ok well that pos has been in the shop 3 times so far.
i am hard on stuff. and after the 50 mile break in i showed no exception to the rule here.
it is fast. in fact as fast as a 450 2 stroke 2wd racer.
but the cv shafts in the back SUCK.
who ever thought this was a good idea?
i have torn two boots, and the first boot was torn so long it wore the joint out at 75 miles.
fuel mileage... yuck... the thing has a CVT, and that said its like a snowmobile, always revving out when your going slow or fast.
has a 5 gallon tank, good for about 60 miles. that sucks!
i would get 120 miles out of my honda with a 2 gallon tank. now the honda was a 350 this is a 750, but this is also fuel injected. its a bit faster on the trails, about 2-3 times more accel, actually so much speed can be gotten on the trail i have had some close calls stopping... hit 3 trees so far with it, thank goodness i got the bull bars put on the front.
the brakes are good, almost to the point of lockup. and thats good.
the tires.... wow never have i seen such poor tires. sidewall flex is off the chart, traction is awful. cant wait to replace them.
the moral of this story is stick with a solid rear axel if you can find one. i think i would have got the articcat 1000 if i had to do it again, but then that might be junk too......
i wish honda made a big bore twin offering.
perhaps the 1000cc engine from there rice rocket would be good?
