Best at what?

Nice shots. Thanks for posting

My bad. I was not thinking about the turbo. A guy that races against me has the wildcat. It is impressive to look at. Having less support for it scares me a little though.

I am not a desert racer but I'll chime in since no one else has. I would probably go with the RZR or an X3. Probably the X3 because of the wheelbase. Being new to them the support they have would be very helpful. Everyone knows what it takes to make them competitive and you should not have any...

Is it a coincidence that the site seemed to fall off as the X3 started to really come on?

I not really up to date on social media. What would I do to find the type on content that I used to find here?

I can't say what killed this place but it is on it's last breath for sure. It is a shame too, it was a great site with more hardcore knowledge vs the typical questions/discussions on the other forums.

The supercharger downside is that you have to spin it somehow...

I've decided he is a Russian troll assigned to keep Americans from being productive at work.

Honda is not going to build anything game changing fast, that all died with the 250R and the CPSC tricycle fines.

IYL, serious question. It is obvious from the posts that one of your opinions is that the age range for the class is too wide (which I am not disagreeing with). Why can't you just state that? Why run around in troll circles, it is like debating with a magic 8 ball...

I agree completely Blue Coyote. IYL. You want to come off as intelligent and then you compare bumpers on a car to those built onto a UTV. Come on, you can do better than that.

I can "play" as I like. That is what playing is. I am calling you out on your comment above "allowing 570's to run without bumpers". Back that up with some tech on how that makes the ride more dangerous for the kid. I do agree that they should be allowed underbody protection.

I'll play. Explain how bumpers on a UTV designed in the typically seen fashion make the occupant safer.

That sucked for the guy behind, attacked while harnessed up.

First, just to help your lingo there is no 1000cc RZR turbo. There is a 1000 non turbo and a RZR turbo that is 925cc. How wide are the trails you ride? Personally I would stay away from the Wildcat.

Since we have gotten on to tools, anyone have a mid-price tool brand that they like? Something along the lines of what craftsman was years back?

What is that? coolant and synthetic oil mix?

Can-am sure loves their rivets! What a pain...

I know nothing about them but I would expect that it has a very low resale value. Is it a china vehicle that they put their name on?

I believe it is a combination of the two. More wall would lessen the chance of cracking for sure.

I will add that this is not on a buggy that sees "normal use".

Yes, cracks in the front of 2 seaters. Our thoughts are that the material chosen is harder than mild steel so they are experiencing some of the cracks you typically see in hard alloys.

I forgot about all the issues you have had, Get ready for cracks in the frame too. Not sure if that secret is out yet!

Not sure I believe that Polaris is better quality than can-am and I have owned a few of each.

I've seen guys cut a little "wheel" out of plywood for this purpose.

Unless I am mis-understanding I believe you should be changing the high speed compression for what you are wanting. Small square edge stuff is mostly high shaft speed stuff.

4" of bump steer measured how far from the axle centerline? Also I assume that is taking both directions into account? IE, I am assuming at some point it switches from toe-ing in to toe-ing out and you are counting total toe-change from completely stuffed to completely extended?

We are not parking on grass today though... can't find any, way too much water... at least down here on the coast there is.

In Louisiana we park on the grass all the time. I know I would not have thought much of that. Obviously it is different out west.

interesting...

I typically don't like when we have MX portions in a race but that track actually has quite a few sections that look pretty fun for a UTV. A lot of doubles that would not be too terrible if you came up short.

There is an update kit for the 17 X3 to bring it to 18 standards (HP). You may want to look into that and how the total cost works out if you chose CanAm

I have not messed with a XPT but on my maverick I have two full size radiators plumbed in series. Each in a different location with their own fan.

So you are wanting a kit with a higher motion ratio so you get longer travel with stock length shocks? Or are you just wanting aftermarket arms? Edit: I thought you also said you wanted to remain stock width, I re-read and noticed that was not stated.

Was that shane that got hammered?

I don't agree with a lot of the above but my riding is different then most of you guys. I have owned both at the same time. The Maverick handles in the woods much better than the Polaris. Turns better, brakes better, etc. No belt problems on either for me. XP rides A LOT better for slower speed...

Must be a nice trailer. I paid 15,900 for my brand new XDS Turbo.

Personally I don't like any pre-load or very little so I am curious to hear some other peoples opinions on this.

That 900 with motor work flies though and that cat can drive...

Mine drive a 800 RZR with a +3 kit. Seems to fit well for our needs.

I know very little about new battery technologies. On my kids hopped up TRX90 I need a battery with more power. With the added CC's and compression the stock battery barely spins it quick enough and will discharge very quickly if it does not start right up. Is there a type of battery that offers...

Until Polaris recalls them and only the dealer you purchased from will touch it...

Do you plan on copying a suspension design? If not then you need to REALLY understand what you are doing. I feel like I know a lot about suspension but I hung out with some engineers that consult to Ford, Roush and some others and quickly found that I know only a part of it all. It would be...

Nevermind, one piece of copper on the burnt spot was exposed. Thank you for the help. Scott

Plugged everything in and it runs fine now... damn... I messed with the rear half of the harness and did find one pair that had the outer covering melted but the insulation on each wire seemed fine. Other than that I found nothing unusual. Im sure it will come back...

I found that the ground continuity on yhe violet wire goes open when I power the ecu, so that is probably correct. I have unplugged everything in the harness that feeds the injectors and when i powered it up the fuse did not blow. I have run out of fuses but plan to plug stuff in one by one...

Ive been bending 095 bumpers and nerfs but like stated above I would rather bend those than the chassis.

Ground continuity on one side of plug. Yes, fuse blows as soon as key is turned (without pushing the start button). With the evo injectors i had to splice the injector wiring. There was no injector markings to show polarity so I guessed. Really I don't see why an injector would have a correct...

One fuse for both. Checking with both injectors unplugged.
