    Slug issues.

    The thing is a turd. My money is on: - bad rings(judging by the amount of blow by in the exhaust) - Worn Valve springs - Worn cam lobs - Worn seals and guides - Stretched chain And that's to start, I'm also guessing the rod bearings are shot. The valves were at .020 an.030 when I checked them...

    ShowMe boys...Going to Deepwater 11/25/11

    Never been to Chadwick. My wifes family lives in Arnica(If you know where that is, I owe you a beer) I'd like to ride Chadwick, next time I go to the in-laws, I may bring the KFX. I had my KFX700 maybe 2 weeks. we took it there for a "full day of riding", which I got in. After everyone left me...

    I'm BAAAAACCCKKK

    Not that I was missed, but I'm back nonetheless. I deserted you guys after I picked up my DVX400, which I then traded for a KFX 700(which I destroyed) and then traded back into a KFX400. Last week a buddy picked up a 2001 Warrior, that has been, we'll say...neglected. Both sets of valves were...

    Finally got pics of my Warrior.

    Nice find. I have been looking to get another. I had one located for $600, but it sold an hour before I could get there.

    Rolled my Warrior

    That blows man. At least you were wearing a bucket. I ALWAYS wear a helmet when on a toy. Hell, one time I was doing laps on my property on my XL600r, and I was trying to see how fast, and how low I could swing a corner. Needless to say, I went down at about 50-55mph. That bike is BIG and...

    Got my ass kicked on the warrior

    Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the built Warriors myself. The laws of diminishing returns work against it. I like pipe/filter/appearance mods for it though. I know when I buy a Warrior that it's great for the trails, but only to race other bikes in its class. As far as speed goes, there is always...

    There is a TRAITOR among you...

    I'm still planning on trying to come on the MW ride. As long as I don't have to work. The DVX has a few mods already. I'm pretty sure I got such a good deal, because the P.O.(also a Warrior rider) did not re-jet the quad, and it was running like ****. When I finally had a chance to "ride" it...

    There is a TRAITOR among you...

    Well, I went ahead and hooked the kid up with my Warrior. It wasn't gone 5 minutes, and I missed it already. So much so, that I'm on the hunt for a newer one, or a Raptor 350, for my wife. I think If I can find her an unmolested one, she'd like it as much as my Prairie. I'm still hanging out...

    There is a TRAITOR among you...

    I want to, but she's not comfy with shifting. I'm like an Uncle to this kid, and if it gets him riding with us, I'll gladly do it.

    There is a TRAITOR among you...

    It's me, true story! I have taken the bait, and just bought a DVX400. I couldn't resist. It was owned by a little old lady down the road. (Seriously, it was a 50 year old guy, wife was making him sell it) The thing is fairly Spotless, and lightly modded(intake, jet, pipe, YFZ reservoir shocks)...

    attex amphibious 6x6

    If you don't have a lot of water to ride on, I'd pass. If you don't mind everyone riding in circles around you, then get it. I've ridden one before, and they are fun, but there must be a reason they never got real popular

    A testament to the strength and reliability of the Warrior...

    Not going to happen on this one. The stud is flush with the head. I'm going to try to tack a bolt to the stud first, and then go from there.

    has anybody raced any 400s with their warrior?

    My Brother has a Z400, and I can honestly say...The Warrior is no match in a flat out drag race. He has me on the top end, and pulls me thru all the gears. NOW, when we get in the woods, I can usually best him. The Warriors low end torque really pays off, when **** gets sticky. I hopped on his...

    A testament to the strength and reliability of the Warrior...

    Well, so far, the only thing I see wrong with mine is: - My exhaust flange stud sheared off at the head. I have never had much luck drilling these out, so we'll see.

    my other hobby!

    I'm a Ruger wheelgun NUT! I have a VERY RARE(happened on it by chance) Navy Issue GS32n. It's a Ruger Speed Six(SS) Government roll marked, without the warnings, stamped N.I.S.(Naval Investigative Service AKA NCIS). I have All the grips, the dist. box, the sales box, manual, the extra grips...
