Racerjim,

How about giving us an all around review of your new bike? I'd love to hear about it.

After 2 weeks had some starting problums, ended up being the connector wasn't made right at the coil. Will be setting up the suppention and front end today. Still haven't got riding teck. down pat yet.I'am lucky I own a auto repair shop with 5 good tecks and 4 of us race And we have a good test track behine our shop. This quad has tons of low and mid rang power. Hooks the power up togood!!! Still haven't come up with who going to race it this weekend.
I can tell you after 1st gear you don't have to use the clutch. Power shifting down shifting at any speed or rpm. The tranny is smooth as butter. From 3000 to 9000 has lots of extra power. I don't think a larger sprocket will work because of the large camshaft in this motor. I can see why they have so much compression. They might have a little to much duration. This is a great quad, but seat time is the only to know.
