It's hard to keep a drivers license riding a 2 stroke dirt bike on the street.  If you drive within the law they are VERY boring.

So you want to see dirty pics of my bike?
This is after a 3 day ride.
If you ride it fast the dirt doesn't stick very well..

Dave means instead of making a longer bolt, cutting a bit from the cylinder will have the same effect.

Some nice pics there Dave when clicking further.

Ahhh. I thought he meant it made servicing the top end easier.   And couldn't think of how.  

I'm in the same page now.

Would be easy as pie to plunge cut that on the mill when you had the top end off.

I modified my oem bolt a couple years ago in a few minutes...but I know...it's a bling factor, to have a nice anodized or titanium bolt :-D

some day I'll get a phone that takes pics worth a f**k :|
