Ahhh, you got me there Caper. Man, I wish I was a little more quick on my
toes. Good point Caper, okay now I can use a little of that to my leverage.
"Honey, wouldn't my 26" with aluminum rims look better on yours? Okay I
will get those 27" Mudlites for mine then" ahaha, LOL, ya think it would
work?

I like the past few posts about getting it for the better half of ya. I'll have to remember those.

 

Those were pretty good. lol

 

Yea, momma was complaining about the stiffness of her Stock "489" on her X2.

I was thinking why not let her "Try out" my "PXT" radials off of my 800.
They have "Deluxe" rims. Then I would have to find something "Serviceable" to replace mine, of course always looking to "Trade-up"

Not too much option for Mud holes out here. I could upgrade to something that would do well in all around but still decent for snow and Ice with the occasional muddy surface here on the farm.

Not a bad clip. Yea I think Caper gets the 4 golden starts again! Always think the Mrs' is in
for the deal when clevearly its all yours. LOL. Just one question Caper, is that how you got
your ATV by convincing her to buy the two? LOL..LOL

I got the man across the street to take her for a ride down our private road.............through some puddles...........in the Spring of the year...............And I though to myself...HUMMMM.......If she likes snowmobiling.....She will love this...................So I waited a few days..........And you guess it.......

Then she said we should get a couple used ATV's to ride on the trails ,Snowmobiling is gettin way to costly !!

So then I jumped into the car and went shopping,pricing,finding out info ,like found this forum(still stuck here)........then after two months of homework bought the two 450's........So really it was her idea................I was happy with snowmobiling.....LOL....LOL..........Caper........ .....

 

Yea, but now you have at least two power sport hobbies!

In regards to the thumb assist for your throttle I used a piece of garden hose and a metal clamp..it works fine.It saves you about $20 plus tax....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

If your forearm is still in good shape and you can keep your wrist locked in aposition a twist is the way to go. Especially witha slow draw rate (have to turn it further to get from closed to WOT) they can become very controlable. Avoid having a 1/4 turn or less. The ETC could be a pain to over come.

Another trick is to pickup RTV sealant in the cocking gun bottle and fill the handle bars with the stuff. Will drastically reduce the vibrations in the controls.
