I'm getting closer to buyig an ATV for my daughter and am considering the AT....but I also need to use it on my annual elk hunt in COlorado. I asked the salesmen abouthow the AT would perform at high altitude and he started talking about the Foreman ES. He implied that I would not be happy with it at high altitude.

Anybody out there take their's up hgih? We camp near Leadville right at timberline.

Thanks,

Slim

 

A lot of salesman don't even ride! This is my solution to the altitude thing-- http://www.thunderproducts.com/tpi_valve.htm

You open it as you ascend, and close it as you descend. And, above 10,000', I just take the airbox lid off completely. Sorry, I have no personal experience with the AT, but my Rancher 350's and Recon do great at altitude with the TPI.

 

RR...........

Thanks for the tip......I might have to try that!

jet accordingly

 

Thanks guys.... loooks like I get it jetted for 4500' - 8500 feet and take the lid off above that. It that don't work I'll do the thunder box thing.
