Hi Guys,

I have for sale my old BMX/freestyle bike. It's a mongoose Villian which is a chromoly tube fram bike - very light. It hasn't been used for ages so could use a clean and some oiling etc. It's a great bike.

Asking $130. Pick-up only for this, in sydney.

I also have my other bike for sale too it's a Haro (I forget which type). It has sweet Skyway 5 spoke mag wheels which are pretty cool. It also needs some attention as it hasn't been used for ages either.

Asking $90 for this one. Also pick-up only.

Will sell both for $200. With a little bit of work these are kick ass bikes.

Nar dont send me those pics that size.. Ill tel you how to shrink them down..

Right click on the pic and open it with windows paint.

Once the file is open in paint press control W and it will open up with a box labelled stretch and skew.

In the stretch section type in 30 in horizontal and vertical and press ok, this should have shrunken the image to a good size..

Then save it as a jpeg, there will be a drop down box and it should already be on jpeg but could be on BMP. BMP is too big, change it to jpeg if it needs it..

Then save the file: save as: if you press save as it will save the new image and save the old one in its original size. if you press save it alter the image to the small size forever.

Cheers.

thanks mate. as you can tell I'm a bit noob.

Figured out how to just re-size them on the camera then bought them in to work on the external HD (which by the way absolutely rocks).

so here's a couple of pics:

with some cleaning up and servicing these will both be great bikes. far better than the one in your avatar. :rofl:

seriously though, when new these cost nearly $1000 between them.

      That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.

      I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.

      Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
