That statement wins the ATV Connection BU!!**** award

THEMOOSE,

Your going to have to give 2 of those awards out. I haven't even purchased a sprocket.

Chet OOPs, I just remembered I did buy a uni filter as a back up in case my stock filter got really dirty and would be needed for a quick change. I don't think that would count though.

Wasted money on .125 rims instead of .190 rims the first time I bought rims.

Scott Hurricane grips. And most of the methods that people have told me how to make them stick.

Cheap helmets.

Other than that everything ive bought has helped or at least made the bike look PURTY! Chrome and properly placed stickers do make your bike faster I don't care what anyone says!!!!

I think the biggest waste of money was for an AMP link for my warrior. I couldn't really tell a difference, and it was more noisy than stock.

I'll have to go with Jennifer on a few things. I hate my Scott Hurricane grips, and cheap helmets are a waste of money.

I also had to return a few items, because they gave my DS650 WAY too much power. A Reed cage, a set of powerbands, and exhaust bearings. With those mods, it was just too fast for me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

CT Pipe, never got it &quot;tunable&quot; and when I called Allan Knowles seemed Pi$$ed at taking the time to answer any questions. I'll still do business in Anahiem,just not with him [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I bought a set of Skat Trak &quot;Dune Trakkers&quot; Don't hook up at all. I had 2hrs on them now they sit in the shop. $120.00 wasted!
