Default My first new Atv --650 praire questions

I have a few questions reguarding my new toy

1) What are some good mods to do after break in?
2) How would 26" tires on the origional rims effect the top speed (MS 589's)
3) What are some maintenence issues with the 650?
4) How high can you jump without bottoming or breaking the quad?
5) How fast will it go after break in? so far 60 mph with low tire pressure
6) What pressure should I run the stock tires (6lbs) ?

Thanks for any info for this newbie on the forumb!!!

1. Black spring, diamond G snorkle, twin air filter, stock exhaust modification.
2. You loose some top speed, but having the right tread for your trails is more imortant. Stock tires suck.
3. The belt needs to be tightened to the lower end of the adjustment spec in order to last longer. Black spring adds to belt longevity. Keep it in low range as much as you can to reduce belt wear. If you ignore the belt, it may only get 500 miles.
4. ? Depends. I dunno.
5. I've been 64, and 68 downhill. With bigger tires, you need to calculate the actual speed. I don't go over 62 with 26" tires.
6. 5psi, but your preference for more or less.

Congrats on your first post.
