping noise. I get it pretty bad on deceleration also. I changed the clip position to the third slot from the blunt end. I really haven't tried to "tune" it with...

    Drilled slides??

    I also have to do the fork seals. I started another thread about all that though.

    Drilled slides??

    :clapping:Yep!! :eusa_dance: So it turns out the major problem was the coasting enricheners. It runs pretty good now and completely drivable. To get it completely dialed I need to get rid of the drilled slides and I probably will ditch the stage 1 needles and just put the stock ones back in...

    I'm ordering the seals from Sean and pretty positive he uses OEM for those. As for the rest of what you guys are saying I'll have to see when I pull it apart. Also, I'm probably going to have to find a "how to" video on setting the sag.

    Front suspension opinions

    I have no idea which ones. That's all the invoice said and I did not buy it from the original owner. I am the 3rd owner and the second owner knew absolutely nothing about.

    Front suspension opinions

    So now that I got my carb issues squared away I want to get everything dialed in. I have a leaking fork seal so I'm going to replace both of them so I want to lay out my current setup and get some opinions on what oil and PSI I should be running. I'm 6' 3" 210lbs and I'm not trying to carve...

    i DOES ANYONE ELSE RIDE LIKE ME ON LONG RIDES ?

    I'm going to have to give that a try tomorrow! Being 6' 3" the vmax is pretty cramped for me so I ride with my feet on the highway pegs all the time unless I'm shifting or braking. I have put my feet on the passenger pegs before when I've been on the freeway.
