dang... how deep is the water are you going threw...are u going threw a pond or something.....u should test it in a (in ground pool)...lol.. this sounds like a great way to keep every thing drie

 

We don't have enough ground clearance for serious mud or anything, so I'm not going to do water wheelies or anything, I just want to be able to hit 3-4" deep puddles without worry, plus it looks cool as hell!!! If I can find some 2-3 feet deep water holes, I might give that a try though.

When it's finished and ready to test in the water, I'm going to take it to a boat ramp near my house and back it down into the water slowly while the engine is running and see if I can get the engine and everything in the rear submerged. I think that it shouldn't be a problem as long as I keep the handlebars/snorkle out of the water. I'm pretty excited about it.

I painted it bright yellow today with some PVC spray paint and it is going to look sick when it dries. It will be tomorrow before I can mount it and take pictures.



I built a new snorkle with 1-1/2" ABS, and it is still running WAY WAY too rich. I'm sure I would have to jet down 1-2 sizes to get it running right, so I'm thinking the snorkle is a bad idea. I don't want to loose that power.

The only other option to try, would be to build a tiny airbox around the filter and run the snorkle into that. Maybe then it could pull air through the filter better, as this is how most quads (already have airboxes) do it.

Anyone have any ideas?
