HOLY Brute Force batman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, OldmanWheeler got himself a new Brute and it is allready in my hands! LOL!!! I rode it first about 2 weeks ago and only for about 2 minutes and right away got off! The first thing I said was NO Way,,, not for me!!!! Well, last wekend I brought it home to make some changes for him,,, the first thing I did was to stick a DYNA CDI on it,,, OH MY GAWD,,, this thing went from 3 to 6 inch wheelies to hit the brakes before ya flip it! I was absolutley amazed at the kick the CDI gave this thing. In a drag race I'm 95% sure it will outrun our modded 700 Prairies but I will find that out for sure this Saturday!
The thing I hate tho is the JELLO ride so we cranked the shocks up as tight as they go! Tonight I put a set of MAXXIS All Traks on it and with 6 1/2 psi in the rears and 7 1/2 in the fronts and raced it around my yard. Well, with the tire change also came the instant need to loosen up the shocks which I will do later,,, it handles 100% better but the rear is way too stiff. I hit a bump in my yard that just about sent me over the bars when the rear kicked up. Into the corners it will dive a little now but as I come out of the corners I also found myself in a wheelie with the DYNA cdi on it! I can't wait to get some Dalton clutch stuff in there and a set of ELKAs on it to see just what this thing will do!
This weekend I will be doing some adjustments with the stock shocks to see how it will handle our trails. I will also see how it fares against the Prairies and hopefully I will get my the rear end back in my FST 785 soon to see how the Brute fares against it in a drag,,, I have a feeling with some exhaust mods and a few other mods the Brute just might keep up! The way this thing pulls outta the hole if you can keep the front down is awsum!

Hey sorry about that, I posted on KOD spring change post...don't know how it got here.
Anyway, good to talk to you. I didn't know you had rear end trouble,....please don't tell me the Brute is as fast as your 785.....
