Anyone heard anything about this?

It is pretty much for UT's right now. I saw some sport bikes out there a few months ago getting towed back and wet!

A lot of people use the LM1 with bungs welded to the exhaust to the readings. You get your air/fuel ratio there. you also watch the dyno graph and see where the hp and torque start to drop off at a certain speed. From there you can tune the clutch with different springs and weights for optimal hp through out the power band avoiding the shift out. I hope I explained it well enough. There is a lot that goes into tuning a bike.

an atv properly tuned on a dyno came gain 2-3 more horsepower, have a better powerband, and more snap to the throttle.  Then you go race it ;)

Thank you well said! 8) I'm not making any money on this deal. It is not my machine. However I would like to see one in our area where it doesn't cost the same amount in fuel to get there as the dyno fees. If no one has interest this will go away and I will forget about it. I am just trying to see if I can help some people out. ;)

Why do you need to dyno your atv just go race it

I use it to properly tune the carbs and the clutch. I want the most power on the grund at a certain time. Tuning a clutch is a big deal in mud racing.

Group Rides & Events / ATV Dyno in Central Florida
January 05, 2009, 02:51:08 PM
My neighbor is one of the VP's for a performance company in the Sanford, Florida area. We spoke and he told me he has access to an ATV dyno. The catch is it is in Utah now. He told me that if there is enough interest to warrant shipping costs and the initial set up they would be more than happy to bring it down. The fees for its usage will be reasonable and all of that will be worked out by he and I.

I know there is not a dyno for ATV's anywhere in this area so I thought I would post and see what kind of interest is generated. Please post and let me know if you would be interested. If there is enough interest we can have this thing down here, up and running very soon!

Tony those videos look real good. I especialy like the Doles video with T-Man doing donuts at the begining. I think it's important to get some of the kids in there as well! You guys are doing a great job!!

In case you didn't know, the mudlite XL has a deeper tread pattern I believe about 1 1/4 compared to the standard mudlite being I believe 3/4. The XL starts at 26 in and up tires. The Mudlites are great tires from what I've heard. I personally ride on outlaw MST's, their version of a mud and trail tire. I couldn't be happier.

Thanks for the reply. There is also a Remington  Model 770 .270 that is up for grabs for $400. New in box with papers and never been fired. Blued with Camo composite stock and Bushnell 3X9. I'm not too wild over the scope, but what do you think about the package?

WOW! I leave for the weekend to go fish and I come back to 50 posts! Thank you very much for the replies and information. Anoriginal I really appreciate your offer as well but I am on the NE side of Orlando now and with diesel fuel prices it would kill me to take a ride over there. I think I have narrowed it down to a 30-06. My brother has a Remington 7400 with 10 rounds through it that he is looking to part with for $600. It's got a Pentax scope, not quite sure of quality of the scope. What do you guys think of that?

Thanks,

I thought about the .308 but I forgot to list it. I think I'm leaning towards the 30-06 and the .308.
Any more thoughts?

I'm in the market for a new deer rifle. I've only hunted with a bow and shotguns in the past due to the areas I have hunted. My dad just acquired a sizable piece of hunting land and I am now able to use a rifle. I also will be hunting in Alabama at my dads lease. I've looked at several rifles, but I haven't nailed it down as of yet.

What would you recommend out of the following calibers?
.270
30-06
7mm

Are there any other calibers you would recommend?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

There is a very big difference between Arrogance and Confidence.
