after 4 blown motors this year I wish I still had my LT 250R suzuki it would at least hold together for more than 1 tank of fuel. 18 Hours is a long drive to use a borrowed bike. I think I'll stay home and go snomobiling if there is any snow. If not I'm gonna go party or watch the superbowl that I beleive is the same weekend.

you are absolutely correct on that. I'm ready to stick it up my honda dealers *** and ask him how that is for honda reliability. I'm getting a new bike as soon as I have money for it and The new one will for darn shure not be red. I love every thing about this bike other than the reliability but it really don't matter how much I like it if it never runs. I didn't even get a full tank of gas through it last broke in september!!!!!

Todd Tell Reed to put some hondas over a few berms for me in cali would ya? Best of luck to every body that makes the trip and I wish I could be there.

good luck on that holeshot

My motor is close to stock it's got a baldwin 12:1 piston and baldwin MX cam but other than that the motor is stone stock. None of my 4 explosions on the motor this season have had anything to do with the top end either and you know that costs $$$$ This is my 3rd set of freakin cases

I dont know who your dealer is but w/o coming out and sounding offensive.................Are you sure its not the DEALER that keeps messing it up?? God knows there are ALOT of them out there... Been there.... Done that...

It looks like this thread got hyjacked.
Bryan....... Sorry to hear your having such a bad time with your Honda. Reed probably won't be seeing too many Hondas in the Youth production class (mostely Blasters), but I'll see what I can do in the production B or 4-stroke B class.
Dirtmomma............... Reed's going to practice his '06 with his new Holz/Fox set-up, at RMC and he'll make up his mind weather or not we are going sunday. The jumps are a little mellower than last time, to cater to the "flat-trackers". But he does want a shot at Mia C. Last time he could't jump because he didn't want to land on Mia, and he couldn't pass him on the flat track part.

It was this last time. They pulled the crank in wrong and messed up the sleeve that goes over the end of the crank. Other than raping me on prices he had nothing to do with the last problems. There has to be a few 300EX's in the youth production class Daddio that would work for me.
