Todd your Scrambler looks good. What kind of wheels and tires are those? Also, did you get the HPD Trail Pipe?

The pipe is the trail pipe series, My wheels are Douglas black labels and the tires are GBC dirt devils. BTW thanks for the compliment[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I agree, Awesome looking wheeler, some questions though.

Doesn't that seat cover get hot in the summer time?
How do you like those dirt devils, I'm thinking of getting some.
What size are your tires and wheels, and where did you get them?
How functional are your handguards, are they worth the money?
Last, how did you get that machine so clean.

Sweet machine, hope soon mine'll look like that!

Alright,
I went to my local auto parts store and asked the for a tach for a singal cylinder motor. They had a mini tach that they would sell me, except, the guy told me it wouldn't work! He said that it is calibrated for a 4 cylinder motor and will not give me the right reading for an ATV. Im assuming that it will read a higher RPM then it is supposed to right?
ELROY,
What is the model of your tach?? If you can tell me I will go to the store and order that tach. Is it a mini tach??
Ronnnnn,
What model is the HPD tach and where can I get it??
Please respond guys, I really want a tach!!!

Thanks Adam, In the summer the cover usually stays wet or muddy so it doesnt matter to much, As far as the hand gaurds Iwouldnt ride with out them, If you've ever had your hand slapped by a branch or had one catch the brake lever they are definetnly worth $30,The rims ive had for some time from recreation tire out of Dirtwheels for $160, they are stock size all around, The tires are stock to I got them from www.tiresunlimited.com for $172. As far a cleaning im just a fanatic about my vehicles, You should see my Z71 and my 65 Pony[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Elroy,
What wires do you have your tach hooked up to? I just got mine and the needle does not move. The backlight does work though. PLEASE Help!

Kawi250,

I don't know which wire you need to hook to. I need a schemactic of the electrical wiring to figure that out. Being that I am a Polaris/Yamaha dealer, I don't have all the inside info on the the other brand bikes. I did make a call to another dealer who does be he was not able to give me the answers I needed to know to even know if an automotive tach will even be able to work on your machine. I have to go over to this dealership to look at that service manual for myself. I should be able to figure it out once I get a hold of that service manual. Without a service manual for your machine, I am almost useless for info about the wiring on your machine.

I'll try to get over to this other dealership to take a look at the service manual. It won't be until later on today.
