Not owning any ATK badged Cannondales in quad or motorcycle form, looking for a little FYI
![unsure.gif](style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif)
When they gathered all remaining units from the factory and the dealers that still had them and done there change over new plastics, re-badging thing, what all did they do to the engines? were they torn down and rebuilt?
I know from reading past forum topics they never installed any updated rod bearing & balanced cranks, right?
Did they install a aluminum cam/valve cover on all of them? from some i seen it looks like they had black ones on them!
Did they use a aluminum water pump impeller?
Did they install metal oil pump gears?
Did they install some kind of bolt retention system on the cartridge plates?
Did they do any other updates to them?
What did they do about VIN numbers that C'Dale had already put on the frame's? did they change them? how did they call it a different year and what about MSO's?
Did any of the units they sold just start out of the parts bins and get assembled from chassis to engine?
Was anything about them better than the original C'Dale versions?
Any answers or input on this info or additional info on things i didnt ask would be greatly appreciated! Thanx & Ciao!
