Default Reverse Rev Limiter (Z400)

I am wondering if there is any way to get ride of the rev limiter in reverse. Its kinda annoying sometimes. I have a BIG GUN CDI but I dont know much about it because i bought the quad used just about 3 weeks ago. Is there any way to program the CDI to stop the rev limiter for reverse or raise the rev limit?

LT-Z400 reverse rev limiter disabler.
You can do this which will have all indicator lights working and the rev limiter set to 9000 for all gears and neutral, just like the factory setup.
All changes will be made to the CDI connector.
The pins on the connectors come out easy. Just unplug it from the CDI unit and as you look into the connector with the lock on the top, take a small screw driver and slide it in just above the pin you want to remove then pull on the wire.
1)Disconnect the black wire with the red trace and the blue wire with the black trace and put a piece of shrink tubing over each one of them and put a dab of silicone in the hole the wires came out of.
2)Pull out the black wire with the brown trace and the black wire with the white trace. Keep track of the hole they came out of. Make a small jumper wire (approx. 28 ga.) about 2" long, slide it under the rubber seal on the black/brown wire connector pin and solder it to the pin. Do the same with the other end of the jumper and solder to the black/white wire connector pin. Now put these two pins back in there respective holes. Put a dab of silicone between the jumper wire and the wire it is next to.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Hmm... sounds a little more complicated than I thought... Is this process the same with an aftermarket rev limiter? Is there any way to program the rev limiter to just eliminate the reverse rev limiter or not? And what is the rev limiter set at stock? 9000 according to that post right?

Thanks for that info tho. I might try that... sometime.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Yes the stock limiter is 9000. I did this mod and it works great. Now with my Dyna CDI my rev limiter is 10500rpm's foreward or reverse.

So thats the only way to raise your rev limiter for reverse? With that mod... hmm... I'll have to do it sometime...
