  1. I`d flat out ask him what oil and mix he used. I`ve got two nephews that can break any motorcycle in just a matter of days. That seems to be the case of just abuse, deliberate or not. I`ve never seen a head like that. Was the rod locked up?
  2. He`s running one of our after markets (FMF) with a Forest approved spark arrestor. Our fine government thinks motorcycles are the source of all fires!
  3. Maybe putting the ty engine in it, would be a novel idea.
  4. I want to say it was called an RTX. http://www.angelfire.com/biz3/rtx/rtxtr.html
  5. It looks like it does not belong there. But as long as you do not have an air leak you should be okay.
  6. Nice bike. Looks like it was just touched up with paint. The lower chain guard was trimmed up too. Still very nice shape for the year.

    Bar Risers

    So are those inserts for fat bars?
  9. HTR Doug has the right idea. Longer shocks are a quick fix to make it turn better, but at the expense of getting the front end up easily. I cut my own frame 30 years ago it was quite easy. At the time there was a step by step article in a magazine. (Unbelievable a real trials article in the USA) I wish I would of pulled it in just a little more.
  10. No, you will have to clean the carb. Put a bucket under the bike.
  11. Take the top shock bolt out. That will also remove the rear sub frame. Should give you plenty of room.
  12. That`s a five, the Pro motor does not work that way! If you have never worked on a Pro motor, it is totally different!! The motor has to be split on the Pro for the shift shaft to be removed.
  13. It depends on which bore you are on now.

  15. So has this carb ever ran right? The dellorto was not the original carb.

    Linkage

    Waterproof grease.
  17. You kicked it while full and blew out both seal as the fluid had to go somewhere. The plus side is the rod could of bent if the seals did not blow. Hydro lock would have cost more.
  18. Both ends of the spring is there? Most of the time you cannot tell the top hat is broke without removing it. It breaks were the small piece sits at the end of the shift shaft. Did you try the shifter while looking at it closely? Myself I would pull it off and try the shifter without it. Be careful of that spring. Safety classes and all. The correct thing to do is zip tie the ends of the springs together and the spring slides off with the top hat.

    You forget Mitch the `02 had mag cases. Dale listed it at 144 and the `03 at 146. I just sold a complete `03 Front end to Jim Snell. Triple clamps and forks complete with front axle. In the box ready to ship 18 lbs.
  20. You have flooded the cylinder. Probably left the gas on and transported the bike. If it has that much fuel in it you need to dry it out. Take off the tank, remove the front pipe and the spark plug. Try turning it upside down for just a short time to get the fuel out. Be extremely careful as you can start a fire. If you must kick it to move the fluid out, remember to hold the kill button down.

    I found a letter from the USA importer yesterday that had the 2002 280 at 65.3 K or 144 lbs.

  23. All the above comments are good. You need to clean up all potential grounds also.
