spruceduece ,,know any proven heelclicker setup for the 500H.O I have the suggested setup of just 1.2 in the shoulder and nothing else , at first just riding around the field this seemed to be the ticket ,but now that i got to open it up it takes off quicker but then seems to lag,,then starts to catch backup to the engine?? I know this prbably makes no sense ,but I thought you had discussed a similar problem when you were doing your 700

My mount is made from PVC conduit and PVC rain gutter. The only metal on it is the stainless hose clamp.

I can make one for a rhino if you send me a rhino so I can mold the holder to it.

It's nice to see some one that is honest!! Not saying my quad is better or anyting like that... just saying it isn't no banshee or v force or raptor or predator or etc. etc. It is what it is and it can do what it can do nothing more.


By the way did i mention i had my prairie 650 doing 75.6 on on a paved road, yes that's with my g.p.s ........................ ok ok it was on a trailer satisified? LOL[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I have two polaris Sportsman 700s

Me and my friend often drag race them and when I first got them the races were pretty close but now the second one always wins. We took a modded rincon out with the second one and drove side by side and looking at the rincon's digital speedometer it was going 71 mph. The other one barely makles 62. They bother were purchased the same day. And they were only made a month apart. Absolutely no difference. they bothe have the same hours and miles give or take about 10 hours, 30 miles. And we dis this after we changed oil and filled the tank... I just dont get it.

Does it matter who is riding the SP700?

Do you both weigh about the same?

Well when I dirve it it goes a little slower... but we tested both the 4 wheelers with him on them. So trust me everything was the same. The only variable was the 4 wheeler.

This weekend I was up in Lewis County NY and had a long stretch of blacktop to run on. I got 67 with the GPS but it took a long time. I dropped my tip weight from 5.5 grams to 0 and lost 4 tenths, but picked up a lot of accelleration.
