My buddy is taking delivery of a new 800 on monday. Anyone know of things to lookout for on this new machine? I am lookig forward to seeing it so I can figure out how some people are useing the 800 exhuast on a 700. How much faster-or actually how much better does the 800 pull of the line than a well tuned 700 carb ?

 

well you have a clutch, so its not going to be as bad as it is stock, but your still gonna get beat, and beat hard

 

When He gets it have a race and post the results. I don't think hes going to blow you away but he will have more take off due to the different clutch he has.

 

the different header will also give him more on middle and top end

 

I think an 05 carb or an EFI 700 would do better due to the Team clutching.
Let us know.

You better put on your stock tires if you want a chance in hell.

Your done, don't even compare it. I've driven a 700 Carb and a 800 EFI, and I can tell you from seat time, not that much, but the 800 was like nothing I've ridden, gas it hard a 40mph, and the rear starts spinning hard, its unreal.
Put it this way, my friend with his clutched and K$N airfilter, can just get ahead of my buddy's grizzly, the 800 blows it away.

I want one real bad but have to wait for financial reasons.

 

Mine SMOKES 2 "Grizles" I know the owners of, so I guess the 800 is my only concern---also buddy weighs about 70lb more than me.Will post rusults, as we will be up in Pembine - Marinette CTy trails Labor Day wkend
