Those red asv's look sick on there. :thumbs:
yea, what exactly is the dif between F3 and C5. ASV's are on my mod list and im not sure which ones to get ??? :help:
from what i understand the c5 are cnc machined where the f3 are forged. so the c5 like to bend more than snap. and they give you a 5 year warranty with the c5

Nothing better than a freshly armor all-ed quad. My riding crew thinks I'm OCD for shining my plastics but they wonder why mine looks so good all the time 8)
same here my ridin buddies basically just rinse there quads and they are done. not me. i spend 3 hours or so washing then it still doesnt look good enough, but armor-all makes er look good as new.
well i looked in the garage today. to make sure my rappy was still there. lol
Lol. Yeah I just use my garden hose here at home, and what doesn't come off I just let it be.

Yeah I was going to go with the F3's but I wanted silver to match my nose piece so I had to get the C5's.. I am sure I will like them. Happy with yours?
P.S. Shookie, nice signature now. :P

i love them.. they have a quick adjust that comes in handy, and the feel of them are great. plus they break away.. they look good too
hey DF which ones are shorties, F3 or C5?
F3's. But you have to make SURE you order the shorties because they make the F3 standard and the shorties. And also if you order them from a site, the 06 models are different from 07 and up. Make sure ya watch that. :thumbs:
Oh... and yet AGAIN. UPS has failed me. Either that or some kid walked by and snatched my package. :confused:

One more day till my new bars are suposed to be here. I find my self checking the tracking every five min it doesent seem to change. :(
Lol..yeah i hate it. And it seems like it stays in the same place for 5 days then it's at your door. stupid how it's set up. I just want my damn levers!!! So I can order something else lol. :batman:
Mounted up my bead locks and put them on the rear and mounted up 2 more sets of rear slicks.
I'm a tired mofo from breaking down all these tires. ::)
Finaly UPS suprised me this morning with my ASV's. It was a quick 10 or so minute installation, kinda confusing there for a second on the clutch side but got it figured out. Let me know what ya think. :clap:

No, it's a real problem. And it's pissing me off. Say the quad is in gear, any gear, anytime I hold the clutch it while in gear it revs like crazy. But as soon as I let out and go back into gear it milds down. And it won't do it in Neutral either. I had to unplug a wire from the stock clutch perch, because it didn't have a spot for it on the ASV. I think the only thing the wire did was make it so the quad had to be put in Neutral before it would start, im having that problem to. So now that you know this is a real question, let me know any input.

I think that wire needs to be hooked up first off. That's the clutch sensor. I can't think of why it'd make your motor rev. I just took mine out of the stock clutch perch and ziptied it to the the wire harnes near the radiator. That switch there's a little nub on the end of it. that when the clutch lever is at rest, pushes the nub in, and tells the computer that the lever is out and if it's in gear don't start the motor. When you pull the lever back. Nub goes out, tells computer you have lever pulled in so no matter what gear it's in, you can start it. I'd pull that switch out of the perch plug it back into the harness and try it.
in neutral, it is not revving? DOes the engine start revving as soon as you pull in the lever? Could it be the clutch cable zip tied to the throttle? I sorta had that problem when I bought my by bike. But it was only when I had bars cranked to the left and clutch all the way in. Engine would rev because throttle cable became too tight. Not sure why they were like that. If it is not that, Gotta be a short in clutch sensor? I was thinking 660, so I may not be as much help as I thought if, in fact, it is the electronics. Can you get detailed wiring diagrams for a rappy?

+1. I have ASV's on mine and I didn't experience that at all. :help:
Yeah I am thinking its that wire I unplugged, when I get time to mess around with it I will for sure let everyone know what it was. Thanks Krandall.
ive heard when you put asv's on you have to sodder or wrap the 2 ends of the wire together. saw that on YFZCENTRAL.
Tore up some technical trails today on the YFZ. my jetting is still SHITTY FUCKING BALLSACK BULLSHIT. ordering some keihin jets tomorrow and throwing my dynojet shit in the fucking garbage :clap:

just unplug from the perch and zip tie it up.. thats what i did and havn't had any problems.. if you unplug from the perch and the connector you will not be able to start in gear at all...
I skipped some water :grin_nod:
Took my topend off to be refreshed. Upped the compression, full race port, bigger valves, & a bigger cam, all done by VelociRaptor.
Cleaned all the hoses and wiring harness, cleaned the air filter & custom airbox.
Waiting on the hood and tanktopper to put it all back together.
Gonna be bitchin, gonna look good and should be at 75'ish HP.
Hell yeah buddy, I'm stoked for ya. When that tank topper/hood get on... there better be some pictures to back up how good you think they look. :thumbs:

I actually rode it yesterday. Took the Rappy on it's first fishing trip. :lol: We caught 17 "delicious bass"
BTW, Raptors still rule. Got cow$hit on it, though. :( Went riding on a farm.

+1 on the Napolean Dynomite fishing trip 8)
-1 for the cow pies :lol:
I installed my airbox, filter, muffler & put air in the tires. I let my 13 year old nephew ride the Rappy on my road course & did over 100 laps ??? I think he's hooked :grin_nod: Now he just needs a Raptor 250
It was "ultimate man day" on saturday Rode quads, then shot about 1000 rounds at the range, rode quads some more. Took my boys and wife fishing (they caught more). Cleaned and ate our "delicious bass", rode quads some more. Drank a few beers. :thumbs: I have a picture of the Rappy fishing and hanging out with a 6wheeled Argo. :grin_nod: Will post soon. It was a great day. My 5 yr old was trying to club the fish on the head to knock them out-less suffering, but he wasn't hitting them hard enough.-more suffering. :rofl:
a big -1 for cowpies. They took me riding through the timber, I felt something wet hit my arm, just figured I hit a puddle.....NO! THen I noticed later "mud" on my fenders. It was dry as a bone out there. The guy I was riding with says " I hope it's not cow$hit, there is a big black spot right above your nose."
Hope it's good for the complexion. :rofl:

I have a flat track road course on my dads land :thumbs:
They will work for flat track racing if I choose to race yet this year, not a fan of participating in circle track racing. Cambridge & Pipestone have TT tracks I think, my buddy went nuts racing this year since his divorce. He hasn't stopped racing since ice racing ::)
I woulda got hoosiers for flat track. those look kinda like a fork lift tire :lol:
i warmed up the 660 :thumbs: been sitting for 3 weeks
pulled rear plastics off, removed airbox and battery crate, pulled off slip-on end of stock exhaust. Got to run to homedepot for the torx head to remove the subframe :mad:

My buddy just bought his 3rd set of racing tires this summer $$$
American racer rear tires are $114 each, he's burnt up 2 sets of sticky Hoosiers.
For my track I HOPE they work fine, I've got under $400 invested in tires/rims.
My tires are med soft compound so .... I'll be happy that my tires aren't knobbies, they rip up my track
I installed the big 3 (Barkers, PCIII, ProDesign) and a dynatek ingition. Installed a stabilizer. Changed the oil and filter. Ordered a set of asv's, Flexx bars, wheel bearings, oury's, and brake pads. That reminds me, I need to get a spark plug. Oh and put on a new PRM grab bar. The grab would be nice, but the holes on it were drilled in uneven, so now it and my plastic is crooked. I'll yank that sucker of tomorrow and exchange it.
holy crap 4gunz it must b christmas where ur at
Well today i abused and put the rappy up wet. lol. i blazed a new trail with it. me and my cousin and uncles moved through about a 1/4 miles of growed up trail in about 3hrs. and we plan on finishin it off tomorrow so we have somweheres new o ride
Blew out a rear tire.......not sure how though ???
one second it was fine the next it was flat... :mad:
gonna give it the ole compressor, soapy water trick tomorrow hopefully its just a hole i can plug :confused:
Put on my grab bar. Installed my DrD reverse switch. Put on the plastic. Added some seafoam. Changed the map on my PCIII, Thanks Krandall. Made about 3 test runs on it. Gps'd at 87 (stock gears and tires) and still had alil more, but the wind blew out one of contacts so I had to shut er down on the last pass. I need to see what she will do WOT with a 15.

I got my Flex bars in, so you know what that meant. I installed them bad boys and yes its worth every dollar. I also changed the setting on the accell pump through the PCIII. I did a search and general consensus is 80-20-20, so thats where I set it. Moved the ignition over to the reverse location. Seems to work pretty well. The DrD reverse has a plug for your oem reverse knob hole, so I drilled out a 13/16th's hole in the middle of the plug and put my ignition switch in it. Fits great. Last but not least I gave the flex bars a test ride. Results= "They"re GGgggrreatt!!!" Tony the Tiger

I've been out for a while damn friggin' computer died after a lightning crash :mad: Advice of the day, get a good surge protection power bar... :mad: :mad: :mad: okay, everything fine... now.
I received ( finally ) my rear GNCC. In 21x11x9
At first, they look bad ass, but new tire always do, except cheap a$$ one :rofl:
After mounting them, which was helluva job, I put them on and they look real nice on the raptor... Let's see what they are up to now.
I was really amazed, i mean REALLY, about how they hook up, let's just say there's nothing that i've ever tried that hooked like these, even my mxr4 were no match. 1st gear is pulling the front end up on demand, 2nd is almost the same... THey really feel like if you're on pavement, but I was actually on dirt terrain... They worth every single 0,01 cent i've put on em, which i must say wasn't sure about all the praise about these tire.
I give 'em 5 out of 5, where 4 is my goal when I rate something. 5 mean for me better than I thought.
I also received my ODI lock-on grip.. They didn't ship me the model I wanted but I'll do with it. They look really great, they "lock" to the handlebar. therefore, i'm a bit afraid of these... I mean, one side of my handle bar have some grippy surface, and that side, the lock-on really bite, but on the smooth side, I must say that I had to overtight them, over the other side to get them to clamp in place. I'm afraid that side won't hold when I want it to... But I think I have a motocross handlebar, and that's why I don't have grippy surface on the right side of the handlebar.
I give 'em 4 out of 5.

FYI, alot of folks now consider the Accel pump option as a band-aid for a poorly tuned map, and employning it might actually hurt your performance vice helping it.

Yeah, it does look like it needs to be pushed over. I used the spacer from the stock setup. between the brake lever and the throttle. I'll probably change it whenever I get the ASV's on.

Thanks for the info, I had no idea. After I changed it I didn't notice a difference. Do you know by any chance what the original setting is supposed to be?
Even though it's not "today"

if you change the fuel % added to zero you should be good to go.
Thanks, Colorado700. I changed it back to 0-1-0 earlier.
I also installed ASV clutch and brake levers today. Man those babies are great. Being able to adjust the levers to fit your hands is a huge plus. They also look good on the bike. One thing I don't like about them is the fact that you can't mount the parking brake on em'. I had to strip my stock clutch lever holder and move it over to keep the parking brake. I'll eventually modify it to give it a cleaner look.

I also installed ASV clutch and brake levers today. Man those babies are great. Being able to adjust the levers to fit your hands is a huge plus. They also look good on the bike. One thing I don't like about them is the fact that you can't mount the parking brake on em'. I had to strip my stock clutch lever holder and move it over to keep the parking brake. I'll eventually modify it to give it a cleaner look.
You could do like I did:
I cut the clutch lever off completely. and made it look nice :)

Thanks Tonto. You guys r going to sandfest right? Didn't you say you'll be camping at the private campsite on the hill? We'll be headed out the thursday before. Hey I spanked a 480trx, a stretched out banshee .60 over with a bunch of 2stroke crap on it, a YZ450 2wheel'r, and a few others. I'll tell ya, that Dynatek ingition is money. Later.
i took my rear brake caliper off to clean the dirt and other debris out of there. in hopes to stop my rear brake rotor from glowing red when i use my rear brakes.
I sat on mine and made revving sounds. :rofl: braaap braaap! I was adjusting the shifter to allow room for new boots. :thumbs:
rode the crap out of mine today :clap: and didnt break anything!!! dont know how cas i bottomed out of some jumps hardcore on big rocks but its all good
Well I actually spent most of my time at little sahara on the wifes old 400ex. Trying to get her used to the 700 on her own terms. Mine is down until I finish the motor mods!!! I hate waiting, but it will be done and ready by sandfest. Got to steal the wifes and do some racing at the end of the day, man I want mine done NOWWWWWWWWW!!!
well today i just looked at it sitting in the garage. and yesterday me and the g/f took it out for a 2hr ride on the back roads around the house
done the first oil change.....

Put the Prodesign air filter kit in and hooked up the Powercommander and mapped it. Now to get a exhaust and remap. :clap:
Air, its just a minor detail which is easily fixed, it WILL be together before next weekend (provided the machining is done). :thumbs:

Don't worry, if you wanted flat black it will only take a few trips to the dunes to achieve that. :grin_nod:
I took off the Haulers and swapped them with some new Edges I bought this morning.

Put my sand tires on my new black powdercoated rims, mounted them on the quad and ready to go ride now.
Just installed my new warning label covers I got from Carbon Covers. The pics do not do them justice. They are black carbon fiber with red lettering. They do match much better than the pics show. The look great...

looks pretty good trxoutlawz :thumbs:
looked at it today and wished i could ride it :(
Checked suspension bolts, greased bushings. Re-fabricated a a bracket to hold rear fenders on-mounting tabs are long gone, and i lost the last ones. 3m inches of mud on them broke it right off. ----Gettin' ready for the dunes. :thumbs:
Oh yeah, "ninja'd" off the throttle to replace with rancher throttle. I'll take a pic after the ninja strikes the rancher. :grin_nod:
Took it out for a spin today and cleaned some rocks out of my skids
I greased the front end. Adjusted the valves. Put on some new headlights, left one was broken and dealer sold me the right one by accident so I kept and bought a lefty. Installed 90 leds. Adjusted chain. Adjusted the handlebars a little bit. Tightened the lugs. Thats about it.

I put some on my KFX last year and love em, especially on the dunes at nite. Its easy to get seperated at times and hard to tell who is in your group. So I figured if I got seperated from the group they'd be able to find me. Been told I can be seen upto a mile away, who knows, but if at least 1/4 that then Im happy. Also put led on the tip of me flag. Works great, looks great. :thumbs:

I buy em' like this and then wire them up. Way cheaper then buying them from a dealer or shop. Most of those guys want $30-40 for a wired set of 4. A freind of mine payed $60 for a set of 4 at little sahara last year. doh

rust-oleum. High temp, semi gloss. Took a scotchbrite pad and some isopropyl to them first. So far so good. Makes the rappy look updated look sweet. Painted hood black too. it's an 08 660! :lol:
Cleaned the air filter. Changed the oil, clean the chain & reinstall the plastics
I dropped mine off at Holeshot Designs in Lincoln Ca. to get the leaking head gasket replaced. And while their at it, Im gonna have them replace the 13.5:1 CP piston with a 15.1:1 CP piston. They are also installing an EKO Chromoly drag stem and lightweight handlebars, and their going to calculate the best gearing for the build.....I am pretty excited :grin_nod: :grin_nod:
Damn... :thumbs:

Cleaned it up, checked the oil level, checked coolant level, and wireed up the Battery Tender.
Next will be remove all warning labels and some other little stuff!!
Do you guys think this Rad guard i got will look weird with a silver hood covering it???
(http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b187/dmx434343/RadiatorGuard.jpg)
dmx434343 - nope & if it does then you can change it
thanks bert, im excited to mount it up. I hope it goes w/ the contour of the hood and NOT leave any of the radiator showing like some of the others.

Put it on, take a pic and then we will tell you.. :P
walked past it thinking about how its gonna be raining alllllllll weekend :(
took the g/f friend for a ride down the road and put it back in the garage to sit for the rest of the weekend
Took off all the warning labels. Now to get some carbon fiber covers!!!
pressure washed, put air filter back on..AND MOUNTED SAND TIRES!!!!!!!!!!!
I used some cheap tire dressing stuff to wipe it down. Made it look nice.
washed it and checked all the fluids. Just waiting for the mail man so I can put on my dyna ignition. sand mountain here I come. :clap: :clap: :clap:
Put the air box back on, put all the plastic back on. Cleaned it up, now I am ready to ride again...
Installed a +4 SLC swinger, tomorrow it gets a +2 TB, Dynatek Programmable Ign, trading out my quadworks fuel controller for a PCIII.
12.5:1 piston in a couple weeks :clap:
hit a tree with the pushbar. might have bent it i dont know and dont caer rihgjt npw
Installed the PCIII, Dynatec prog. ign. and the +2 TB. Found out there is a slight diference between an 07 and a 08 TB. There is a vent near the throttle position switch. On the two years they exit the TB on different sides. I don't think it affects performance.
I also installed a trick quick release sixpack rack. You can take the sixpack rack off and it leaves a beefy grab bar and flag mount. I will take some pictures and post them.
Went riding in the mountains above the clouds. Had a great ride, now I need a nap :lol:
realised that the bumpers not bent. atleast not that i can tell. but i have gotten sore as hell today. i must have hit the tree harder than i thought
rode at silver lake all weekend then looked at it on the trailer every once in a while on 7 hour drive home
stared at it. I can't believe how clean and shiny it is. I even polished the frame. :help:
yesterday i pulled the radiator drained coolant, drained shitty yamalube and put in amsoil. and while i was taking the radiator hoses off i decided to tear em :mad: so now i ordered some new pimp hoses and something secret from steve@TQS :grin_nod: :batman:

I didn't do it today, but right before I went to SL. I FINALLY put on my OMI Greasable stearing stem mount. Holy hell. Seriously.. tires in the air. there was a noticalbe difference in how easy it turned vs the crappy system of the stock one.

Hey Krandall, i have some play in my stem (houser) do you think this would help that?
is the play coming from where the stem mounts to the frame or is it ball joint play?
If it's coming from the stem. YES this is the best option to do :thumbs:
well i ordered one anyone. if it doesn't fix it then that leaves the ball joint to be the verdict...
On sunday we rode hardcore in the rain. I bent a tie rod, bent my clutch lever, and knocked my steering out of alignment. My steering stem mount already had a little play but this day made it worse!
Looked at it in the trailer :( Wishing I was still at the dunes
you and me both bro, that was too much fun.
Maybe we can make a day trip? You down?

On a dyno with 13/38 gears my Rappy went 89 mph speed sensor unhooked
wow im guessing that you have many mods and a 700?
probably, devans hit 93 on the dyno with stock gearing and tire size, he has alot of mods on his i just dont feel like lisiting them lol... we had to stop cas we made the dyno overheat before the bike got even remotely hot lol...

3 mod 700 without any wind resistance :lol:
hmmm do you have any idea what it did 3 modded before you took off the speed sensor?
thats ABOUT right id say, devans is a super 6 (big three with cam piston and tb bore) and a dynatek, and bigger valves, and i think something else, but i might be wrong :confused:
Quote from: darkside94 on September 21, 2008, 07:34:23 PM

I was clocked via pickup with it stock @ 72 mph & I weigh 260#'s
The speed sensor was unhooked while it was strapped to the dyno before any runs were made
72 mph stock no speed sensor? that sound right, i think most people get around 65 then hit the sensor
Quote from: exentix on September 21, 2008, 07:41:56 PM

No, 72 with speed sensor. Never tried after it was unhooked.
oh with the sensor? holy crap :lol:
Sounds about right. Baught some off road lights from Wal-Mart for 12 bucks and got them jimmy rigged up for the dunes in 2 weeks! I will have some pictures up soon.
ERMAHGERD i hate you! i envy people who can ride dunes, it looks WICKED fun :( unfortunatly i live in pa, no dunes here, or near here :'(

Ordered A Rox riser set up from TQS, my bars are a tad to low for my liking now
i found 2 grease zerks that i never knew about. holy smokes! (one under the rear shock, the other near the top of the swinger)
those things are sneaky!
Installed the rox 1 1/4" riser, height is better
fixin to strip some stickers off the back fenders and maybe paint the end cap on my yoshi muffler
changed out my tail light and put a black tail light cover instead of the stock white. looks sweet:)
o yeah, zip tied my back fenders to the grab bar.

I was considering that. How tall are you, if you don't mind me asking? Are you of sasquatch height? JK I kook forward to a ride report. My back hurts a bit when riding at slower rough trail speeds. Feels like the bars could go up an inch or two. Full bore, it doesn't bug me because I am crouched over the bars.

Peels, I rode with the riser on Sunday. Wow, what a diffrence on my back!! A lot less sore and much more controlable feel while riding standing up :clap:
I think it did pick up a touch (not bad) more vibration by extending the bars from the stem a bit, but I guess that makes sense.
All in all, I wont go back. Great results for a cheap purchase (TQS) :grin_nod:

oh, i thought about mine, and how much fun tomorrows ride is gonna be! woohoo, riding with 1badazz_700r and a guy with a 400z, his friend with a kfx 450, and maybe a guy with a kfx 700 and a couple of his friends :clap:
So your riding with a Yamaha and 3 Suzukis! Should be fun, we are heading to St. Joe State Park in St. Louis on halloween weekend. Can't wait
Installed HC2, was suuuper easy. Changed oil and filter. Grinded down the reverse lever. I did even more to my KFX, but I guess it doesn't count here.

no, 2 yamahas (me and the 700) 1 suzuki (400z) and 2 kawasaki's (kfx450 and kfx700)
Well, A Kawasaki and a Suzuki is the same four wheeler just different plastics. If you look at the frame of the Kawasaki it will say Suzuki Motor Corp.
yea i guess ur right, i forgot about that :rolleyes:
well i just got back, everything was all good for the most part. i outjumped everyone :lol:
only thing that sucked was my filter needs cleaned and i think it needs bolted in better cas it was missing hardcore at times, other times it was perfectly fine :confused: but anyway, i almost biffed it on this big hill TWICE, i would go up it like 10 feet and let out the clutch and give it gas and it just sputtered, so i did it again, and it did the same thing, so i stopped trying...
i did get to ride 1badazz_700r's rappy :jaw: that thing power wheelies in third gear NO problem whatsoever :clap:
That's awesome man! Glad to hear you had fun. Take some pictures next time!
i do have some pictues of the place in another thread somewhere, its pretty cool, its really open on one end and theres a small lake people do mud boggin in, and a nice lil jump. the other half is all coal strippings and little hills, its pretty cool tho cas the hills all run together, so its like your hitting a big whoop section, but the whoops are like 10 15 ft high :lol:
Heck yeah, there are a few riding spots around me. They are shutting me down everywhere. Im getting pissed!!!!!
ill find the thread from last time i was there, and a few videos and post em up.
there isnt anywhere to ride here that under an hour. two are just about an hour away, but the one place is gay and the other is fun but its closed now, seasons about over
this is where i rode at today :thumbs:
pics in here from a while ago

Test fitted my new front Sand Stars on ITP pro wheels. The polish work is so good that the reflection of the sun hit the wheel in the perfect angle that the reflection started to melt the center cap. I knew he quad looked hot with it but damn, on fire is another story!! Pictures to come soon!!!

Here's a sneak peak 8)
More in my build thread in the quad pics thread :clap:
(http://bob2bob.com/images/projectX/x63.jpg)
got my new shocks on
(http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa145/dabigbratj/Photo-0006-3.jpg)
:jaw:
It "appears" lower. Do you know if you lost any travel with those?
I can't see the pic, someone hook a brother up! And he "should" have more clearance since they are max clearance a-arms.
:thumbs:
they look good man
Thanks Randy.
Something doesn't look right there. The lower a-arm that has the bend for the max clearance is parallel with the ground. And there is no weight on the quad. Once you get on the arms will be angling down and that doesn't seem right to me.
that's what I was thinking, to me it almost seems as they are standard travel shocks with long travel arms ???
Something has to be wrong. Those arms should bend up to give the quad more clearance.
before we "jump to Conclusion" (My new board game :lol: )
I'd like a measurement of the forward frame ground clearance. :thumbs:
i will get better pics this weekend my shop was cramped cause there is another 700 tore apart next to mine. i can assure they are long travel shocks but will get better pics when i take it out
Was there any weight on the quad? And did it look like the front end sat higher with the new set up? It should sit higher to give you the extra clearance.

Why would it sit higher?
Those are max clearance a-arm and they have a higher bend to give more ground clearance.

If it were a standard travel shock on long travel arms then it would sit very high if you could even get it to mount up.
But why does it look so flat?

standard ones are longer than long travel? ???
yes it did sit higher heck we had to lift it so much just to mount shocks and get tires on like i said i will get better pics this weekend and mesure from the groun to the arm
Take a front on shot of the quad and one with you on it. I would like to see how it sits with a rider on it.
will do

Thats not what I said. Think about it. If you put a shorter shock on the arms would sit way up. You would have to lift the lower arm to get it to attach to the upper arm. Its not going to happen.
Took off starter gear cover to inspect gears, good news, probably just need starter.
thought about how i still need to order brake line clamps :mad:
The high ground clearance arms dont make the quad sit higher...they will sit just the same as any other LT arms, but the arms themselves are bent, giving more clearance there (a couple of inches).
One thing i did notice was there is a solid 2.5 inches of static sag....When jake's "petite" ;) frame gets on it, it goes down another inch+ at least.I prefer a little less sag, so I plan to bump my spring preload collars down a little to leave the arms a little further up.
we w2ill mess around with them we were kinda pissed at your last night i will prolly bring it up a little bit as well

I did think about it... mount the shocks to the top tower... they are shorter..... meaning you'd have to pull the arms way up to mount making the quad sit lower and have a lower profile. It's the whole reason people use shorter shocks for flat track racing... because it raises the a-arms up in turn making the quad sit lower.

Ok i pictured what you said in my head and that makes sense.
I think all Jake needs to do is adjust the shock and it should look much better.
yea we are gonna set them up here soon
Installed Tusk nerf bars and ESR Temp Gauge. Both look great!! :clap: :clap: :clap:
(pictures to come soon)
First pic is with no rider and 2nd is with rider we set up the shocks more to how i wanted them these are still not the best pics but much better then the other one.also looks like the 2nd pic was taken a little higher then the 1st but over all it is at least a little higher then stock let roost chime in sense he was here tonight working with me as you can see in the 3rd pic

I bought some crazy carpet to install under the rappy. Hope it will works good this winter :rofl:
Looked the the garage window at it.
Install my new seat. It really grabs you. A little stiff, but I expected that from what I have read. I'll put 10-12 hours on it this weekend and get back to y'all.

TQS provide you with a map for those mods?
Oh yeah, can't wait to get it!! Map for it? Don't know, i hope so, otherwise I got to figure out if I need to take it to get a custom map done and how much that will cost me.

every 700 big three mod package I have seen has said map included. Just curios. If not, Krandall has a site with a bunch of custom maps saved.
I have a map if u need it
Pushed mine out of the garage and cleaned it for the third time in 2 days. I live in the suburbs so of course I rode it around for a minute when I was done but thats it. :(
Got all new skid plates for xmas! YAY!

we went riding and found lots of snow. :thumbs: here are some pics, and a movie. (sorry the quality sucks but all I had was my phone.)
I rolled it at the car wash in front of about 20 people. It hurt like hell. Whats messed up is I can ride like a bat-outta hell at the trails and not get hurt, but I can't go 10 feet at the car wash without getting my ass handed to me. :confused:
I took the G/F out for her first ride today. Thats all I managed to do to the rappy today :lol:
(http://i399.photobucket.com/albums/pp79/4gunz4x4z/1230769856.jpg)
Changed back pads, changed oil and filter, cleaned the K&N, swapped the sand tires for the dirt tires, tightened my nerf bars, waxed the chain, and jacked with my busted up skid plate.

Installed my evac today.
I did a frozen hill climb spinning in 3rd and throwing roost like a mother but going 4 miles per hour. If i make the suspension a bit softer, will it help me grip a little bit better until i get new tires?
Whats the evac for? It's not turboed is it?
Not exactly for the Raptor but... I ordered the Hero Motorsport Wide Angle Camera Kit. It will mount to my cars, to my street bike, to the raptor, and to helmets!! I will get some pictures once it comes in.
Here is the site in case anyone wants to read on it.

tore it down to get ready for new stem,bars and plastic's. This stem is a little bent :lol: as you can see
What happened Badazz did you roll it?
:grin_nod: I sure did at the begginingof summer.Pretty steep hill with no room for a running shot. sat at the bottom and grabbed a handfull of throttle and held on. I got to the top and it stood up and just rested sidewayson the hill.Then it slid a little and tumbled.So i cut the plastics(big mistake for mud riding :lol:). Now its time to replace everything since winter is here :thumbs:
That sucks man. Sounds like a good plan. What color plastics you going with?
Im gonna stay with the factory grey color. tech quad shop has a hell of a deal on the grey ones anyway
took the boy out on his raptor 50. he did good for only 3yrs old. :clap:

I love to see kids learning to ride :) my son is in a wheelchair so i will never get to have that privledge :( so make sure you take the time to enjoy it :thumbs:
im sorry to hear that. well I did see on tv a guy that was in a wheelchair quad riding.(with a little help to get on and off) so maybe someday he can give it a try. :thumbs:
he has muscular dystrophy so he is not strong enough to ride and balance. i do give him rides on mine though :thumbs:

How is that working out? I couldn't imagine the torque with a 13. I can't even hook up on the trails till I'm in high 3rd.I've been thinking on going with a 15. On the other hand I went down to a 13 on my Kawi and it worked out great.
I tore the queen apart today

I really like it. I ride in an area that is left over from when they used to dredge the river for gold, so there are a lot of steep hills that are made of a p gravel type rock so the lower gear is nice for pulling the hills with out having to go down through the gears. third will get me to the top when i would have to shift down into second before. it also helps at sand mountain nv..
We got another 4" of snow saturday to sunday, my bro and I hit the trails. Freakin pain in the ass..... got stuck a bunch.... then sliding sidewayss back and forth on our icy road.... went to far. shot me right into the ditch (about 3-4' of powder....) took forever to get out.
Rappy went from 30mph to 0 in a matter of 3 feet. threw me off into a snowdrift. hit my knee on the dang handle bar..

So far, yeah. I only have about 20 min ride time on them, but I got comfortable real quick with the height. Still doing some tweaking here and there. I'm 6' if that helps any. I'll do a write up Monday or Tuesday on them. If I get a chance I'll swap out my stock bars, measure them and post up pic differences.
That would be sweat! Thanks! :clap:
Nothing, just looked at it. But I did get my Hero Motorsport Camera in!! :thumbs: :thumbs:
Still waiting on my exhaust from TQS. :(
Pulled the Corvette out of the garage, moved the Raptor out.

i took it out for a little ice riding today, and mowed down some fresh snow drifts while i was at it. :thumbs:
nothing like riding in 10 degree weather with a wind chill on top of that. ::)
Replaced a missing bolt on my hood. :clap:
Tried to adjust my Barker Duals to get a little more clearance off the frame but after everything was bolted down I end up with an tiny exhaust leak off the head on the right side :mad:
better than a leak through the rear of the can... :(
I noticed mine while idling in the winter I have a good leak through the left side (sitting on it)
Going to look into it this weekend.

Oh GERD, not that $hit again. :help: Dealer has two white 06's in the box still. And a 07 GYTR. Backup plan if he can't do a good enough deal on the 07 SE2. :thumbs: Not a bad backup plan. :thumbs:
Hey Peels you know the front shocks on the 06,s make good boat anchors. Add that to the cost. Now days the dealer should do strange sex acts upon you just to sell a Raptor. The Discounts should be deep. My son bought a 07 for 5000$ new about 5 months ago. The only thing slower than a dirt bike dealer is Chrysler.
go with the GYTR Peels. they look the coolest

I will agree with Brad on this, GYTR look the coolest! :thumbs:
Also if my memory serves me right, in 07 only the Special Editions, GYTR included had the res. shocks. In 08 they all had them. They even upgraded the shocks further in 09. Good luck and happy shopping.

Your so crazy.... ^-^
Finally washed the mud off of it from a ride about two weeks ago.. ::)
washed her than installed my dynatek ignition and took her for a quick spin it was cold. Than I went to by buddies house and installed his new barkers exhaust and his new dyantek ignition than I uploaded a new map to his pc3 than I took his for a quick spin by this time it was dark and very very cold!!!!!!
Just rode around, getting a feel for it.. Opened it up once or twice, but its very unpredictable at higher speeds.. I removed the airbox lid, and sprayed some foam filter oil on the filter. Took a couple pics of it.
(http://i40.tinypic.com/nv9pmo.jpg)
I swapped out the handle bars a couple of times for a write up. I also played around with the shocks for a few hours.
Put on a new carbon fiber dash cover.

Just giving you a hard time. I had to tap out the bolt holes for the grab bar, because I stripped one out back when I put my Barkers on. I know these damn things are weak. I bought an extra 1 a few months ago for $75 just because I know I'll break it one of these days.

I went out and fussed with my nerf bars. I want to build some Dakar style long range aux fuel tanks ,maybe on the nerfs, seems to be the spot of choice for those guys.
I rode the crap out of mine for about 2 hours over at a backyard MX track.. The track was built and 99% of the time runs Dirtbikes, so it was kinda rough for a n00b on an ATV.. But I managed to catch a lil air.. Here is a shot the wife took with her phone as I was leaving the 1st part of a double..
This was the first time in my life Ive jumped an ATV.. and I really need to practice. Im sore, and it was rough on me. I was lucky enough to not wreck, but I wont be catching air like this anytime soon again.. :lol:
I guess I need more practice, cause it just seems like most of the jumps were VERY steep and I would go real high, but not out far enough to catch the landing. Maybe cause its set up for dirtbikes.. I dunno..
(http://i41.tinypic.com/2f06dd1.jpg)
Then I dropped it off at the dealership to get my new tires put on the front, and a new stock pipe put on (freebie). I am going to be in my first race tomorrow night with my kids.. Flat track rodeo arena oval.. :clap: We are all VERY excited!
Got my wheel spacers in.

Not all just today, but as of late. Frame- doing some bracing and then looking to LINE-X it. Motor- +5 crank and a few other :clap:!

And I thought my bike was torn apart
How hard was it to put in the +5 Tonto?
Not hard at all!!! I was very nervous taking it apart. But like TROYWCC said this thing is easy. Just use alot of ziploc baggies and mark them. You can see one in the motor pic, there are probably 50 more with the rest of the quad being torn down. I can take more pics if you need them.
I'll just drop off my quad at your place.
Still got to put mine together first. Not much room in my trailer!
LOL, where are you at again.
Oklahoma.
You should do a "how to" on putting a crank in with lots of pictures!
thought about that but I am not the best at technically explaining things. But I might give it a shot and have one of the mods. look it over before it is posted. Any mod. willing to help me out with this? I have the time and right now I still have it apart for pics.
Is this an auction? I'll take the sub-frame, flexx bars, and the +3 swinger w/all the attachments. Oh wait... is this the trailer queen you've been working on since Oct? I say you ain't got the ballz to put that thing together. :rofl: To scared to ride with me huh? Hey what do you think about the PCV, have you talked to DL about it yet? I'll bet next year when you get that heep pile together a PCV might be the way to go for your bike..?..
Close oh so close.......
???
...can I ride it when your done. :P
Quit waiting to see how my motor turns out and just build it!! The auction closed!! Would like to know how much the PCV can tune on it's own. Also would really like to know how durable the O2 sensor would be in the mud and all.
Made my name plate to replace the one on my Sparks. Painted it a couple weeks ago.

It's less than $40 shipped. I ordered the
BC 906 but haven't installed it yet. The only drawback with the Sigma Computer is there's no tachometer.
A $40 hour meter/tachometer from Hardline Products could be installed if you Need a tach.

Its actually aluminum screen for windows. Does not rust, bends and cuts very easily!! $5 for a roll 3 ft. by 10 ft.
The picture is just the prototype. I am making 5 right now and got to take some time to take pictures!!
Also I will be painting a design on mine and a few other. Got a few done for friends with a Suzuki log on it. Gay!!!
Looks nice :thumbs:
Got it back together and running.Still going to change hood, tank topper and seat cover.

Tack welded that baby on today. and I started cleaning the pipes. took a scotch brite pad to the rear part of the pipes. some time this week I'll finish the headers!

have any pics? and where'd you get the kit at?
I used the BTS lights kit for $125, the kit offered on jokers vault is the same kit. They were very easy to install, fit perfectly and man are they bright. I tried to add some pic's but can't figure out how....this site is smarter than me. If you want PM me your e-mail and I will send them to you.

Krandall! I love that one, sounds like something I would do. I just do it when the wife is away, still get caught. Did you bake them in the oven? The next time we baked dinner it had a funny taste to it! I said nothing!!!!!!!!!
drove all over the place with it in the back of the truck.
scouting for a new place to ride, i was told about Sand Creek, just north of Jonesboro Ar.(about an hr from where im at now). so we made a day of it and went to check the place out( temps in the mid 30's today, not good for creek riding). found it, there was a wide enuff trail to fit the truck down to the creek....so yeah put'er in 4wd and went for it..took a couple vids(cant freakin get them off of the phone without sd micro :mad:).
anyway place looks like alot of fun, for a warm day :thumbs: . its got lots of trails for atvs and u can ride the creek with any type of off road vehicle :nana: :nana: :nana:

i finally have everything to mount my flex's and gpr stabilizer, pics up next day or so :clap:
I went downstairs to put air in the tire to see where there is a whole. Put plug #3 in the old tires. Starred at it for a while and wished I could ride. When it gets nicer out, I am going to put the headlight bracket on and the new bulb wires. I can't wait to ride. :(
my install didnt go so good, not enough room on the left handle, gonna have to think something up, wonder it the renthal levers have a smaller perch ??? either way i gotta do something
Looked at it while I was in the garage. Have not been able to ride it in about 3 months...maybe longer ??? :'(

Nope, just unplugged the radiator fan wire....cut the plug off, and ran my own wire's.
1 to the neg side of the battery, the other from the pos side, to a inline fuse.. to the switch, then to the original fan wire.

i love it, but i havent been able to really appreciate it as there is way too much snow and ice arround. i played arround with the remote dial my last run and you notice an immediate difference. one nice feature of the unit is when pushing ur quad arround in the shop you just throw the dial on 1 and its like stock steering again. lots of people say that they just set thier stabilizer and never touch it but i disagree, if you have it you will play with it :thumbs:

New ASV Levers
That thing looks freakin awesome Nowhere!!!! Nice work!
over the weekend - barker duals installed, pc v installed.
Sprayed mine off. And played in the woods most of the day. Bent my nerf bars and tore the nets loose on my right nerf bar. And decided on what colors and how I'm going to paint some stuff on it
Tried to replace a tire rod end and it threaded poorly into the aftermarket +2 tie rod. End result is new +2 tie rods and ends kit for 145 bucks! Steel and warrantied for life! But no riding this weekend cause of it :'(
Put in a solid 9 hours of ride time in a 13,000 acre dream world in montana!
Also installed my barker big bores, rear grab bar, full skids, clear cam cover, moose nerf/heel guard/foot pegs, and my CFM aluminum oil tank.
I will post pics and reviews of all items after I wash it tomorrow.
Still need to install, FCI w/box, PC3, Programmable Dyna Ignition, 15 tooth sprocket, 105.5mm cylinder, 11:1 piston, Trail Tech Vapor(waiting on big bars)
I just got back from 15 months in Iraq and this is the first time I've ridin an ATV and I must say I love it! :clap:

i stripped out my timing mark access screw head (tore it all to shit), adjusted my vavles, put in my new spark plug, found an exhaust leak, ordered new time access cover screw ($25 ::) ), and exhaust gaskets. lol and i took it out and rode it for a good while.

Just got it back last night.. it was in the shop for several days, waiting on the new TPS (throttle Position sensor) to come in from Yamaha.. Im glad to have it back finally!

sweet B-rad. That was my exact plan if I had bought the GYTR instead of the SE@. :thumbs: Going to look nice. Are you going to paint the hood?
Yeah I'm planning on painting the hood and tank topper black also one day this week. If everything works out right
Pulled the engine on my 660, cleaned up the frame and whatnot.
Finished install on my bro's Big 3 on his 08SE... AWESOME power increase ! Throttle response was crazy, and the low end improvement was VERY noticeable on just the quick little test ride I took it on. I wasn't able to get to a good spot where I could go WOT... plus he doesn't have any fluid in his rear brake !!!! :batman: I'm glad he told me that BEFORE I took a spin :lol:
I FINALLY picked up my new battery for the rappy.. It solved a few little issues I was having. I could jump it, and it'd run, but I'd get little stumbles here and there.. Smoooooth power, doesn't die randomly either. WOOT!
changed coolant, installed CCP, changed oil, cleaned air filter.
adjusted valves,tightened chain and cleaned air filter. studied the service manual to decide if i want to tackle a +5mm crank install

doit let me know if you have any questions i still have it all fresh in my mind. and imho if you can do a piston swap this will be just as easy if not easier
If its that easy im buyingthe mofo friday :grin_nod: is thereanything special i need as far as tools to split the case etc.
i washed and waxed it. took it out for a quick ride and tried to take some pics of my glowing headers.
will be putting on my paddles today (going to silver lake saturday)
ordered 1 1/8 bars, ODI grips, Dr. D reverese lever, and key relocator
Fixed My Oil leak.
Installed my new stronger Lonestar +2 tie rods. So tough looking I weeped a little
cut the wrong wire and ruined something..
just installed my FCI intake, now i have to take it back off to get the throttle body off for the GB
i replaced my messed up timing access plug with my new one.
polished it, took some pics, rode the kids around the yard. Washed the wife's prairie.
(http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d162/bit646/P1010164.jpg)
Washed my quad and it wouldnt start, then it started occasionally and sometimes the starter barely worked at all. So I dug into everything electrical for the starter and found this lil guy before I got to far. This ground wire was just chillin between the bracket for the headlight. The bolt had fallen out of the headlight bracket allowing it to just bounce around. YAY for not having to buy a new starter!
And then I torched the end off my dual gasser when I was trying to bend the thumb portion to fit my hand. The thing was way uncomfortable at the track. So now stock thumb throttle needs to go back on....bummer.
Installed my Pro Taper Pad and the Full Trinity Limited Edition Exhaust
(http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g42/NaLd0/IMG_0040.jpg)
^^ nice looking exhaust
Really nice lookin exhaust!
Sent new wheels to the powder coater and installed 22" haulers on my polished wheels and man what a difference! I will post pics when i get wheels back from powder and throw paddles on them.
Dropped my engine off yesterday afternoon :thumbs:

Recieved my Maxxis Razr 2 Rears, installed my GPR 4 remote steering stabilizer, dropped off my lower a-arms at the machine shop to machine them for my new front suspension application and recieved my custom axis dual stage w/ ressies in the mail. Eventful day I think......

I cut off my soft Oury's and put my new (not as soft) ODI's. They look good, but they are definitely NOT as soft as the Oury's. Oh well, the bling factor is a step up though. ???

and some parts to paint(headlight brackets, heel guards, overflow tank...and maybe a few other parts too)
planning on extending the stock swing arm, and widening the a-arms up front.
have pro armor nerfs in transit.
Finally installed my OMI greasable mount. It is very nice and easy to install. The only thing that I noticed was the factory mount had metal sleves for the bolt hole and the OMI did not. Oh well, the feel is much smoother and cant wait to try it out on the trails when I get the motor back together. :thumbs:

i used my factory sleeves to mounts mine. the holes in mine where big enough to put the sleeves in and then bolt it up like that. i think...it's been awhile since i mounted mine. i'm pretty sure that's what i did. ???

Rode mine and watched the kido ride his as he is getting better at power braking it in the mud. :thumbs:

Shattered the rear sprocket. Lucky I have a stock steel one sitting in the "old parts bin" so im back up and running. But seriously....shattered
Did you catch a rock between the sprocket and the chain?
changed the oil. cleaned it all up. Put my paddles on. getting ready for sand mountain. :clap: :clap: :clap:

No, it split into 4 equal pieces around the larger holes in between the bolts that hold it on. It literally just...shattered. And the chain is fine, the teeth all look in good shape and the sprocket isnt that old. The tension checks out, ive checked the tension everyday since the new chain and it was perfect.
dang, that sucks, good thing you had the oem backup! :thumbs:
installed trail tech scmr16 hid lights. i didnt realize how big they were, i like em alot, they look and work awesome!
installed pro-armor nerfs, yeah... didnt realize how much comfort these add to a quad, VERY NICE!

True, Renthal told me if there is any sign of the bolts becoming "loose" while riding they wont warranty the item. Only one hole looks slightly oval, ten bucks they tell me it was my fault. Any takers? I think the aluminum with the large spaces was too weak for the beating my quad goes through. But the old one is in and ready to be beaten!
going to go out and ride it finally!!! woman's gone, time to tear it up! :clap:
riding the hell out of it in Oregon. :clap:
Lucky bastards...Farthest I can ride it is out of my backyard...Half the damn state is underwater now.
Put on the paddles and rode in Genoa, Nebraska..aka "headworks". Great place to ride. Sand, and water riding. Fun stuff.
Crashed the new raptor today as well. Wheelied over a hill..errr...I mean cliff :lol: Didn't realize the hill had no back end, jumped 7ft straight down. Quad came out from underneath me and rolled over on it's side. Up against a drainage pipe. It is really broken in now.
Rode Land Between the Lakes in TN and got wrecked. Handlebars and grab bar are toast. Then went to race today and found my rear subframe is split right under the gas tank. If I find a welder im going riding Monday to break more stuff! :clap: :clap: :clap:
So far I swapped out the radiator hoses for some cv4's. Threw on the lonstar swinger. Swapped out one side of the arms and shock. New Motowoz and Housers... hells yeah. Changed out the front brakelines.
Would you quit playin lazy butt and get that thing back togehter GUNZ :rofl:!!!!!!

Im still waiting on stupid stuff from other members. Literally nuts and bolts, axle, carrier, hubs, did I mention nuts and bolts.
Welded my rear subframe, found several more cracks. Then welded repairs to the forward subframe and replaced all the front bumper guard mounting brackets from two years ago. Shes coming back around. Anyone know any tips for welding aluminum? The rear subframe wasnt sticking well no matter what we tried.

Im not sure where royal blue is, but LBL ( Land Between the Lakes) is where ive been riding for years. And the trails go on for miles, some are just for jeeps and some allow you ride the lake shore for miles when the water level isnt so high. (its very high right now) You can kill a tank of gas just getting lost in the area. But the main trails are so flat and kept from years and years of people riding that I was high 3rd and 4th all over......until I wrecked :lol: :lol: But its almost like high speed MX in the woods on the main trails, just watch out for oncoming jeeps, high 3rd doesnt bode well with a 2007 Wrangler front end.
I think after my next trip ill open up a section on riding areas around me with pictures and video links to give people an idea of what they can expect if they come to my area.

what kind of welder are you trying to use? TIG or MIG? if you don't have a TIG welder i would take it to a shop to get it fixed. but if you have a TIG heres some tips.
get a good cleaner. either
clear PVC cleaner, some kind of
non-residue contact cleaner, or acetone (which works really well). and get a small stainless steel wire brush.
clean all the visable dirt off the area to be welded. then take the cleaner and wipe the area down with it. then take your TIG welder and run weak AC arcs aross the area. remember here your not trying to make a puddle to weld on yet. just light arcs to draw up as much contaminants from the weld area. cast aluminum is full of contaminants. after you run the arcs on it. take your wire brush and clean it up again. then repeat this process a few times. now when you start welding take your time. because again, it's cast aluminum. wait for a good puddle to form then start adding your filler rod. now you don't want to rush because if you are rushing you run the risk of over heating the peice and then it will just break again anyway. if it's done right anybody can weld cast aluminum like any other aluminum. it just has to be very clean.
i hope this helps alittle.
i'm not sure where you live but if you were anywhere near me i could do it for you.

Clarksville, TN, my Dad spoke to me on the subject and since I was using MIG he said the best thing to do was preheat the surface after, as you said, cleaning it with a solvent like acetone which evaporates quickly. If the subframe cracks again ill have to dive deeper into it. But I also broke off the lower mount for the chain guard on the motor, so thats my next challenge! :(

yeah your not to close to me. i would say if it does break again just take it to a weld shop. sorry i couldn't be of more help. i can aluminum MIG weld but for that job i would much prefer having it TIG welded.
Double checked the engine bolts and the A arm bolts. All good. Installed the oil lines. Put the bumper back on. Dicked around with the swingarm.
Installed my Dynatek programmable ignition and it didnt blow up!! :clap: :clap:
loaded it up for sand mountain. I can't wait. :clap: :clap: :clap: 3 more days :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I don't really care for the little lights. I like the stockers. But after febders are cut, stockers look lame.
I adjusted the cover on the raptor earlier...Does that count? :jerkoff:
Put the tank on. Adjusted the front arms a little bit. Installed the LED's. Got the PCIII put back on.
Saturday, rode around for a bit. my left side barkers pipe exhaust spring must have had to much.. I was racin around in the woods and all of a sudden it was super loud. looked down, spring no where to be found. time to pick up a new one....
also adjusted my shocks a bit up front, haven't really played with them to much, got them super nice!
Everyone's ride sure is coming along nicely! But I never thought I would see Aaron cut his fenders. But it does look good. 8)
Here's the completed pics! Took her out this weekend and it is unbelievable the difference between suspensions and setups. I've never owned an after market suspension. I love the rappy. Hope you guys like it.

Forgive me for forgeting, is yours stock bore?

I have a stock bore, I figured I'd stroke it first. Then later on when I need more power, I can go 105 or 108. As far as the sound, it sounded exactly the same to me. I bet if I would have changed the jug to a 105 or 108 it would have made it a little deeper sounding. I think Im at a 720 with the current build. If I make it out to SL I'll let you ride it.

Put on the new RAD carrier and Lonestar Axcalibar axle. Got the front and back brakes bled. Eyeballed in the front alignment. Put on the new shoes, GNCC all the way around 21/22's. Relocated the parking brake. Dude, its been 2 months since this baby has sat on the ground. Anyhow the Motowoz are about an inch lower in the front so when I sent my rear shock off to Josh at Wiigstyle, I had him set up my shock to lower the rear 1 inch. By appearance alone I think my bike is sitting more like 2 inches lower then it used to. ??? I'm not complaining just thought that it was kinda weird.
Still have more stuff to do. I can't believe how long it's taking to put my bike back together. It only took me about 4 hours to strip it down, but I'm sure I have about 20 hours so far putting it back together.
Almost done.... :clap:

Bought a rear lowering link earlier today and installed it. Dropped the ass about 2 inches. Swapped the GNCC's for the paddles. I can't believe how wide it is.... I've always been against widening it. We'll see tomorrow how she feels.

Is it just me or you have the back wheels wider then the front? that's a no no in quad behaviour! ;)
And did you tryed to flip the link in back suspension to lower it? Or you don't like that mod?

Found out im running "energy conserving" oil that i guess makes the clutch slip :mad: :mad: Rode for a bit checking the clutch. so far so good. Changing oil soon.
Installed DMC force 4's, Trinity intake, and PC-5. Pluged the throttle position sensor into the wrong port, but one e-mail to Steve at Tech Quad Shop and the problem was solved. It's hard to get a good idea of what duals sound like over computor speakers. These are the first set I have heard in person. WOW!!! These things sound Totally freakin Awsome. :clap: :clap: :clap: THANKS AGAIN TO STEVE @ TQS!!!
installed my Dr D, and relocated the key... whats next?!

What are you going with?
I've had a +2 SLC in my garage for about 6 months. :lol: Didn't want to swap it in the winter. finally stepped it up. I forgot I would need a new chain though :( so I got put on hold. Will be done this coming weekend. 8)

Went and got some yamalube 20w-50. Wishing when i got hom my stuff would be here :mad:

Removed all stickers off of my bike and nerfs, put my wifes all black seat on my bike, and mine on hers. Wow what a difference i will get some pics up tomorrow :thumbs:
looking up Upholsterers to bring my seat to. 8)

Got the new seat installed...maybe randy can post the pics since my phone had a bad day. Then I got the new slc swing arm on. Tomorrow I'll adjust the chain, change the oil, grease and put the paddles on.
I'll post it up tomorrow. :thumbs:

She was $489 without the brake line or rear chain guide. Or longer chain for that matter. Went through ATV Galaxy and they set me up with a +4. I also asked for it WITH the skid plate mounts on the bottom to protect it, because you can get with or without. 2 weeks and some change, built just for me :clap:
Now if I had a motor to bolt it to.......
Installed my +5 stroker crank!

Every one of the frames was cracked, then the repair welds failed the day 4th gear broke. I want a new frame for my winter build. All the frames are rewelded now, good to go. Just need the motor thing -o-mo-bob
Installed the HID's and found a good ballast mounting place! Link to come soon! Also installed my triple rate Elka piggy backs!
Ripped up a mountain range :nod:
installed my ballsats for my HID's
hopefully they work... took my rear brake off and realized that i need new pads BADLY!!!! thinking that i am going to get a new cross drilled or wave rotor to help it last longer... the solid one doesnt hold up in sand riding too well...
My 06 had the solid rotor so I ordered a cross drilled 07 rotor from RMATV for $40 :thumbs:
Got the paddles pulled off finally.. Ran like crap.. I don't know if I hit a bad batch of gas from the gas station or what. I'm gonna drain the tank and put new stuff in. and swap out the plug :(
Is there an outbreak of bad fuel in the midwest??? Both you and Erich had issues!!!
Not sure if his has ran since SL.. That's the last time I filled her up :(
maybe Peelz got his revenge on you two for roosting him, he added a little extra "spunk" to your fuel :jerkoff:

Michael
I changed my oil and filter and burned my knuckle on the header.
I stared at my cylinder (freshly nikasiled) my KDS head and my newly installed CP piston and wished I had piston rings for a 105mm piston so I could finish this build.
Ordered new tires :nod: fronts are on back order though :(
That's awesome Alkire. To bad you have to wait, you've had a lot of down time!

Sent the hooker home,and started installing the part to the new raptor..
I got to ride it for about 20 mins yesterday, followed my bro and his buddies around on dirtbikes. Have a wedding this weekend (sat) gone sun/mon for our anniversary. And hoping I'll be able to ride labor day weekend. Original plan was to go to an outdoor concert in Sioux Falls South Dakota. but I don't much feel like driving 5 hours. Much rather play on the quad.
Painted my wheels. Looks damn good! Left the outer lip silver.... Pics soon.
did you use the caliper paint?
sanded, then cleaned with magic eraser and alcohol. High temp metal primer....then:
3 solid coats of 96 cent wal mart rattlecan baby!!!!!! boo yah! :lol:

Yup, you can take a PC3 map. Open it in the old PC3 software copy all the values, and then create a new map in the pc5 software and paste the values in. :thumbs:
keep it on the downlow though. 8)
+3 TB....check
TB adapter.......check
tappet covers........check
CP piston.........check
+5 crank........check
cnc head......check

Added the warning tags,adjusted my valves and rubbed down the head with 800 grit paper,like Kenny says to do,ready to be installed.The head is a bo white Track port&polish with a KDS cam installed.Also have a KDS +3 taper TB and a CP 11:1 racers edge piston to be added.

+3 TB and Head together, Spal fan installed and wired, piston rings are still a no show.
Played around w/ my PC3 map on Saturday. Adjusted the TPS via PC3 software.
upon first start I still get a stall. Will start right back up, if I give it a touch of gas it will stay running.
Hoping to call the dyno place this week to schedule my appt. :thumbs: :) ;) :)
Looked at a picture of it. :(

Has a weird kind of whine to it. I can't tell what it is.. Sounds like when a car w/ a pro-charger rolls by and it has that nice whine to it. That's sweet though man. Grats on the newfound power. Let us know how the first ride goes. 8) :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod:
I forgot to install a little washer that goes on the shift lever. This is a picture of it missing.
(http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d162/bit646/IMG_0144-1.jpg)
I have it on there now, lucky I didnt have to pull the clutch to do it. Tomorrow I get fluids, test and send to dyno if all is well. I cant wait!!
The whine was the oil not being soaked up around the drive gears. That was literally the first start so it hadnt gotten the oil all over yet. Thats why you see me lean over for a second. It doesnt whine anymore. And I threw on a 770 program from a guy that just got his tuned for 69 hp so if it works im going to ride this weekend just to check it out then take it to dyno. Thanks for the support Kran!

Nope no issues, just was a pain to get on without pulling the clutch basket. The bigger problem is when the quad still wouldnt shift afterward. I just finished tearing down and completely rebuilding the engine AGAIN. Guess what I found! The shattering of 4th gear wasnt my fault after all! One of the gears on the drive spline ceased, and I was in 4th when it happened. The gear broke because once the tranny ceased it broke the weakest link, which was that particular gear for me. So when I went back in I found the shift drum was mis-aligned with fork "L", the gearshaft had a ceased gear causing the transmission to cease and not run AND I left some small stuff loose here and there on the outside. Yea, im a dumbass, but I got her all back together now! and she starts again! AND.......SHE DRIVES! Full on 1-5 gear test this morning when all my neighbors wake up ( and the JB Weld cures). That 770 is a loud sum bitch! Wish me LUCK!

Bought a set of used Fasst Flexx bars on egay and received them this past week. Cleaned and serviced the pivots, then mounted them up. Also, spent the better part of this afternoon fabbing a set of heat shields for my Monsters (finally). Not sure if I should leave the heat shields brushed or black them out. ???

Scared off a Banshee at the trails. He went by my camp, so I went by his......sideways.........and much faster!
The numbers are in....55HP/52TQ. Im heading to Cookeville,TN (hopefully) and Velociraptor is going to take a look at the tune which runs 12.5:1 until the HP peaks then it bumps to 13:1. AND the guy didnt adjust my Dynatek at ALL, even after I bought the connector. Im really bummed. Hopefully we can pull some more from this build
Removed my busted stock heel guards and adjusted my ride height. Rear spring sucked because of the aluminum spanner nuts. Cleaned it up then helped my mom move. Is it bad that I wanted to tell my mom I was sick so I could go ride LOL

ya, just found on there website that its says use for stock pistons, just wasn't sure if they shortened the rod, required different pin height pistons, hmm, getting more and mroe tempting. Can't make the decision between, that, wheels (which I really need) or a swinger.
