I wrapped a couple wraps of electrical tape around the handle at the contact points. I have electric start, so I don't use handle often. It's tucked away In there nicely.

Better check out clutching and make sure it's right. Sounds like maybe they put some 800 weights In there. Check weights, springs, helix, belt, and gears if everything else checks out.

Personally, I would replace the pistons . Compression numbers won't show how much piston wear and rocking is going on in there . My buddies '16 pro s broke a skirt at 4500 miles . Was running perfect up to that point . In the real world of 2 strokes, we seem to expect way to much from these...

Just thought I'd throw it out there . As I get older, I'm looking for more creature comforts. Namely, constant 12v power on my non es sled . No pidd either . I purchased a pidd power up kit and installed with battery . I was looking to have constant power for some accessories. Gps ...

I would agree with star. Check out the capacitors . I'm not sure if they can be tested, but ivI' seen pics of them with rub through on the frame tubes . Might be obvious once looking at em . Possibly smell em too. I'm a HVAC service tech, when a transformer or similar burns out, I can...

When you get them out, you'll see that the stock mag side rubber is much softer. Not sure why, but they are certainly wearing out quick .

I used 2017 PTO mounts on mag side. My mag side stock mounts we're shot at 1000 miles

121 mph .

All the forums have slowed down over the course of time. Most guys are chatting in the Facebook groups these days. Larger audience and quicker response, but not as much knowledge as the forums.

I had the same issue as you. I ended up cutting a small piece of sheet metal the same size as the sticker, stuck it on, and riveted it to the hood, just below the headlight. Couple small holes in the hood, but it'll always have a sticker there anyway.

Should need the X2 seat, and the backrest that locks on to the cargo rack. They make just a backrest, and one with hand holds

Also can leave the rack on if I go on a long trip. There's a few options of bags and such that'll lock into the rack. Maybe better than a tunnel bag that gets wet, scratches tunnel, holds heat on top of coolers.

Yep. Last much longer too.

Well if anyone is interested, this is what I ended doing. Cut the rush chassis rack to fit on my Assault. Along with the X2 seat and backrest from Switchback adventure.
