Thanks

20 foot lbs, or 240 inch pounds. This spec is worth 5 MPH track speed....

i need new motor mounts 90 durometors. where do i find them? high performance has discontinued them
never mind found them from wahl bros.

are 90's the hard mounts or soft ones? I ran hard mounts on my old 1140 for the first winter i ran it and it twisted itself off the plate every few weeks. Then a parts guy buddy of mine told me to run the softest mounts i could get. Never tore any again. Run soft ones on my 1200 and have never torn one yet in 7800 miles.

Hey guys, I'm thinking I could actually part with my IQR 1200 to buy a RZR4 and listed it in the classifieds.
Thanks to everyone on this thread for helping me build the best sled I've ever had the pleasure of riding. Especially Lynn and Brad.
If no one buys it, then lucky me and thanks anyway.
Happy New Year my big triple friends.

Evolution man..... What a ride eh???

Thinking about selling my edge chassis CPI mountain pipes if anyone is interested!

 

[the_hog]

Are you guys running a T-stat? I am having trouble with a low water temp. As soon as I dive off into the fresh stuff my water temp drops to 70-80 degrees.

 

[flying pig]

yes I run one. Brad had me drill a small hole in it, can't remember what the reason was, something about it blowing hoses when it closes or something? But yea I've always had one in mine and its been good.

I did at one point. Like Brandon said, put an extra little bleed hole in it. Sure made thing more consistent. My motor seemed to like 90-120* range the most.

 

[Hardass]

Yep 90/120 here as well.

 

[the_hog]

Thanks guys, are any of you running a Union Bay head? Thats what I have and there is no spot in it for a T-stat like Brads head. You guys got any ideas? I think I have seen ones you can put inline? I dont have much room in any of my lines though.

Anyone need lectron flanges? I think they work on roundslides too if I remember correctly. Mine had 44 lectrons in em. Also gonna sell my CPI mountain pipes and my crank shop #10's too. Cranks are for gen 2, CPIs are for edge...

 

[joshkoltes]

run

finally got one running again. as soon as i had it going late last year i nailed a boulder in the edge chassis, broke down this year and threw it in my buddies gen II temperarily until i get a new edge tunnel.
