@TheGusto69 aa kk thats pretty good. thanks

@fatdrood Search "yoshimura cherry bomb" or "yoshi power bomb". If your bike is de-restricted it wont run right without it. Maybe thats why your wanting more power ;) Its basically an RMZ with changes to cam, gear ratios in 1st, 2nd, and rake of front end. Everything else is the same. It goes hard as hell! Same piston, valves, etc as RMZ, same frame, everything is the same as far as i know.

@TheGusto69 yea i got all the restrictors taken out,need to try find a cherry bomb been looking for a nz website that sells but not having much luck so far

[TheGusto69]

@fatdrood The bike shop de-restricted it when i bought it and when its de-restricted a power bomb, or cherry bomb is needed as the bike is fuel injected and needs to be tuned for the better breathing, etc. I would think almost all bike shops will do this for you when buying one. The restrictions from factory are rediculous. You have like 1/5th throttle travel, a plugged exhuast, restricted air box. The power bomb or cherry bomb is a must as you will be taking the all the restrictors off.

@TRITTYcat As for valves, rebuilding etc. Check thumper talk, it seems to be very durable with basic maintenance. People have reported perfect clearance after many hours or Kms. The bike shop also told me this. Keep your air filter clean which is no problem and do your oil changes, it should go strong for a long time. I bought two extra air filters which i keep oiled in sealed bags and take one or two away with me when riding so a quik change is quik and easy. Its a quality bike, very powerful

[fatdrood]

@TheGusto69 have you done any mods to it? just been reading up and they reckon to put a cherry bomb on it

[TheGusto69]

@TRITTYcat From what i have read and my little experience the maintenance is pretty straight forward. Oil, air filter, and chain. Clean your bike after rides to look for anything loose. Oil is one compartment, not like a CRF so quik and easy to change. Doesnt filth its oil too much. But, i dumped my oil after first tank, it was dirty, then after doing another100Kms, was pretty clean, will dump after another 200Km to see how it looks but id say it will be fine.

@fatdrood Nice work! Yea ive done a bit of riding on my now, mostly in Strathbogies (melbourne, Australia). The bike is absolutely awsome! Best bike ive riden. Still havent bought an IMS tank for it yet as ive been spending a lot of money since i got the bike, but will have one in a few weeks id say. The bike is amazing on the trails, its so stable, and all that grunt can really get you out of trouble when suddenly faced with something you didnt expect and fast on steep washout trails.
