Bikeman Boost Can is a Dud

[Boosted Billy Goat]

Installed a Bikeman muffler for my 22’ boost. Not sure if it’s the new Polaris ecm updates or bad luck but it sucks. Sputters in mid range and fouled a plug within first hour. Sled has never fouled a plug or sputtered with stock can on. Reinstalled stock can, changed plug…ran perfect for a week out in IP last week, zero issues. Can design may be a dud? I have a call into Bikeman, I’ll update with their response asap. My buddy installed a boondocker can on his sled, indenticwl to mine, ran awesome all week out west, great sound. Stay tuned….get it…tuned…as sorry…lol

First and only ? . Is it possible you just fouled the plug and blame the can. Maybe you should have just changed the plug not the can.

If you get on Facebook and contact. Jared Sessions he is there mountain tester. He will be happy to help.

Yes first and only plug fouled. Ran great before and after removing the can. I’m not a mechanic but it seems fairly obvious the can causes the issues. Lots of other guys reporting same thing with bikeman cans on boosts so it’s not just me and I’m generally a fan of their stuff…put their stage two sniper clutch kit in my 9R for same trip to IP last week, was amazing. Still waiting for a call back from bikeman….

Usually the 23’ update map runs much cleaner than the stock 22’. Shouldn’t be fouling plugs with the 23’ map, it runs very good

So did you try and replace the fouled plug before taking the can off and see how it ran. I get that it never fouled a plug but **** happens. Probably the first thing bikeman will ask you also. Have one boost that has a bikeman can and it has never skipped a beat.

No, I was leaving for a week out west the next day, so ripped the Bikeman can off snd put stock back on. What i Can Tell you is Bikeman sucks at customer support. Four calls over five days, not one call back…got shuffled to Tom left detailed VM, then was told some Trevor guy is who I need to talk too…left VM, then yesterday it’s Joey the tuner…left VM….while you listen to an automated message on how important it is to them to provide good service snd suppot bahahahah. Im done with thsee clowns…eBay it is for the Bikeman can. I’ll buy a boondocker since it works awesome on my buddies 22 boost. What else should I do after four attempts to just talk to someone at Bikeman? Beg them? They can FO.

Unfortunately that is the standard bikeman experience.

Tried to make their 900 kit work on my alpha a couple years. Blew up twice even after Bikeman put it together and dynoed it themselves. Never did run right. They are a complete joke for sure

 

[Boosted Billy Goat]

Still no returned calls after three detailed messages left over a week. Save your hard earned dough boys, do not buy from these guys…they’re words on service and quality do not match their inactions…

Have two buddies in our riding group with tuned boost sleds, one has a full BMP setup, the other a full tuned speedwerx setup. The speedwerx sled has WAY more bottom end and response, it seems like their clutching works way better. Seems like speedwerx has their boost package dialed in!

Sorr to hear. I have a new extra Diamond S titanium can for a boost. lmk if you’re interested.

Everyone has short memories, they have always been a shet company with shet products and ridículas performance claims . Just happened to be first to market on the boost and everybody looses their senses.

 

[Wintertime]

They put out a pretty good Calendar every year.

The calender is their only r&d. They peaked in high school.

 

[goridedoo]

Buddies 23 Boost with their can was running perfect… doesn’t mean they all do.

I will give Bikeman credit on fit and finish of some of their newer stuff I’ve had. They’ve come a long ways in that department.

 

[High Voltage]

Ride with a 21 Doo turbo with bikeman stage 2. Leaves black streaks in the snow, and last week fouled a plug. Definitely runs rich, and lost the snappy bottom end.

 

[Boosted Billy Goat]

Still no call back from tech support. I guess you have to call and call and beg them to to provide support for their products. It’s on eBay, I’ll never buy anything from these guys again.

Jason McMurray from Muskoka Freerider YouTube videos had nothing but issues as well with his '22 boosted sled with Bikeman parts. Many of the same issues you described. Ruined a few days of riding out west for him.

Cracks me up when these guys plaster these company names all over their sled wraps before they even run their stuff or experience their horrible customer service.

I've given it to them on the boost/9R page a lot, only pipe I ever bought where I lost rpm . Was years ago on one of my cats and they beat around the bush on how it somehow made more power done lower but it was a turd
