All I'm really interested in is the header pipe as the 08's have a million curves in it and come out facing the right rear tire.

Would like the older header pipe to make my own exhaust.

If you want to sell all that is cool too. Let me know what you're thinking for price.

That or send me the new one. roflmao

Darn the luck Tick......nope it wasn't her
Sad

DD....Will do my friend.....might even be today!!!!!

Nope Gunny.....not right now....going to have fun with this one for a little while longer.

JJJ.....you can have the header pipe if everything goes well with what I just bought.

Piston is in jug and on engine....head and cam are in.........not so sure that she might breath fire today!!!!! woo hoo

I ran into a small issue this afternoon and as a result I was not able to complete the assembly and fire it up. Am waiting from an answer from the manufacture before I complete assembly.

Looking sharp,

Interesting that the new pipe goes sideways instead of out the rear.

Also like the new air tube set up.

What kind of jetting are they recommending?

Wish I could, we have a 2 week trip to Utah's Paiute trail (first time out there) planned this year so that is our one major trip this year. The rest are going to have to be real close to home.

One of these years I want to get down and check out the Easterly trails. I work for the school system up here so I've got June, July, and Aug for big trips

I'll gladly pay shipping on the header pipe just let me know how much to 55944 and how you'd like to be paid.

woo hoo .....it runs!!!!! Had it out for the first time today; what a difference!!!!
No I haven't had it wide open, so I can't yet say just how fast it will go, 52 so far with a lot of pedal left, but I can tell you this....in low it almost lifts the front tires.... It sounds like no other UTV I've ever heard...no doubt that it has a cam......and the tone of the exhaust is low and mellow!

Still have a number of things to finish up and still some things to put back on the machine, but I'm getting close!!!!!!! woo hoo drive
