Throttle cable routing

Jfer — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 03:23:28 GMT

I installed my Rox 5" risers and FLY Aero bars today. Upon testing everything out I am getting a pull on the throttle cable at full right lock. Any suggestion on rerouting the throttle cable? Also which end is it best to remove, at the TB or the at the thumb throttle? Thanks

Rebuild?

Pamiller450 — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 02:52:18 GMT

Ok guys, I am thinking about doing a top end rebuild, this is why.
It has starting smoking when giving it gas not when idling at all. I pulled the plug and it had oil on the threads, checked the oil it was very low. It is not hard to start cranks right up. When i reach 29mph it acts like it is hitting the rev limiter. I think that might be electrical.

I have drowned it out a couple of times and always changed the oil and cleaned it after every time.

So what do you think is it time to tear into it?

Older griz locker

01GRIZ — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 22:25:19 GMT

I have broken a CV for the second time. I have a locked(welded) front end. I have to take the thing apart again to fix it, and I was thinking of adding a Detroit locker to it. I was wondering if anyone else had used a Detroit locker on an older Griz. I completely want a locked front end, but it would be nice to have the easier steering again. I would like to hear from anyone who has installed and used one.

Thanx

550/700 HD Brush Guard

NJ09Grizz — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 20:43:19 GMT

I found this HD Brush Guard while on eBay, I went back and forth on the offer and settled on $170.00 through "make offer". So for $190.00 WITH shipping is not bad! It looks like there is three left and wanted to pass it on.

Recommendation's For Agressive All Terrain Tire

Sasquatch — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 19:52:11 GMT

Looking for a good all around 26" tire that can handle occasional mud and snow but will mostly see hard pack and rocks. I am not a speed-demon type of rider so I don't care if the tire drifts well, I would rather sacrafice a little handeling for some extra-meaty traction! Side wall protection and long tire life would be a big +...

just playing in the mudd

dwanton1 — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 19:11:10 GMT

the second week we had the bike -- the last saturday of august -- found a little mudd left in the woods -- and not much rain in southern jersey for over a month now , so puddles are hard to come by.
i am suprised the wife on the back didnt ask to get off -- and my 6 year old son thought he was on a amusement park ride -- he was yelling the whole time -- he loved it.. made buying the bike way worth it :s_good:

1st time stuck & had to winch her out

dwanton1 — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 18:09:13 GMT

went all over the water hole and the last place i looked i knew was deep and went for it anyway. should of known better since i knew it was clay and sand hole and had terrible grip with stock tires.

now i know everyone of my new found friends here are looking and saying "how the hell did he get stuck there"? it doesnt look that deep -- well it is very sandy and silty clay -- but i am gonna have to admit and i am very embarrassed here to do it , but i will tell -- i put the bike in 4 wheel drive - THE RED BUTTON - which is not locked 4 wheel - i did make the atempt to slide the switch cover and press the yellow locking dif -- i swore i hit the switch and it was in locking 4 wheel drive -- i myself could not believe i was stuck and had to use the winch , but i was happy i had the winch to get out.
funny thing is -- when we were leaving the pit i wanted to put everything back into 2 wheel drive for the ride home , so i hit the yellow button and this bright as hell red light lights up that apparently tells you that you are in locked 4 wheel drive --- oh my god !!! guess i should know how to use something before i go out --- :laugh1:
