Went riding today and one of the guys was riding a predator. It overheated and boiled over. None of the other quads did (Z, Banshee, Raptor). Was about 80 degrees and we were ripping through the ditches, so should have had good airflow.

Are the preds jetted really lean from the factory? Im thinking that's the only thing that could make it overheat that easy. There was a little debris over the radiator, but not the whole time.

It also is a BEAR to start and keep running in the winter, which makes me think it is jetted a little too lean stock. Also would be interested in hearing if it takes the same type mikuni jets as the Raptor and Z (main is the small round and pilot is the long Keihin like one) as well as the stock jet sizes.

Thanks for any info!

Even when that predator was running warm, was it fast ?
