Sandgod,

I'm with you on this one. All quads have a FEEL to them. If you say your Z is better at dunes, Hell I'll believe you, Ive ridden with you and know your damn good. Will I trade by Dale in cause of it. Nope.

Loking forward to a ride Labor Day. I'll plan on your neck of the woods this time.

sandgod, has you dale ever puked oil out the air box while riding the dunes? Mine did this last weekend at walden, freaked me out. SOme guys are saying run 1/3 of the oil in your dale, do you do this? Just curious since you ride the dunes alot and I had so much fun I want to do it again but dont want to see oil comming out of my quad like that again.
thanks

 

Not yet Trout. Mine is number 1225. I won't trade my Dale in either. I feel priviledged to have a brother that buys quads like Cokes at 7-11. It's nice to compare all the different quads we've owned. All are unique in their own way. I love having Raptor like power and 250r handling and Cannondale suspension.....

 

Trout,
Do you run synthetic oil in your dale? 20w-50? After Red Bud Ive never had it happen again. I usually run half. Your dale only did it because you ran it hard and there was too much oil in the engine so it had to get rid of it. Its when the oil gets hot and expands. Synthetic doesnt expand as much as regular.its normal, If you need more reassurance call Kyle as R&s and tell him Greg sent ya. He knows me I'm always buying stuff from them.

 

yea I run synthetic, 20w 50, I called Kyle and he said he has seen it but that its not good, I also called my dealer and he said not good I need a new engine, im still under waranty and they are willing to work with me so Ill keep ya posted.
thanks for the help
