Pretty dam fast for a dirtbike!!!

Its not a dirtbike Beavis.. Its a quad.

I'm thinking that the "billit triple tree" and that rear rack are gonna add some SERIOUS HP.

SHUUUDUUUP YA MAROON![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Ya I know, this guy bought everything to make the quad look fast and didnt even put in an air filter??? Sounds like he was a real POSER!!

but it worked out good for me. i didnt spend chit. i am sure it is jetted. It seems to run very strong. I test drove a different stock one and this one is definitely faster. I cant tell if it is jetted for sure but I am assuming it is by the way it runs.

The Alba pipe is located on the left side and its below the shifter j\k. As for the rack im hoping your talking about the six pack rack and not the type that comes on 4x4 quads. If it is the 4x4 type rack that is got to be a sight guess you could strap a deer to it after a weekend of hunting lol.

rso- funny!!! I found out this girl I work with knows the old owner and is going to find out about it for me. I love this thing I rode it a little today on a dirt road. I am going to take it to a good spot on thursday. I love it.

are the gys yamaha pipes good??It is just a slip on. I would probably be open to changing it to full system if I could get a big gain.

What you have is an Alba Patriot Graphics kit installed along with a lot of $$$ worth of after market goodies. This is a nice looking machine and for the price you did very very well. My guess would be over a grand of aftermarket goodies.

I figured as much. but i am still very happy. I put over 20k into my 12 and will never get it back,,,,so,,, I can appreciate having all the extra goodies thrown in[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I need to get this thing lubed. It has a nasty squeek in the rear shock when you compress the shock.
