What would you like to see?
« on: January 20, 2011, 04:56:31 AM »
Okay.. Im all for advancing the website..  as I pretty much live here...

We have lots of great information going. as well as Doordie was nice enough to do the "top end" writeup..

I have a motor that will be going together here very soon..

Is there anything that people would like to see?

Video?
Bottom end writup?

Bottom end. Especially crank assembly and putting the cases together.
2000 KX500
2005 XR650L

Neither are stock, and both are great desert bikes.

I am also very happy with this site.
I appreciate all the technical information and the efforts of those who take the time to document what they are doing, not to mention the efforts of the site owner.
Something that I would like to see would be a library of "How To" articles, both written and in video.
We have many articles as well as the search feature, yet if a new section was added it could be searched by browsing the "How To" and then by the article of interest.
It could even be organized by your favorite builder ect.
A section on interchangeability could be added as well as pictures of parts with measurements.
Many times the book will say a part will fit Years X through Y.
In reality the part may fit many other years but it may have a different part number because of a color change.
I know this seems like a big task but the sooner you start, the sooner it gets done. :-o
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

Unfortunatly its not my place to ask that question on this site...

Now come over to beatyourtruck.com and the tables turn...

So... I have a very nice video camera, still camera, and mediocre writing skills.... what would you like?

X3  That would be very good. Can you add some pretty girls to give a pleasing visual effect?
