John over at MotoPro in Woodenville knows how to set that YZ suspension up. He had done a bunch of them and close by for ya.

I dunno much about the local suspension gurus. Heard some good things about a guy named Les Tinius of LT-Racing over in Port Orchard (I think). I've used four different suspension shops. The two I'd recommend are WER and Factory Connection. But that was when I lived back east.

Wish i had $1200. Here is one in Entiat on craigs list ! looks clean. I know you bought one all ready but I can still dream !

not sure which one yet FMF turbine core 2 $129.95
maybe Evolution Debries Deflector Aluminum Hand Guard with deflectors $67.98+$24.95

*suspension is fubar'ed, but that will have to wait until next year.

Hey Inspector, so when do we get to see that blue rocket on the tail? Walker is calling

We found the perfect trail to break it in too.

I took it around the neighborhood real quick on 2 year old gas. sputter-sputter, give it gas and 3rd gear wheelies

*Hopefully before 4th of july she'll be ready.

**went to look over a few bolts.....*@&! missing 3 of the 8 pinch bolts.

Glad you enjoyed Webbers Wanderings SpanishFly... We had a great ride at Walker Sunday. If you go up in the woods to chase SpanishFly make sure to eat your Wheaties. Great to meet/ride with the guy and see that SH*@ eating grin all day. Will be doing it again soon for sure.

That was my kinda trail ride! Too bad my outta-shape arse couldn't keep up with that grin... Or you. The only complaints were from my muscles on Monday.

I had to pop a few Ibuprofin myself SF, Good stuff... Now where the hell is that float bowl, damn!! it was right there ???

Looking forward to breaking, um breaking in Inspectors YZ P.S. they blocked off your puddle at the bottom of Pats trail Kevin.

Why would they do that? I have more clearance now, ready to try it again.

Masters of the obvious!

Nice! Went to clean the air filter then start the beast to warm it then change trans-fluid....air filter fell apart. Got no way of getting to the store for replacement until thursday.

*bah! I give up for this weekend. Missing washer on the drain bolt too.

1 quick question...Remove drain plug and cap to drain. Replace drain plug and remove inspection bolt. Fill until oil comes out the bolt hole? That's not .75ml that they say it takes thou?!?
***edited for the billionth time...I was thinking .75litters I think. Started out putting 500ml in....wayyyy to much. ----incorrect info

****edited for the billionth and one time....my asking and search has led me to the decision of....drain the sh%t and measure out .79L and pour back in. Don't use inspection bolt because it's not used for measuring.

great. previous owner never put enough in. now i have to buy a measuring device since using the Pyrex measuring cup is now heavily "frowned upon".

I used the inspection plug on my old Yamaha. Never had a problem. Remember, it's a 2-stroke so oil level is not as critical as with a 4-stroke. Also, get yourself a ratio-rite cup. Make measuring fluids a snap and the wife doesn't get as mad about dirty kitchen utensils.

As for the air filter, the PO probably used NoToil air filter oil. It's a decent product, but the carrier attacks the glue in some air filter causing the filter to fall apart.

Well, I got the B$tch running....even idling I don't think she's jetted quite right and she is LOUD!

Installed some goodies on her. Not impressed with much of it, but I guess it'll work. Think I could have stuck with the stock silencer and just put a sparky in it and been good. O'well.


*Forth of July week is COMING!

Looks like Santa came by.

Rode a little today...Man she needs work. Tire, jetting, and clutch(?).
*she's not ready for walker without help

Just give it time, ride a gear tall, short shift, clutch control. Slip it, thats what there for. Back off the compression on those moto forks and shock. point and shoot. Those are great woods bikes.

One of these will help you get up those rocks.

Proper jetting makes a big difference on rideability along with your mix ratio.
