Moved the Ipod mount around on the handle bars so I could see it better and so it wasnt sticking up high for everything to hit and get caught on. After that I Tore around the country side and discoved the local gravel pits closed their gates for the weekend so I loaded up and went to the ATV park. Put on 39 miles today.

Opened the door on the strorage shed to make sure it was still there. Closed the door and walked away until the next time I go check on it. Anyone that says the Thundercats are hard on fuel is crazy. I filled mine up on May long weekend and it's still on the same tank of fuel.:cool:

I love the quad; but I hate quadding. I put 12,000 kms on the Suzuki Kingquad I had before this one at work in 3 summers; so now that I only have to quad if the operators need me to help them out; and they rarely do, this one just gets to sit on stand by and look pretty. Those new Outlaws I put on this summer are gonna last a looooooong time.:D:D Soon there will be snow in the mountains; then it's time to ride.:cool:

Well, last week i tuned on the dyno somemore and got an extra 2 hp on the rear wheels and 2 ft lbs of torque,,,
sitting at 65.4 RWHP ( 90 motor hp ) fine tuned the clutch some more and now my shift out is 7800rpm with a rev limit of 8900 rpm.
top speed is still 137 km/hr.. I have finally reached the end of tuning.. if i want more now, i have to go to a bbk. lol..
machine likes 5 degree's advance on the timing from brp's stock setting...

On a side note, kevin dynoed a 1000 outty last week... bone stock... made 63.28 rwhp and 46.8 ft lbs of torque... not bad for a stock machine.. throw on a few mods and do some serious clutch tuning and you will have a monster.. can you maybe say 80 RWHP!! it will be nuts.. the mods are already on standby as we talk.. should have some test results in the next 3 weeks or so.

Sounds like I might want one....

IMG-20110822-00033.jpg Theres the finished product, I did it differently due to a buddies suggestion and got rid of the airbox completely, I'll be changing the setup when I get some ambition, it runs good just lost a little mid-range snap.

Loaded the Banshee on the Ford, hooked on the hoilday trailer. Seeing how the Banshee hasn't been camping for 5 years....... I figure it's time to take her out and spin some R's....... LOL
