Have you seen the new ATV Sport mag? Well, if not, there is a little write up on one of the pages about an 800cc Prairie that FST did. Really cool!! He was able to sqeeze the motor to 800cc w/o stroking, only boring!!!! It stated that that 800 Prairie pulled 30 yards on the entire Utility MODIFIED class up a ski slope. The machine apparently kept very cool, too, since the motor is setup for this kind of overbore job and not even get into the water jackets. Check it out. It's a very small write up in their "What's Up" section on page 14. Anyway, I would love to see a post where one of you boys with a little extra cash did this to your machine. You maybe OUTRUNNING piped and jetted Raptors! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I remember the article thinking it was cool. I think we will see lots of motor mods like this for people who will be racing them. But for many of us, boring it out to an 800 just to haul a hay bail around may not be too practical. (=

Just think of how much quicker you could get the chores done on the farm with the extra speed[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

what's FST's website if they have one or information to reach them. Might consider doing that to the 650
