Safariland ALS...what friggin model is it?

Safariland holster finder is absolutely no help. I keep winding up at the page for a DS Prodigy. Is this the same holster model?

I need a holster with the Safariland hole pattern that preferably has active retention. Prefer to stick to an actual Safariland holster. Will be for a 4.5F that will end up with a threaded barrel and comp. - Can someone tell me exactly what model it is or provide a link? I know it's a 6390RDSO-572 but it never says "Echelon" anywhere.

I've considered getting a Ragnarok to hold me over but really don't want to wind up with another box full of holsters I don't use.

Thanks for any help.

Removing nut from stripped mounting bolt?

I used one of those cheap adapter plates to mount my Predator 224. The plate is fine, but the hardware it came with is trash and one of the bolts to mount the engine stripped. I need to take the engine off but the nut just keeps spinning in place. I tightened another nut on the top to try to create enough torque to get it off, but the bottom nut just continues to spin in place, even when I hold the top nut with a separate wrench.

Apart from cutting it off, is there any possible way to get this nut off the bolt?

Used Aventon bikes, older models

Looking into getting an Aventon. I was interested in the Aventure 3, but saw this on MP. $825 w/ about 1800mi. I'm not familiar with their older and/or discontinued models. Any reason to avoid? Price seemed reasonable.

Mounting Plate Hardware for engine block

Does anyone know what size hardware is used for the adapter plates that mount a Predator 212/224 block to the GMB100, Doodle, etc? One of the screws stripped and I need to get some replacements.

Any idea the best way to get the nut off other than cutting? I was going to try tightening a second nut against it to see if there was enough torque to get it off.

Stage 2 and clearance-ing ...any step-by-step guides?

Is anyone aware of a solid guide and video for clearancing all the parts in a Predator 224 stage 2 build? I'm having a hard time finding a good video. They either skip over it and/or the camera angles are trash.

What's the best for it? A Dremel?

Replacing stock Predator 224 carb with Nibbi

Got the carb to do a swap this weekend. Bought some cheap grips with throttle cable, and jet kit. Carb comes with the intake adapter manifold, fuel filter and air filter.

will I need a new fuel line? I just thought of this when looking at the stock line that looked pretty short.

I don't have a fuel shut off valve, so I'll order one for the future...is there anything else of any necessity I'm overlooking? I haven't done a stage 2 on the engine and likely won't, so I did buy a tachometer to keep an eye on rpms. I'm not a total speed demon and don't imagine it will be an issue with how I ride it. After watching people do it on YT, I think I'd almost rather just get a Studz Tillotson backyard bully and be done with it.

Rep Leg Roller 2.0 vs. Rogue Rack Roller?

I have a Rep Nighthawk bench, but was originally considering getting a Rogue rack roller for my RM-6, primarily for Nordics and Bulgy split squats with a Yoke bar.

Now that Rep came out with the roller 2.0, wondering if I could get by with it as opposed to spending $400 after tax on the Rogue item.

Anyone have experience with both that they can share? Mainly concerned about the width of the bench for Nordics as opposed to just using a pad on the floor. I'm also not sure how it would work for split squats or not. Never saw anyone try it.

Best budget J-cups (Rogue Monster compatible) ?

Who makes the best J-cups dollar for dollar that are compatible with Rogue Monster (3x3, 1")?

Just can't stomach $300 for a spare set of sandwich cups. BoS looks pretty decent for $141.

Predator 224 Installed on the GMB100

Posted here last week about gradual vs complete rebuilds. Ended up doing the bare minimum to add the 224 to my GMB100 frame. Worked out great with some slight tinkering. Exhaust doesn't fit quite right for this frame, but I'm only losing the rear fender. Added a license plate to the top after this photo.

Throttle is pretty tight with the return spring, and they don't snap back super well. Next upgrade will be new bars and a Nibbi P24 carb.

All in all, huge improvement over stock. Loving it.

What is happening to my temp?

Running super low all of a sudden. About the last hour of two racks of ribs. About five mins before this picture it was at 157.

Just cleaned the firepot out this last weekend.

License plate - How to make fender/flap

I've seen some of you guys that use old license plates as a mid flap/fender off of the rear of the frame. Are you guys just bending them and welding to the frame?

I'm completely new to minibikes. I had a Kawa 110L pitbike that I worked on, but never did anything super in depth outside of carb tuning, checking valve clearance (no top end rebuilds, big bore kits, etc).

This is a bone stock GMB100 I got to play with. Wanting to do a Predator 212 swap, but worries about biting off more than I can chew for fear of too much troubleshooting if something goes wrong.

I was going to do all the major engine upgrades (billet flywheel and connecting rod, 18lb springs, torque converter, etc) but think it might be too much at one time. Would it be better to do small upgrades?

From what I understand I'll need a mounting plate, 10T clutch, clutch spacers, 420 chain, carb w/ jet kit, intake, exhaust, 50T sprocket, and new throttle cable, correct? That would be bare bones to get the 212 up and running?

Looks like it has the frame cutaway for deeper stretch, more robust cable/hinge design, and moveable weight horn for added resistance. Basically appears to be a less beefy version of the more expensive GMWD LE08.
