i did these were the carbs from hell... he said all these things needed replaced.. i trust that they did i just wished he would have kept me on board

ughhh well, that's kinda how it goes. The 650 carbs can cost about $200 in just parts to rebuild. Air cutoff valves go and they're $10-$15 each, gasket sets are $30-$40 each... accelerator pump... I think that was $15 or $20...

that price sounds reasonable considering all the parts that were replaced.

pimpin my #$%* all over the forum.
not really, I just want to show it to you guys, in case you dont go to that other thread...

Frankenkit · « **Reply #24461 on:** February 25, 2010, 05:24:42 PM »

That looks #$%*ing hot.

would riding in the rain with those drilled like that add to the possibility of the drums getting wet and not doing their thang right? just wondering because I might want to do that to my 350...

Is it possible to put a drain hole at the bottom somewhere so if water does get in it has somewhere to drain out.?

Mick

Industrial Cafe · « **Reply #24463 on:** February 25, 2010, 05:50:01 PM »

I've already modified the drain slots and drilled holes at the bottom so the wind going by the cover creates a better way out.

also I don't do alot of rain riding.

if anyone wants me to drill a cool pattern in their #$%* just pay actual shipping both ways and I'll do it for free.

the technological J · « **Reply #24464 on:** February 25, 2010, 06:17:15 PM »

what did u use to get those holes so big?

Industrial Cafe · « **Reply #24465 on:** February 25, 2010, 06:29:26 PM »

a 15/16 carbide drill bit and a round sided finishing file to make them come out round.
(that big of a bit makes a wonky hole)

the technological J · « **Reply #24466 on:** February 25, 2010, 07:14:41 PM »

how easy would it be to make on of these? it seems like it wouldnt be too bad

Sure is pretty....them little holes in the brake pad kinda look like little eyes peekin outta the big holes...heh..went skiing and pulled a muscle, took a couple pills....might be TUI...

I would still be concerned about rain gettin' in there, even if it has a route out. The water still reduces braking.

Industrial Cafe · « **Reply #24471 on:** February 26, 2010, 07:17:10 AM »

I'll let you know if it's an issue once I get it on the road.

I've gotten caught in the rain plenty of times with this cover and didn't have a problem,

...granted, the holes are smaller but there's a #$%*load of them.
