Hi,
I have a AC500 automatic and wish the engine would be less noisy. It is too much for me. Like other quads I'm sure. But is there any way to muffle this more? I would LOVE to.

What kind of engine noise are you getting? I haven't noticed anything unusual sounding on my machine.

I should have been more clear, sorry. I meant how can I get a quieter engine? There is nothing wrong with it it's just loud. But I'd like it silent. If I could I'd want it sound like a car.
Any tips?

Start riding in rack deep water. You won't beable to hear a thing.

This is a joke, but trust me, it does work.

You can't ride the auto in rack deep water. I have one and I know you can't unless it's snorkled. the transmission vent would be under water and then, well you know the rest......

Ah I forgot about that. My Freind has a snorkeled 300 and when his goes under you can't hear it at all. I thought it had drowned untill it came up and I could hear the engine screaming.

The only noise I hear while submerged, is my exhaust gurgling!! Rode 72 miles yesterday, one of the locations we came across was "deep" but we made it.
P.S. Headlights look pretty cool under water also!
