My Ranger XP-800 thread.........

Great walk around Jimbo. Here is a layout of your Intake.

Wow , thats a lot of Duct work..... :D

I hate it, I can't see the videos here at work. They block a lot of things here. Man, I would love to see them. I bet that think looks great! It will look even better when Pate gets through with it! I hope we can get together and ride soon. I want to see what it looks like with a little mud on it. And maybe a little in the back!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, looks like pate is going to need his HVAC license.

Pate really did a great job on the S I bought from him. I want to see what he does to this one.

Pate, I like you old buddy, but stay away from my credit card!!!!!!!!!!!

I am trying to max it out by my self!!!!!!!!!!

Now, WE WANT PICTURES OF ALL THE NEW GOODIES!

Very nice 's Jimbo........I thought that you'd like this machine.....a lot of thought and good design went into the XP...ask me some day about the belt drive filter

Nice vids pate, looks like a great machine.

I did find something in the manual last night-
Engine Intake Restrictor Plate
" Some Ranger 800 models are equipped with an intake restrictor plate in order to meet vehicle class regulations. This plate must not be removed for any reason"

To me, this means "I have a reason to remove it" :D Wonder where it is????

Nice vids, Jimbo !! :D

I think the reason the H.D. has only 40 H.P. is because of the restrictor-plate, it's the same motor, but with 6 h.p. less.

Craig,
Theres a, at least, 30 plus quart storage bin under the drivers seat. I would guess it's 2-1/2 times bigger than a Rhinos under-seat storage. Now a Crew has a storage bin all the way across the rear seat. You could hide two 5 year olds in that thing!!!!!!!!!!!

Captains-Log, Day 5.
17 miles.
Went through the river today, and got wet up to my shins. She pulled all the way against the current with not a slip. The stock tires do not do as well as Big-Horns, but did the job. Cut,split and hauled at least a 1/4-cord of firewood to the house. One thing an S can't do....... :D

So far, besides the school-bus like ergos. I likey!!!

pate ....did u see that pic of the white 4 seater the other day....cant find it.

White two-seater, but no white 4-seater??? Musta missed it....

Found my lift. No sketchy blocks or bracketry. No change in shock geometry. Fronts are 2-inches forward. New arms. Your choice of Powder-Coat

Jimbo, after having a few days with the Ranger, which machine do you like best? Are you liking the polaris brand or yamaha better?

off,
That would be really hard to say at this point. I've yet to get into any comparable situations with it. Weathers been terrible, I've been sick, only 22 miles. I do like the machine so-far.

Good-night at the farm................The Ezra Lock and Ride System, worked perferctly..........

Pate you've got a PM.
