with the hauck clutch work, does it make the wolverine quicker? will it bring the front end up or do you have to do both the epi kit and the hauck machine work? do you lose any bottom end?

I can lift the front with my big *** on it no problem. It wont do a wheel stand from a dead stop just by hitting the throttle, but if you lean back, pull up and mash the go lever, it will come up easy enough. I cant say if its any quicker on the bottom end because of the hauck clutch, because I never rode it with just the pipe, jets and filter...but top end its much much faster.

with the epi clutch kit by itself it does have a lot more bottom end power, you still cannot just hit the throttle and go up on the back, but if you pull up on the bars it comes up pretty easily, but you lose about 3-4 mph top end speed, which is the main reason I put on the pipe, filter and jet kit.

Does the same theory apply to a Kodiak 450? "Cause now that I've "Sky Jacked" her and widened her up a bit I'd like it not to just be "All show, No go" if you know what I mean, eh?!

On the top end mine'll touch 96 Kms. Which is on pavement down hill and then my reverse light started flashing. Not sure how many Mph that is.

96kph should be about 54-56 mph

Anyone ever hear of the reverse light flashing at high speeds?

the reverse light is a warning indicator, usually reserved to keep you from tearing things up by having too high of rpms or trying to shift at too high of an rpm,
Its the OH S()!T light. you see it and slow down.

Right on... it only happened to me once and I'll tell ya I think pushin' 100 Kms on a utility quad is more than fast enough!
