Looking Good!!!!

[outlander560]

thanks...its pretty good the paint has a nice shine to it in the light...it would look better without the mud on it though

[rancher420]

what kind of paint did you use?

[outlander560]

use any pait brush just get rid of the hairs... also make sure the tire is clean i use a windex bottle full of soap and water and just wipe it clean of all dirt and grease..and then sand it with a high rated sand paper i used 500 or 600

I think they look good. A lot better than just the steel.

[outlander560]

yea i agree

[joshwgrossenbacheryfz]

keep it stock it will run forever

[Stoopidbot1]

The mods are not what ruins the motor. Not setting the motor up properly to handle the mods is what does it.

I agree with Bot you have to make sure if you change one thing "air, fuel or spark" that you compensate with the others.

[Stoopidbot1]

I have also seen people that put these boxes to increase the rpms to a number that is too high for the stock internals. The people who make a quad that is built to run at 30HP run at 70HP but don't change all the necessary stuff to safely run a small motor at those kinds of numbers...Those are the ones who ruin their machines.
