What is changed when people talk about "the carb mod" on predators? Do they bore it or re-shape the slide or what? Thanks, I'm just curious.

 

they re-work everything, grind the insides do the slide the springs and all the jets

 

Hey everybody.... just wanted to chime in... i just finished the deal on purchasing an 04 Earnhardt Jr. Predator... what fun.... c-ya all on the trails!!

 

Does the carb mod mostly help with low or high rpm power?

 

both

 

i keep hearing these modds are costly, but how much are they? I've been considerring them for a while... Also, about how much of a gain do you see? i know some people have these modds done, or maybe at least have talked to nicholas cycle? thanks a lot!

 

I believe there is a sticky on pred owners that tells you how to do all the mods yourself. I only did the easy one's and that was good enough for me. Others do them all themselves. I believe Nicholas Cycle charges $200 to do it. That includes the jets and labor...

 

i have tried to set up a predatorowners accout 4 times and have even sent messages to their tech support people. I can't ever log in. it always says that my account is not verrified, even though i verrified it. Unless someone else could make me an account (hadn't thought of that before now... PM me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] ) it looks like i'm stuck getting info here only... thanks for that information tho... does anyone have HP figures?

 

heres the description from Nicholas Cycle's website

Custom tuning stk. pred.carb (each set up is done to compliment the customer's engine, pipe, and airbox set up.) Nicholas Racing modifies and adjusts fifteen different areas in the carbeurator.-Includes race mod that increases flow characteristics. Labor and jets included - $200

 

spyder6,
I was checking out your pics & thought, "wow nice quad" Then I was "WOW NICE HOUSE!"

Anyway I know when some drag only for an event or such they will soften up their springs & tie the quad down with rachet straps to stop the wheelies. I'm not joking.
