    What can I do with a broken Cheyenne Thunder??

    Hey guys, so as some may know I was completely ripped off by TattooMike (Michael Hernandez) on here for £300, and all I got was a broken Thunder... So I'm wondering what can I do to make the most out of this, rather than having a broken machine sat in my draw. Obviously Cheyenne won't get back to me now and told me to contact the supplier, which I can't so I'm thinking about opening it up, re spraying it and trying to get a new motor.

    Does anyone know of the motor I would need? Or a replacement I could get?

    Maybe it has other uses? Ive already tried a coaster but that doesn't work too well.

    Thanks,

    J

    If you open it is there no serial number on the motor?

    if you take it apart there should be a number on the motor - you can look it up online and see what it is.

    I have never seen one let alone taken it apart, but if you get that info I can try to help you locate a motor for it

    I've taken my og hawk apart loads of times they are easy to do but remember don't unscrew the body until you undone the 3 Allen screws at the back holding the cable connection they are under a little screw on cover.

    Here is a question. Between the og and the thunder did the shape of the cam change? A friend of mine thinks he was sold a knock off cause the cam and some of the assembly of the thunder vs an og are different. Canadian distributor sold it to him at a convention and he is convinced its a Chinese knock off now. Because the cam is not the same.

    I would like the stroke of the thunder with the motor of the spirit.
