Skalla - Swampy's definitely a 100% right - Go ride and enjoy it! Do each mod that you want to do 1 at a time so if there is a glitch - you'll have an idea of what caused it. Most of all enjoy, have fun, be careful, and ride it like you stole it!
(when it feels comfortable to do so - lol)

Indy - she just said hey in the photo section.

So I found this lock online looks very convenient. You can lock up your helmet and your jacket. I am going to order one. I'll let you guys and gals know how good it is. http://www.boltlockcorp.com/index.html

Skala - Welcome to the Dark Side!!

Wolf - Hmm...very interesting, I will be waiting for the report.

Also, is anybody looking for pretty much anything?

Got my cast off! They put me in what I call a "moonboot". Still cant put any weight on it (so the doc says)for another couple weeks. The pain is subsiding finally so all is going as well as expected.

Glad to hear it. However, you may expect your foot to be swollen for a long time (year+). It may not be as bad if you're not on your feet for a living.

Hi all,

Added a Speed Chart for the Blast to the data page similar to the ones I created for the Uly (XB12X & XB9).
This assumes 72" of travel per wheel revolution.

Here's a link to the Blast Speed Chart.

You can also find it on the Data page.

Yeah, too low... Maybe for EPA?

Or to get 72 MPG... LOL

Just added for reference.

Made it to 126 today, 63 mpg, mostly city driving. I've been trying to drive sane and not like a hooligan. It ain't all that easy, though.

08Uly: Can you increase the Blast speed chart up to 7500 rpm or even higher?(some off us do run the rpms that high!)

Heck, if you wanted, you could push it to probably 8500 before the piston separated from the crank and slammed into the head.

Here you go. Very easy to install. I added the nylon washers for vibration.

Used the lock yesterday. It is so nice not having to carry my jacket and helmet around. Leave it behind and have piece of mind that it will be there when I get back.

Stock rev limiter 6500 rpm. Stock valves float at 6800 rpm or so.

I took my family to a late dinner tonight. As you all know my mother-in-law died last week and the funeral and all was last Friday. My daughter had a birthday last weekend also but with the funeral the plans to go canoeing got pushed right out of the picture. My daughter has two favorite resturants and one of them is by my house, The Cancun Mexican Resturant. Anyways after dinner I was explaining to the owner about how this is my daughters favorite place to eat and that due to a funeral last week we are celebrating it tonight. He immediately calls all the waiter together and bring out fried icecream and a big sombrero to put on Hollie then sing her a birthday song.

I told you all that to tell you that today I bought the Big Kid a 93 Ford Festiva to drive back and forth to work in the bad weather days we will be having for the next 8 months here in Michigan. Hollies new boyfriend of the month asks the Big Kid "So how do you like the new car?" The Big Kid answers "It's OK but I'm never going to get laid again" To which the Little Kid resopnds "gee, maybe we should have got it a little sooner"
