Here is a link to 700v.com. This guy has all kinds of performance "how to's" complete with pics. The V is actually one of the easiest quads to work on/mod. Good luck.

One other thing that I should have mentioned. Having a cvt doesn't automatically mean you will get a rock solid flat shift out rpm. The stock shift out on my V-Force was not "flat". It is somewhat load dependant so rider weight must have some effect if you weigh 150lbs or 250lbs. With the stock weights I had 700-800 rpm creep in my stock shift out from 20mph to 60 mph. The whole idea of the cvt is when you pin it, it should go to peak hp rpm and stay there until it runs out of gear. 7k with a full shift out is about 60 mph(give or take) on stock tires.

That was the point that I was getting at in my earlier post when I said "BY" 40 I was turning almost 8k. With the stock weights I was never able to get it to stop creeping and give me a solid shift out rpm. With the aftermarket weights I'm at 7k from 20 to just under 60 mph. That spot where the pull just goes away around 35 or 40 mph with the stock set up is gone now.

Tuning your clutch is well worth the time and effort. Even the best pipe is worthless if you aren't turning the right rpm to make power. Hope this helps

 

aright thanx for all the advice i think i am going to do the clutch mod

 

I heard that the front A arms are preaty weak alot of guys get reinforced one's for it.

 

The A-Arms are everything but week. In fact, they are over built. It's the tierods that people say are week.

 

i havent had any problems with tierods yet but ive only done a few big jumps i dont plan on taking a 500 pound machine of any huge jumps anyway , but i was suprised to see it handles pretty good over big jumps and on the track thanx for the help

 

oh my bad, tie rods sorry.

 

From what I've seen, the tie-rods are big-time weak. My buddy clipped a tree on his, wasn't even going that fast and it bent it into a U-shape.
