Default My buddies Brute blew up again!

I posted on here how my buddy's Brute Force blew up and had to be re-built at a cost of $2100 to him. no warranty. well, this weekend we went riding and at one point we noticed that the pipe was red hot, smelled like crap and we though it was going to catch fire. shut it off and after it cooled it wouldnt start again, had to winch it onto the trailer. ????? I know the pipes on them glow a little bit when new, but this was bright red like if you were trying to heat metal to bend it.

There must be a crack in the boot going from the EFI to the engine or something. It sounds like it is running real lean and then burning up the engine. I would definately see about getting my money back for the rebuild and then getting it fixed for free. Probably only half that will happen tho.

Brute's aren't EFI. the first time it blew up it was "mud in the motor" lol.

Hey man, after that fiasco at Haspin last weekend I am really wanting some other place to ride, when are you going up to Happy Hollow again? I still need to get directions from Loveland but the only time that guy is there is on the weekend. I'd love to start going there, especially since the road I take to Haspin is closed (52) and I had to go like an hour out of the way to get home.

I was at Bristol this weekend, but I was there last weekend as well. You definately had to watch where you were going it was a mess I managed to be the only one in our group not to completely thrash everything they brought and actually brought something back other than an empty trailer. I used a litttle sense riding the brute and didn't have any problems other than running out of money pressure washing it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Only thing I have had to do is replace a nut on the exhaust that fell off however I'm still aprehnsive to sink it to the racks like the eiger.

this guy rides it like it's a test vehicle and its his job to tear it up lol. I'm learning what they can and can't do by watching him. You can never tell what color his is, he aint afraid to sink it, does all kinds of other damage by hitting trees and what-not, and then has to take it back to the dealer after every trip.

well, they didnt get our track done so we couldnt have our race, had several hundred people show up for that and we had to call it. they make you stop riding at 9PM now, it isnt even dark. If you go riding anyway, they let the cops come in there and patrol and pull people over to harass them. get pulled over by the cops inside Haspin??? WTF? then you got Pete lying and telling people the cops arent allowed in there, when we all saw them. I'm going to snap a few pictures next time and post them lol. and the place was so rutted you needed a kidney belt to ride. same old sh-- different day.
