Status: offline 		you have an awsome place to run. looks like fun out there!! baja looks good! im not too sure bout that motor tho. it seems a little bogy for me. almost like its not peaking on the rpms. it would be well worth the putting on a $70 head kit and a high rpm clutch spring. that will get you up to 28.5cc for less then $100 bucks. but it still looks and sounds great!

Status: offline 		Sounds as though it needs a decent tuned pipe to wake it up a bit,the 23cc CY engines that are in the real 5b seem pokier than that stock.Great looking though and for the money you can't really go wrong,love the plain alloy chassis with the black shell....

Status: offline 		I got the pipe . I like it. I could not get it on with the xport specer. The pipe would not go back far enugh. I havent run it much though. I was runing it at my lokal motor x track and jumped it of the top of a table top. Just as it left the ground it hit a lump and kicked the back up. It landed hard on one frunt wheel and riped it of. After the day in the dunes I notised I had brock the frount suspention brace as well. I ended up making one for now. I will probaly by one from DDM as I like the pipe and I like some of the other stuff as well. I'm geting some sand wheels for it at the momet so I'll do another vid then. When it riped the wheel of it dident brack the suspention arm just pulled the e clip of the stub axel. I might get a set of extended axils for if soon but all it needed was a new clip and it's all good for now. It all so brock the bumper mount as well. I have got some more pick's of the engine as well and the radio box. I tested the faile safe to day. I have put my JRXS3 in it now and with the antena calapsed I got about 100m and then the throtel servo went back to nutral and and the stering went stupid. Of corse the faile safe is one the trotel only. Do any of you know what engine it is? I have never seen one like it. Im just a back yard basher. How good are the alloy parts? Are they woth it? I wory a bit that they only bend wonse where plastich parts go back to ther arigonal shap most of the time. Some of the shoks are starting to leek now as well.

Status: offline 		The shock o rings are a soft blue rubber. I see a lot of talk about baja shoks on this forum. So is ther a good rebild kit out there or just by HPI baja rebild kits? The pick's are just of the stock stuff.
