well it looks like im just going to leave it alone for now. gonna have to get them pulled out with a slide hammer or something

tigmaster · 08-22-2007, 04:30 PM

ship it to me and ill do it for free.

fatcat · 08-22-2007, 05:56 PM

well how long would it take? im getting the cilender back soon i hope. i dont want to have to wait another week to ride i figure i could put some self tapping sheat metal screws in the dents and have the holes welded up. think that would work? if our shop hadent burnt i would have the welder and this would be easy.

UPS told me that to ship to jamestown, Tennessee it would be $8.30 for a package that is 24*8*8 and 10lbs. that should cover a pipe and it said 2 days shipping. so if u shipped it tmrw i would get it by sat, then return it to u either saturday or monday giving u the pipe by wednesday. i can do it in about 30 minutes.

how long would it take you to clean the carbon out of the pipe while your at it? if you have the stuff to do it with. the shop said it might be another week before i get the cylinder back so we might work something out.
btw i don't expect you to do any of this for free.

tigmaster · 08-22-2007, 08:57 PM

o, i can do it for free as long as u pay for shipping both ways. as far as the carbon, my buddy and i made this sweet carbon remover tool so i can get it clean relatively fast.

ill warn you tho its got 2 big dents in it. after i call the shop tommaro and see when i will get the top end stuff ill know if its worth it pm me your address so i can get this mailed off quicker would the post office mail it because th nearest ups is a hour away

tigmaster · 08-22-2007, 09:47 PM

ya the post office is usually cheaper but i normally dont get a real rate from them. just make sure that u dont tell them that it was ever related to gas or oil.

o and if the dents are super huge i can cut them out and hammer the back to the pipes shape, then re-weld them. i also have the super sweet sanding disk for my angle grinder that will make it look like it was never welded.
