First mod

Im finally getting around to make my first Mod. 2015 650xt. I was trying to decided between Yoshimura exhaust or Mega Mayhems?? Can only do one for now, maybe a couple months before I get the ok from the wife to do more. What would you go with?? Mostly do trail/mud riding. Thanks for the input.

Newbie

Hey all. Just registered with the forum. Looks like an insightful place. I’m from Livermore Maine. And just recently purchased a 15′ maverick. Nothin fancy but I like it so far. Still working on getting all the necessity’s winch, roof, windshield, tires, clutch kit. If you call all that necessary haah. Only thing I don’t like about it is the gauge isn’t back lit. Are they supposed to be? It’s not the x model.

05,660,4×4,grizzly starts fine , idles fine , but you get it warmed up good and it will backfire ,1time or it may backfire 5,6,7,8 times. then it goes for ? miles and do it again.dont matter if your getting on it or letting off it, random. havent tore into it yet bc i dont know where to start . thinkin valves or springs, gasket maybe,carb? thanks for your time.

RDC Rad relocate question

Pulling the trigger on a rad relocate. RDC gets good reviews. They offer an XMR style that pivots for G1 machines. My question is does anybody with this style have problems with it loosening up while riding? I assume this type can be lowered into a low profile position which is what I’m looking for. Thank for any input.

Kick start for Honda 300 fourtrax

Is there a certain way, or special way for putting in the kickstart spindle. I put mine in, and it’s making a whining noise when I start the motor. I do everything correct, like it tells me to do. I take the kickstart off, and put everything back together and it sounds fine. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
