After rolling my rubicon last weekend it now does 63+MPH with no problem... this has been checked with my Garmen GPS III+ and also i can now hang with my friends Parie 650 that used to smoke me!! Only problem is every time i hit 60+ it error's out the computer and flashes the gear range icon's and sticks the quad in high gear. If I turn it off and re-start it it seems to re-set like new again. Just list you E-Mail address in a reply and i will forward you two videos, one of the speed and one of the cpu error. These Videos are 1MB each so download on 56k will take a few minutes so hang tight!
Also, the engine was at some rather un-cool RPM as it sounded like a indy car.

Please send me a copy of the video at mtrott@cyberbeach.net


How did rolling it make it any faster? I can hit that speed and make the dash flash but only down a huge hill with a strong wind pushing me.

Thanks

Mark

Stories like that dont inspire me to run out and buy a honda. But i am curious.

So it rolled and after you got it fired back up it ran faster then before?

On my Rubicon when ever it is working, If you get stuck in some sand and just give it all the throttle the speedo will read up to 70 then it will start that flashing stuff then you have to turn it off.

Oh man, figured you had to press the icon to get it. Thought posting EMail wasn't allowed. "F" for effort [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
