Does anyone have ides on what the best power up grades for the money on my ds650. I have K&N, 11.1 piston and 15t sprocket with a end cap but drag racing 450's and 700's are killing Me.

 

Loose as much weight off the quad as safely possible. 10 pounds = 1 HP. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

For the money, a bigger carb can't be beat. TM45's pop up on ebay all the time and are fairly cheap. I think within the last few weeks there have been a few lectrons on ebay to. A CDI would probably go a long ways to helping also.

 

Yep, bigger carb, 520 Chain conversion, lightweight wheels and tires, CDI. Lose the air box, and jet accordingly...... We could go on

 

Pull the Rotax and replace it with a streetbike conversion[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Or you could buy urself a ds450 :-)

Not for drag racing... Maybe if he was asking about MX

 

Ron Woods racing makes kits for the DS to make it insanly fast. But i have found just adding a big gun exhaust and jetting it nothing cames close. The only thing close was a yfz 450 that was stripped down and had an exhaust and couple other mods

 

on my 04 ds 650 completly stock w/ octane booster, strapped fron suspension, and the fiberglass padding taken out i ran 9.7's in the 1/8th mile and beat a modded yfz450

 

It will run even better without the higher octane. A stock piston DS runs best on plain jane 87 octane....
