Bob, Did TTM move to the sled market? Good luck with that. I replied to ArmPump's post on SnoWest. Update: since the new cases and transmission installed, I put a Rekluse on it and tuned the set up (I will always have a Rekluse on my bikes from now on), tuned the susp. The thing pulls HARD from as l...

HV, I like the FMF for the terrain I am riding in WA. Much more low end (as expected) than the PC. The motor doesn't shut down on the big end like it did before I added the SH ign and had Doug Ruth port the jug. Also added a Rekluse and left hand rear brake. Once I get the boingers revalved, this th...

I put a SH FMF on my TTM. The lower mount doesn't line up, so I moved it. Other than that, it worked fine.

I picked up a new XR100 (fits other models too like CRF150) on ebay, like ten bucks or so. Easy to splice into black/white wire from bar mounted kill switch. It all that happens is the black/white gets grounded to kill the motor. In the pic below, you can see where I mounted mine, upper right behind...

Question, by cleaning up the basket, does that change anything? As far as how much slop there is between towers I mean. Don't these baskets have the elastomer (sp?) between the basket and gear that breaks down and allows the basket to bang against the plates?

Been riding in some open country in Utah. Put the Gnarly on and geared it up a bit. 90* and sunshine. This bike was meant for this type of riding. I love Utah open riding too. On the subject of the Gnarly, I am leaning towards this being the pipe I will use more. The PC seemed a bit mellow over the ...
