Mahnster - I like the Dominators, they are a good all around tire.

Sam250 - I ride it hard at our local National Forest, when it gets home, usually can't see a Green or Orange part on it. Just always clean it up real well after riding it. The powdercoat holds up real well.

Stock 1987 Tecate 4 had 43 horses. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

v force makes near that at the crank. The belt drive robs a lot of that power.

If it has 50HP the V-force must be a very inefficient machine.

A V-force makes about 45hp at the crank, after the belt drive, and the shaft, its lucky to lay down 38-40 to the wheels.

it has 50 at the crank and only puts down 35 to 37 at the wheels. the auto sucks a lot of power.

They were as reliable as any 250 of the day, however they did not recieve the aftermarket support that the LTs and Rs were blessed with, also, thier dimensions were not as favorable as the Honda or Suzukis. I did ride a few of them back in the day, and they are super strong quads. Its debatable weather it is the 2nd fastest quad ever produced, only behind the Zilla, but some Banshee owners will tell you different.
