well got what I think is a low hr 88 R and thought it could be a bit nicer hope it works out
the day we picked it up. it Ran good didnt feel like it would have all the power it would need in Idaho's dunes. The guy I got it from told me it had a esr 310 and a 39 carb. and it turned out to be a 66mm piston and I'm sure a stock carb the elka shocks didnt work worth a shit so

I can not BELIEVE the guy stiffed you on the engine. I was actually going to go look at that quad, but found my Laeger instead. That is terrible man....

I am a black wheels fan by the way.

P.S. I have a 4 gallon IMS tank like mine in RED that you can get from me if you are interested, and a Keihin 38mm Airstriker PWK! That will wake the engine up, and give you gas for days. My tank never gets in the way, and I have yet to hit reserve...

a friend had some on his 450R I tried em and liked them alot Hope they work as well on the 2 stroke. We have some of the best trails in the west. I like the sand but the woods are lots of fun also. you need to pull the paddles some time and I'll show you around the hills. lots of water to cross all kinds of cool stuff to see in the old gost towns. I like the dirt more on a dirtbike and a quad in the sand but I ride the quad in the dirt also. It's ok if your scared to get dirty I wont tell the guys :D

put some dirt tires and a outerwear on and you'll be set up for dirt. dont you still have breaks on the front. I didnt look at it that hard when we were out at the sand I thought it was at one time a motocross quad

Yeah, mine is an MX quad, setup for the track. I only like that setup for sand riding, because we ride sand like a MX track, so it fits perfectly. You shoulda been at St. Anthony's, we were HAULIN, hitting every lip like it was our last.... Then I finally flew off one of the big ones (overshot the landing).... That calmed me down for 3 minutes... whew!

Looks nice, that is the same color scheme as ours! LOL..... Try a 45 or 52 on the pilot... Should be ballpark, get ya going.

Talk to NormalZ on jetting. He is brilliant, and rides like we do....
