just wondering

 

whats the post named?

 

yep i found it just before u said that on the second page. how is it holding up and how is it as an overall quad

 

Its getting much stronger as it breaks in. Found a small straight stretch on Sunday and ran side-by-side with a piped Banshee from approx. 10-50 mph. When a good set of duals comes out and the clutching is set up to match, its going to take something really strong to take one.

 

Like a Beast!! The acceleration is unreal. I just passed the break-in period and ran it against my buddies Raptor. His Raptor is jetted and piped (yoshimura) but it didn't help him. In 150yd sprints, in coal dust, I was beating him by 2 bike lengths. When he would get more aggessive with his clutch to try to close the gap, he couldn't keep the front end down. I have ridden his bike and in my oppinion, the V-force handles better too. I will say that some throttle control is needed when comeing out of corners, if the traction is good. It has so much torque that the front end will come up unintentionaly.
Causing in immediate loss of steering and increase in heart rate. With some finesse and throttle disgression it corners very well.

We had 2 of the new 700's at Little Sahara this weekend. A green one and a orange one. I guess the weight of the quads were being a big disadvantage on the sand. The guys made several runs during the day and they werent holding their own against much. You cant blame too much on the rider as there isnt much more than pushing the throttle. I didnt even see them having wheelie problems. I'm not downing them, but me (195 lbs) on my wife's 250 quadracer was driving around them about 200 feet out pretty hard. I know sand robs my heavy Polaris quite a bit, so surely the weight would be a big sand issue. Just my observation and .02 for whatever it's worth, maybe nothing. Bubba

 

Shane, that's gonna be about right. The polaris's do the same thing. They accelerate pretty good until the clutches get about 75% shifted out, then it slows down until full shift out. Maybe that exhaust and some other things will wake them up more.

 

can't wait to see one really run. we saw one in glamis, but i think he was still breaking it in. also he didn't have paddles on it.

 

Still breaking it in, but I did race stock banshee on the (flat) beach and I will let you know how far I beat him by when he catches up.
