BR TECH Thrasher Hood????

im looking into buying the thrasher hood. is it pre cut out for the headlight or no? i dont want to run a headlight and that hood seems like the most durable for the best price. anyone know about them?
 
I have a couple of them, this is what they look like before you make any cuts for vents. One is an F-series and the other one is the M-series.

br tech hoods

i have one for my yamaha, no holes are drilled or cut out, but you can see the marks to cut the stock holes or vents. i love this hood, it is so light !!!!!

...and do you like them?
What don't you like about them?


Yeah, so far so good. They take a little creativity to mount, I used a 1/4" dowel rod through the front. Super tough, I don't think you could break one. I hit tons of trees and lexan just won't hold up. When I get stuck I almost always roll the sled over and don't worry about the hood breaking. They are not very shiny and pretty. Stickers don't stick to them but I really don't care what they look like. Leave the stock hood on the shop wall, beat up the cheap $100 hood and then put the stock one on when you sell it.

As far as what I don't like, I wouldn't trust the scribe marks for your cuts, I did on one and they were a little off. I think every sled is a little different. They are not real heat resistant. If you leave one in the sun in the summer it will get super flexible. You need to vent it well and make sure you keep under hood temps down. I'm not sure how running twins would go with one on there. Hope this helps.
 
Love mine. Absolutely no issues. I store mine inside all the time. Sled has rolled over rocks and trees with no issues. I need more venting but does well with twins under the hood. Windshield doesn't fit the headlight cutout very well but that's minor. Not flashy, not what it's meant for. Perfect for me.

I'm seriously considering one of these hoods.

How are they for weight in comparison to a stock hood that's had all the guts (foam, headlight, ect) removed from it?
 
How much does one for a edge cost?? for the right price u will have an order from me next week!

I'm guessing if you call brock or cory you will end up with one somewhere in the neighborhood of $100. The shipping via grayhound is expensive and takes forever, I would try to figure out a way to pick one up.
