I did a search before posting and found your post about the tail light wires so that was the first thing I checked. I am starting to think that I caused something to short when I pulled the air box. I have looked and none of the wires are pinched but it seems like a good bet because the problem star...

The last couple trips to the dunes I have been blowing the fuse on night rides. It has been fine for the first 10 minutes then pops the fuse. I rode all day with the lights off with no problem. After the first blown fuse I replaced the tail light with an led bulb. I traced the tail light wires as fa...

I looked up cree led lights but didnt find anything close to 10k that would fit in the stock headlight locations. I don't want to add a light bar just replace the stock lighting. Most lumens I found was around 3200 each in a 4.6" round light. I think it might fit with a little trimming of t...

I know some people have been running the HID bulbs in their stock housings but has anyone run LED lights yet? They make bulbs that fit in the stock housings but they don't put out any more light than the stock bulbs. They do draw a fraction of the current though. What I am thinking about is a 4 ...

You just need to find comedy in irony. <br /><br />People that drive around for 10 minutes and wait in line idling their car for another 10 minutes to save 3 cents a gallon on gas. How much money is your time on this earth worth to you? In the end they burn half a gallon of gas and waste 20 minutes ...

Thanks for the help. I didn't think my shocks were bad. They don't leak and feel like they have good damping and my brothers speed rides just like mine.So what does it cost to have the reservoirs added and have the shocks gone through? I guess I should ask Dave about a stiffer rear spring too.

I'm kinda at a turning point. I don't ride much 3-4 times a year. Been looking around at other quads because mine needs a ton of motor work. Leaking oil into the trans (not oil bridge o rings) leaking coolant (bad valve cover) Won't start after sitting for less than a month without fresh...

The clear tank is not the problem. The fuel came out of a clear can that was sitting next to the dale in the same conditions. That's the fuel that I put in the tank to get it to run after I drained the dale. I have heard of problems with stuff growing in the fuel but that was always on diesel tr...

I don't know what is going on in my fuel system but it won't start after as little as two weeks of sitting. I change the fuel and it will fire right up. I only run 92 ethanol free fuel. The same fuel can sit in my snowmobile my other quad or just in a can and it will be fine but there is som...
