You gotta re-thread them holes

You might be able to use the same chain without adding links , depending how big the sprocket is .

i know im re-threading them, i drilled the holes out a little bigger too, only a couple thousandnths of an inch tho so i can start with fresh metal on metal, with no nics or dings. i wont be able to run it with the size chain i have on it, i need about 5 more links, i was running a 28 tooth and not im runnin like a 38 or whatever is stock on the x15, i bought it with the 28tooth already installed im just putting the stock back on cuz its bigger.

How many do you? 40? That leaves you with plenty of practice time

At least 10.5 a day , sometimes more . And that doesn't include the one hour drive to work each way . Also doesn't include saturdays sometimes .

I also work second shift . Which means i come home well past midnight .

I don't remember ever seeing any of your guys pics. or videos

Maybe i'll go out this weekend in the snow

Re: Oh Yes !!

Re: Oh Yes !!

i was impressed with the progress i made today on gettin back circles, i was doin them better than i ever have before, i had a few good ones, for the most part i was gettin 1 full circle then goin into the second highsiding it out, how do you guys keep your balance? ill try to get sum pics or a video up but im not very technologically inclined, i have a youtube account but my comp wont let me load the flashplayer so i cant watch anything on it. ill do my best to try to get a vid up asap then maybe you guys could tell me what im doin wrong
