So true! With no valve train to breathe through, ring seal is EVERYTHING to a 2stroke. If you pull the jug off, put the ring in it and measure end gap. .003 per inch of bore is a good rule of thumb, I bet yours is fat.....

Can you brazen small holes on something like a dampner rod? I want to fix the front end on my XR but can't do a whole lot till I make that fix first.

84 Miles of Pristine Eglin Sand

New brakes front and rear, new front tire and fresh oil made my morning constructive. Afterwards, Spectre and I headed towards Timber Lake for a shake down ride. The sand was the pristine and sticky you get after a hard rain!

Saw a couple guys riding on Ranger Camp Road not sure who they were.

Great day!



Y'all have fun at Blackwater tomorrow and keep Vic outta da mud!

Sure, but you really should get some Emulators ( Race Tech) from Bob at R&R. They are reasonably priced & worlds better than damper rod mods!! I have them on my P.V. YZ's (465 & 250)...they are great
