Open Forum / Words from Kent Howerton!!!!!!

« on: August 03, 2011, 10:44:07 PM »

I was sitting with Kent and his boy at our local track over the weekend. He asked us how to ruin a perfectly good running motor? We had no clue what he had in mind for an answer but he said put valves and cams on top of it. We got a good laugh out of that one.

Photos & Videos / It's official: New IRIN Bike on the way

« on: May 31, 2011, 07:22:28 PM »

Well, Please dont bash me for this. I am starting on a 2009 KX250F for the IRIN.
I know, I know it's not a 2 smoke. However the program is not about 2T vs 4T. It is for helping riders.

With help and generosity of several companies, parts are already on the way.

A HUGE thanks to the following:

FMF
All Balls
HEL Braking (FL location)
Pit Posse / outlaw racing
Cylinder works, hot cams, hot rods, vertex
More to come

I will start a new thread in the photos section later this week.

« on: February 03, 2011, 08:50:33 PM »

This is a friend s bike. 03 CR250. Approximately 15 total hrs since new.

It just never gets used. Now he wants to sell it. Wish I had the extra dough for it.

I just dont understand how someone can have a nice smoker and let it go to waste like this.

General Two Stroke Talk / IRIN RM250 tckets now up for sale.

« on: February 01, 2011, 06:38:19 AM »

As a lot of you know, I am building a former ECC RM250 for the IRIN program. I am getting really close to being done with it. Several people have asked about tickets so I figured now is a good time to start selling them. The plan is the hold the drawing around the 5-10 of March.

Tickets are $40ea. However, If you buy 2 or more the 1st ticket is $40 and others are $30ea.

I am not set up with paypal but may end up doing that.

You can mail a money order or personal check.
Once I receive the money and your contact info I will mail you a ticket or email your ticket number.

I need to sell as many tickets as possible. This is for a good cause for injured riders.

PM me your number and I will call you for tickets purchases.

Thanks,

Photos & Videos / Jonny Aubert ECC RM250 restoration (IRIN Program)

« on: January 16, 2011, 11:06:54 PM »

As some of you may know, I built a really trick CR125 former works bike last year.
Since then, I have set up a program for local (south TX) injured riders. The program is called IRIN (Injured Riders In Need) I am restoring bikes from the frame up and they get sold by raffle or auction. All the profits go to injured riders. I am working on getting completely set up for non profit but good ole uncle sam is a PAIN to deal with. I must say, I am shocked at the awesome support I receive from major companies on these builds.

I would like to send out a HUGE thanks to the following companies.
Pivot works
Namura Pistons
Shift racing
All Balls bearings
Hot rods
Galfer braking
FMF
Moto hose
Kent power sports
Decal Works
H-E-L brakes
RK chain

With that being said, I am now doing one of Jonny Auberts 2004 RM250 ECC bikes. I am not building it as it was, it is being done a major twist.

Here is where I am at with it so far. I will keep the thread updated as I work on it.

Photos & Videos / New toy to play with.

« on: August 06, 2010, 08:59:05 PM »

Long story short. Bike was stolen and recovered with help of lojack. A friend of mine at a local dealer got it for me really cheap. Only missing mids, lowers, and lower tank covers.
Only 1450 miles with clear TX blue title.

I figured I would toss on the panels and do some knee dragging or sell it and make some $ off of it.
