Reasons to check your reeds frequently

[James]

WHAT A CATCH. I can't imagine how much further I could have gotten on this piston before the skirt let go. I would have been stranded miles and miles from the truck...

You lucky son of a gun.

Things like this scare me I didnt even know what the hell a reed was, let alone that I may have one!

Don't worry 4 strokes don't have any.

WOW DUDE! Your one luckey mofo! Roost for that

I don't think you have anything to worry about as reeds are a two stroke thing.

Whew...no wonder I hadnt heard of it, I dont have one lol Thanks Cleonard, I learn so much from you all here

I'll probably do a simple How-to thread on top end inspection and replacement. Should be a few days before the new parts come in the mail. -BIG DAN

A 2 stroke crankcase is seperate from the tranny. And you call yourself a professional stand sitter.

I would normally say, "why do you need to embarrass me in front of my friend like that?", But I realized that I do not have any friends on here. So I will just say, "Thanks for calling me out!"
When you are a pro stand sitter like me, you never have to know about bike repairs, only cleaning and polishing technique.

Your right. I shouldn't expect a stand sitter to know things as complicated as a 2 stroke oiling system. I am shocked it took you so long to catch my insult.

I have been missing in action with mass work, so I may be way behind, just like my riding skills..I'll try to catch up..

Hey Dan, you can create it in here. https://www.dirtbikeaddicts.com/forum/content/section/113-dirt-bike-how-s.html

Don't forget to upload the pictures directly to the forum so that you don't have to worry about hosting them elsewhere.

Thanks
