HackMan162 Started a new thread Ti Bolts Supplier

Anyone ever use the eBay user RaceTi for titanium bolts. They're out of the U.K. And claim the bolts are U.K. Manufactured. What about user RacePro? They are U.K. as well.

Well, I just emailed a buddy of mine who would know, and he said he sees most of the teams using duct tape. So I will go with that!

I'm about to build up a new set of wheels for my RM. So my question is, rubber rim strips, or duct tape? Pros/Cons. Sound off!

Gold valve pistons are not the end all, be all solution. It is extremely arguable whether they are better than OEM or not. RaceTech's philosophy is for a higher flow piston. Others, not so much. If you are a newbie to suspension tuning, it is a decent way to go, because it is a full package complete with valving guidelines...

I was talking about this with my son today. We were thinking about the 2004 series, one of the Anaheims had a split start, with first turn chicanes opposite each other. It made for some good racing and line selection.

Guys, check out the pics of the YZ 2-stroke tank. It uses the normal YZ shrouds and shows the tank just like the RMs and looks really freakin good. You see much more of this piece of exotica than if you cover it with shrouds. Also, graphics should stick very well to it, since the carbon shouldnt leach vapors like...

Sorry for the repost, but dont know the exact place this should be. BlackDiamond has talked with CMT about doing a Carbon Fiber fuel tank for our beloved RM 2-strokes. They have agreed to do it if we produce a minimum order of 10 tanks. I am assuming this is to be pre-paid. BlackDiamond has said the price is $775...

Agree about the styling and the shrouds do look fine OEM. The difference being that the RMZ shrouds cover the tank, for wear purposes. I am assuming the tanks would include the flush mount caps? I have seen both billet and carbon caps. Is that an option, or ??? I'll start a separate thread for RM 2-stroke owners to see...

I did the dislocation, and tore the ligaments right off the joint as well, but waaayyy back in the dark ages of the first Ful Floaters...(1981). For me, I went through two surgeries to fix it, and I never regained full extension. I am probably 15 degrees short. Not enough to make an everyday difference, though it did keep me...

Hey Blackdiamond, do you communicate with the folks at CMT? If so, can you try to find out what the minimum buy they would need to have to do a run of RM 2-stroke tanks? Would be interesting to see if we could get that through Vital's vast reach...
