First Impressions on Outlander 800.
My brother will be right there beside you in prison. He started pulling the stickers just after unloading it from the truck.>>>>>>>>>
They sure are annoying.....I used a hair dryer to peel them off, some are riveted on <sigh>

I have a HMF pipe and Dobeck fuel contro; on mine, it was worth right at and extra 4 hp to the rear wheels. I beleve The Bomb has the same pipe and box on his. Nice looking rims sure don't hurt anything. Nice thing for guys going from prairies to bombs is that you only need to buy 2 more rims. They have the same bolt patterns just the rear offset of the bomb being IRS needs the same offset as the front rims of the prairies all the way around. Another budy has the same pipe and box and is hooking me up with the ever elusive K&N filter I have been trying to get my hands on since last fall. I will keep you posted as to its HP improvements with the addition of the filter.

Dont think he wants to pipe it because it may double as a hunting quad. But the Dobeck fuel control box may be a good add on for him.

I would not worry about the fuel box if he is not going to make any mods, its just used to control the fuel like, carb quads do with jetting, think of the box like a jet kit. If you add a pipe then you normaly would rejet to get the air fuel mix right or if you make airbox modds it might be worth looking into but for a stock machine the box would not likely do much on its own. to get the air fuel right you would have to set the box to a stock setting making it kind of a wast of money.

Well if thats the case I might be able to make you a heck of deal on my box, it would seem that a friend of mine has figured out how to spray an EFI bomb 800, so there looks to be catch for me though, I will have to change to a differnt type of dobeck fuel control that allows for a Nos function. If it works out the way it looks like it is going to I guess I will be selling my old box, not thet its old, I got it last November. Send me a PM if they are interested.

These things are great for the DIYselfer everything is easy to get at. I had a 99 Prarie before and you needed to plan a day to change a headlight. I changed all the oils, adjusted the valves and checked the belt drive on my 400Outty in 4 hours, including beer breaks.
By the way I think no I'm sure those valves were on a ROTAX engine[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
