bunch of stuff

Post by 2strokeforever »

i got a bunch more stuff,
i wanted a presure suit so i went to the dealer to find what one fit me best, planning to then buy it at rockymountain, i ended up getting the thor impact rig se, but i guess the dealer saw that i was buying a bunch of stuff but not from them so they gave me the same price as rockymountain could :D
anyway i like it , it has a bunch of pads and a built in kidney belt

also got a fox camelbak/backpak from rockymountain for $50

the water bite thing is really good, different than the picture, dosent leak holds 3l/102oz lots of padding on the back, lots of room

moose front brake levers suck, thinner than oem and made outa garbage aluminum. tusk ones are thick and strong, but if i was rich id go with oem

enduro engineering KTM magura clutch lever, makes pull easier , has a bearing in the pivot same shape as stock magura . it has a little more leverage. and ive heard they make the master cyl wear faster, guess ill find out if it dies ill just replace it with a 8.5mm master and use the regular lever

after using tubliss, i will never go back to tubes, there that good

and im using a moose airfilter and love the design, cheap too ,cleaned it quite a bit and its not coming apart ant the extra ring to help it seal better

beware of twin air tho :shock:

also im looking for a new set of rear brake pads, the back wore out (almost metal on metal<.5mm) in 3 months, but i hardly use the back and the front is still over half life left?????and i use the shit otta the front. i already checked for dragging , none the wheel spins freely rotors straight, caliper is straight
but do i want carbon, kevlar or sintered metal?
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

screw all brake leavers that arent an ASV Unbreakable lever. those have already saved me money, and i havent had the misfortune of having to limp home on the trails cause a lever snapped off since i bought them. BEST THING you can do to a bike, PERIOD.

Use to go through a few levers and a set of bars every season untill I added the cycra probends, 3 seasons and MULTIPLE getoffs now with no broken levers or bent bars. Definatly a good mod.

ASV lever set = couple hundred bucks < racetech goldvalve kit = couple hundred bucks
I buy MSR $10 levers and keep spares in my gear bag, haven't broken one yet, just bent them, so the old bent ones are the gear bag spares. I can go through most areas whitout a clutch or front brake to make it back to the truck. ASV levers will not make your bike faster or make you a better rider, suspension work has the potential to do bith.

ASV sucks balls the clutch cable drags on them and snap. Im a retard and didnt relize thats what the dumb squeek noise is that they make until I had to buy a third clutchcable. I have the Cycra probends on both my bikes and love them when I bend those all to hell I straighten them out in the vise and there good to go again.
