Status: offline 		I had just returned from a two week business trip last night, and reassembled my Savage after breaking the screw that holds the clutch assembly in the transmission. While I was gone I had received the parts from Tower Hobbies.

I had previously run 2 tanks of gas through my new Hyper .21 8 port and had leaned it out a bit. (Broke 1 pullstart, ordered 2 new ones from Tower Hobbies).

After reassembling (and while still using a pullstarter I rigged by bending the end of the spring back into shape and using mini blind venetian chord) I fired her up last night. The freaking spring slipped again and the chord hung out ~6"

Anyway, she started so I wasn't about to shut her off. Figured I would run some more fuel through and test the 2 speed tranny out. Was running it still a little rich, picked it up to see if I could hear 2 speed shift (It didn't) even after revving to high rpms. Got pissed, put the Savage and the ground and decided I would give her a run.

No top, Chord hanging out, mashed the throttle and she almost flipped over backwards.....

Holy freaking wheel stands batman..... oh sorry! Was a little excited!

16T clutch bell, 30 weight silicon oil in shocks, and wheelies with a 8 port

Had to take apart again to install new pull start. Also, backed off the screw for the 2 speed shifter. Hopefully today the pull start won't break, and it'll shift and pop wheelies.

Sorry so long.
