  8. The Only Thing Worse Than a Flat is no Compressor to Fill It. Tire troubles can be a hassle, even if you're close to your hauler. Imagine a flat miles away from nowhere. If you don't have a compressor, you're in for a long walk out. On longer treks, it could be a life and death situation. You could take one of those junky "portable" air compressors that require a great deal of valuable space and a strong battery to run. The same compressor that tends to fall apart and takes minutes to put a tiny amount of air in your tires. Or, you could take ATVAIR with you. With no electricity required, the ultra high quality American made ATVAIR is small enough to toss in your toolkit for those times when you or one of your buddies needs some air. Easy to use, quick filling and affordable, the ATVAIR is one tool no ATV rider should be without. When you think about it, a gas engine is simply a powered compressor. Instead of hauling a bulky, electric compressor around, simply put a hose on your built in ATV compressor and have all the air you could ever need, up to 30PSI depending upon the model. Super Easy to Use! When you find yourself with a flat or dangerously low tire, simply put your ATV in neutral, and put on the brake. Connect the locking ATVAIR Stainless and Brass filler valve to the tire valve stem, and gently insert the rubber cone into the muffler. In a minute or two, your tire is full! It's that easy. A couple of things you need to know. Don't press the cone all the way into the pipe or it will kill the engine. Allow some exhaust to escape, there will still be plenty of tire filling pressure. Make sure there is plenty of ventilation and use some good leather gloves to keep from getting burned. Great new item to carry with you on the trails! Visit http://www.atvair.com/ for ordering info.

  16. It´s one debate that doesn´t seem to be going anywhere fast. If you´re buying a brand new winch like the Superwinch Terra 45 or maybe it is just time to replace your old cable. Which way do you go: steel or synthetic? Let´s take a look at the pros and cons so you can decide once and for all which is better for YOU. Life of the Cable After an extended period of time depending on use, a steel cable can start to crimp, get rust spots or develop frayed strands of steel cable which can give you nasty cuts and also decrease the reliability of the cable. In the short term, the steel cable can take a lot more abuse than the synthetic variety. However, synthetic cables can have a much longer life. That is of course only if it is taken care of and carefully prevented from fraying on the edges. Fraying edges on a synthetic cable is the beginning of the end for this more costly type of cable. The more affordable steel cables might be more attractive for the rugged wincher who doesn't mind replacing a steel cable at the first signs of wear. Potential and Kinetic Energy You don´t need to be a science major to recognize the danger of a cable under extreme tension. Whether it is due to overbearing the cable or a replacement cable is well overdue, it can be a potentially very dangerous situation. In terms of this, Synthetic is generally the winner as it doesn´t become a dangerous projectile. It is also easier on the hands and actually provides more pull per inch. Bear in mind however, that your maximum pulling power is still limited by the winch you select. It´s downside is that if it is in contact with a sharp edge, it has the possibility of slicing or fraying the edges, which is very unlikely with a steel cable. UltraViolet Some users of synthetic cable have made complaints about UV damage causing weakness that leads to a decrease in strength. Newer synthetic lines are being manufactured UV resistant, and a winch cover is also a cheap solution to this problem. Company Choice About 95% of new winches are being shipped by their companies with standard steel winch cables. This can be taken as just because they are the cheaper option of the two for them to make the most profit, or a signal that it is still the best choice of cable. Power As I mentioned before, Synthetic does provide you with more pounds per inch. Which means more pulling power for less cable. Even though pulling power is generally determined by the winch, check out this article with tips for both types of cables on how to double your pulling power. Conclusion: Synthetic is the latest and more expensive cousin, that still has a few kinks to iron out before it really replaces steel cables completely. Steel has been proven in every condition. It is tried and tested and cheaper. For reliability and cost, definitely your cable of choice.

  17. The muscular Brute Force 750 4x4 ATV picked up a ton of upgrades for the 2012 model. An Electric Power Steering (EPS) system is one of the biggest changes, but other new features like a more-powerful V-twin engine, new double-wishbone front suspension, six-spoke cast alloy wheels and new bodywork featuring wide-stance styling cues help share the load. HMF ATV exhaust systems have always responded well to the Brute Force engine. The 2012 model picks up a lot of horse power and torque, especially on the Swamp series. Swamp Series The Swamp is great for it's large mechanical core that directs and controls sound pulses to keep sound levels approximately 1-2 dB over stock. Performance Series The HMF Performance Series has a specially designed, unrestricted core that allows the exhaust to increase power evenly throughout the entire power curve. It also features the signature HMF sound with industry-leading end cap and color options, giving you a completely custom look. Penland Pro Series Backed by ATV legend Mike Penland, the Penland Series was developed for serious off road racers and trail riders striving to achieve more low end torque. The Penland features the same core as the Performance Series, but features the removable TRM that allows quads to hook-up in rough conditions. Swamp XL Series The younger brother of the Swamp Series, the Swamp XL Series (extra loud) offers anywhere between 1-2 more horse power than the standard Swamp Series. What makes the Swamp XL different than the Swamp Series is the non-restrictive core that produces very high dB sound levels. Each HMF Exhaust: Includes a USFS Approved Spark Arrester. Includes a 2 Year Limited Manufacturer’s Warranty. Is made of high quality Aluminum, Stainless Steel, or Carbon Kevlar. Packed with high performance glass wool packing. Includes Installation Instructions. Manufactured in the U.S.A. Don't Forget: Whenever you add an after-market exhaust system to your machine, tuning your carburetor is, in most cases, an absolute necessity. The proper jets and EFI settings are extremely important for the performance and lifespan of your machine.Tuning Kits are available to ensure your machine runs at it's top performance and your HMF Warranty remains valid. HMF Exhaust is available on Amazon!
