Anyone out there using or know someone who uses the Cycle Country electric shift setup on their manual Quads? I have a buddy who wants to put this set up on his ATV but we don't know how well it works.

 

I believe there is an Arctic Cat 500 owner that has the Electric shift kit.

 

I have the shift kit and it works well I have had no problems with it other than I was the first to have it installed here and I got to be the test dummy as far as the installation went but other than a few cosmetic things with the install so far so good.

 

I have the shifter,when I first installed it it had a bad computer they sent out a new computer that fixed that, a couple of switches went bad they made good on them, the motor went bad 2 weeks ago they made good on that. I have about 800 mi on it it works real well and would not ride without it again. I am paralized from the waist down from a sled accident 3.5 yrs. ago and depend on it , the guys from cycle country know this and send the parts over night .. over all I think it is a good product and would by it again. If you are worried about water as I was, I park the bike in the water about pipe deep to swim for hours never had a problem with water ... Bill

PS. The rule winch is on the bike also under water and no problems with that either

Hey, just curious if you ran any silicone around your winch due to the water to help seal it better. I don't get into water that deep very often, but have done it a few times and wasn't sure if it was necessary, or just a good idea. Preventative maintenance I guess.

Thanks,

Mike

 

The Rule is a waterproof, no needto add silicone.
