Been wrenchin, GPR for the gen1 and fixed the nitrous bike

Post by britincali »

Finally got a new waterpump case for the steelie I replaced everything with new stuff, new shaft, impellor, bearings, seals and even painted it black to match :D :D :D

Shes been sat for months now but it fired up on the second kick and dint leak a drop :cool: :cool: :cool:

Old one...

I also got a GPR4 submount damper for my birthday, this thing fukin ROCKS!!! I rode on sunday and was definatly faster, definatly more confident and dint get ANY armpump :cool: :cool: :cool: I even purposely hit a few rocks and dint come off :lol:

The kit raises the bars a little, I fell much more comfortable standing now.

Did you fix your leaky kick start seal, sensuous?

:roll:

I've been debating on a stabilizer. Not sure which - GPR or Scotts...

I still aint fixed the kicker seal on the gen1 yet, I got one but havent slapped it on yet.


I tried getting a scotts first but couldt find a post for the frame, I guess scotts stopped making them for the gen 1 awhile back. Ive never ridden with a damper before so I cant really compare all I can say is its night and day vs without one. I hit the whoops as faster than normal and had no issues I even got into a deep sand wash and tried to make it shake its head (chopping gas, getting on the front brake etc) and it just wouldnt do it, you can pretty much ride one handed through stuff you would normally be deathgripping.

Its the first time I went on a long desert whooped out haul ass ride and dint get any armpump. Its a lot of coin for something small but goddamn its worth it.
