Headed for a dune trip, and will get down to about 30 degrees at night. Anything I can do to prevent it from not running the next day? Thinking maybe I'll pull the battery. Anything else?
My Raptor failed to start only once. Overnight it was -30
After a little time in the trailer with heat & jumper cables it fired up.
The air filter was frozen solid :lol:
My 2006 still has the original battery & @ 0 degrees it fires up after a few cranks.
Put a insulated cover over her or him.... :D
Gaber you'll be fine. I camped out a couple of weeks ago and when I got up there was ice on my raptor. It fired right, no problem. I had to choke the kfx though. Oh well you can't win em all.
youll be fine...
it was below freezing here today with about 3 inches of snow on the ground... and i had to wipe the caked ice off the grips when we got out... but i went riding today... :grin_nod: :grin_nod:
Like Bert Said. I've only had one time as well when the rappy didn't start and it was basically to fookin cold out to ride anyways. it was around -20 to -30 air temp. WindChill was -40 ::)
you will be fine. I woke up to snow all over at sand mountain and she fired right up. :thumbs:
you should be fine man. i've been riding with ice freezing onto the fenders before and i didnt have a problem with gettin the rappy to start when i got it out of the truck
check your rear brake pads aren't frozen over...or wheelies are bad idea. Don't ask how I know. :lol: Oh, and water had goetten into the throttle rocker on my 660 and frozen it once causing throttle to be stuck open for a split second. Not sure if 700's have that though.
