Hey Teza, been a while since i had a smoker.

how is it for compression, kms, serviced regularly etc.? condition of tube between the airbox-carb-inlet-head?

have you tried running the carb empty before putting her to bed?

carb sucking a small amount of air somewhere, and takes up once it’s run, gasket takes up.

how is it for tolerances on the slide/plunger to carb body?

hope one of those more in the know will point you in the right direction!

when i had an 03 300, told the ktm bloke (no longer works for them:( ) my weight and he recommened a spring for front and rear.

the other shop i got the springs from did not have the size /rate suggested but softer one that was longer, they reckon would do same just tighten it up to pre load it.

being i did a deal when i bought the bike the springs were not all that dear, sorry i do not remember prices. the preferred shop fitted the fronts as i had no idea, again not sure of $ but was not much, i fitted the rear myself.

now it all worked really well for me but light blokes did not like it.

but as Rocket said give the pro’s a ring,

and call the shop you bought it from and see if you can squeeze a deal out of them.

that is if you bought it from a shop. sorry i think i may have you/your bike mixed up with another member that just bought a new 450:blush:

i wasn’t going to mention as i thought all would know anyway.

but i only 3/4 fill any bottle,

freeze it with the lid off until solid= pressure not split bottle,

then put it on when i want to use it.

[drewMember]

5-16 day ice rating:ohmy: !

yep +1 for freezing your own, know it’s solid ice then.

[drewMember]

techno ice box, is that an esky that plays “doof doof”?:dry: :huh: :unsure: :laugh:

are they the large blue ones?

i don’t know what brand my mate has, about 4 1/2′ x 2′ x 2′. went camping first time with it they filled it with needed stuff, some block ice and topped up with bags/ cube stuff. only opened it when needed/ not unnecessarily .

kept the bulk cold for the 4-5 days, i’m not sure if they topped it up 2-3 days in with a bag of crushed ice.

if you really want i can ask what brand etc.

i doubt this was any help, but i do try!:woohoo:

hey Rocket i think you may mean techni ice

Wonder what other additives are with the castor oil?, btw I used the “environmental aspect of castor oil to shut down acouple of 2T haters on another forum this week. Friggin’ idjits “yeah we ride fourstrokes cause it’s good for the environment” Don’t give me that crap, if you want to leave a smaller footprint ride a kangaroo
