When I was a young kid, I saved and saved to be able to buy a Krause sidewinder rear sprocket for my '89 CR125. Ordered it by phone (no internet or websites at that time) and about 2 - 3 hours later called and cancelled the order after I thought about it more as it was very expensive versus other sprockets. A few days later I received a letter from Krause stating that I had to pay a restocking fee for my order (even though it never shipped) or I would be blackballed by a long list of companies who...

I loved my Sidewinder sprockets. I ran them for many years on many bikes. But I had a trick and it worked out pretty good on 250's. I would actually go down a tooth and carry it with me as a spare on tracks that had a shift before a corner. With those heavy ass sprockets, It actually smoothed out the power instead of making it hard hitting and would carry the gear further. I stumbled onto it by mistake when they actually sent me the wrong sprocket and I had no choice but to run it. But I never...

I bought a Krause pipe for my kx80 saved all summer ended up being a black oem pipe no cool welds no cone look just a black oem piece of shit pipe FUCK KRAUSE PIPES

The clip looks relatively intact. I would surmise that if you could somehow assemble the shock with it halfway installed, pressurize it to 165psi and it doesn't blow up in practice or the heat, it would shear the clip and it wouldn't be complete. I'm thinking their are other pieces like the casting on the bottom of the shock that may have failed to enable that spectacular picture. Those clips are small but used worldwide in billions of high pressure applications.

GuyB straight up said Wheelie Boys were off limits here and it was the same with politics. No-go zone. It was always said thst stolen bike threads were like fly paper for people to be banned. Easy pickings. I even got the ban hammer myself once in one of those threads for saying thieves should die, which may or may not have been warranted...

If I said what I really felt about this, the FBI would be tracing my IP address.

Maybe so. But regarding de-escalation, if an asshole follows you home after a traffic dispute and is armed with a deadly weapon when they confront you on your property, the only de-escalation that should occur is curing their lead deficiency.

Suck it Kawasaki

Kawasaki, hands down. Dirt, street, doesn’t matter. I’ve had a Ninja eat crank bearings, a KLX blow a hole in a case, siezed a couple of KX’s. No more Kawasaki for me.

Interesting - that effed up cylinder BS started with the 1990 bikes, I guess they never figured it out .. Had the ‘90. Came totally incorrectly jetted, called Kaw and they said the jetting was correct. Uh OK. The chrome lining was never applied correctly to the cylinders, we got brand new ones and out the box the chrome was flaking off . Can’t think of how many cylinders we went through before finally got one nicksil ( or whatever) lined and ran it on AvGas . I raced pro Brit nationals at the time and we had to put...

2003 Ktm 250sx. That thing was unbelievable.

Kawasaki's are definitely the worst bikes for reliability wise I have owned.

Truth hurts, huh?

$10,000 says you own a Kawasaki

I read or heard "Hazard Haiden" somewhere and thought that it was pretty fitting.

I'll go with Wanker boy.
