It says:
This ATV may exceed the performance of ATV's you have ridden previously. It accelerates extremely fast and reaches high speeds. This high performance demands respect and experience. Ride this ATV at small throttle openings and low speeds until you learn it's performance and handling characteristics.
Or in other words, if you have only ridden Honda's before, go load up on the toilet paper!!

I traded my 400EX for the Speed, should I go back to the dealer and ask for the free toilet paper? Even during the break-in ride it was alot more bike than my 400EX. 400EX was dyno tuned at Trinity 28.2 HP wow, New Speed 33+HP WOW.
I called Cannondale and asked about the re-map and the exhaust. On the Blaze they said it was a HMF and the MOTO a Titanium Headpipe and silencer. The Tech said to re-map with the Blaze for all around and get the pipe. Don't use the Moto map as its more spiky.
The closet dealer hadn't even run a re-map yet. I'm thinking of getting the HMF and re-map. HHMMMM, 9HP for $189 that's cheap. Maybe after I actual get to ride it around, we'll see.

I wonder if Cannondale would sell those stickers.... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I must admit, that is by far the coolest warning sticker I have ever heard of. I'll sneak over to YoDaddy's and rob his.

I wonder if the guy that was beating some of the piped bansheees at Gordons Well had done, got the exhaust and the remap. He said it was stock except for the HMF exhaust. I do know it ran strong..
