going get my big red!!!!

[xtremerancher02]

well guys come this time next week i'll be a proud big red owner i already have my 3" lift on the way, got my hard ware to snorkel it, my new stock cam came in today so it'll be shipping out to web come monday morning, and i'm almost done building my custom exhaust for it here is a couple of pics of the progress of the muffler

this is the can of the muffler

and here is the outlet i have a tip i made for it just don't have a pic of it yet

Will you also be replacing the header pipe or are you just going from the junction where the header pipe meets the muffler.
I’m not real clear how it works on injected ATV/MUV-UTV’s however how will this tie into the control unit? Is it just a dumb box that has little programming except for altitude or is it more complex like to sense load from the TPS? I do see we have no Oxygen sensor so we can’t control mixture.
Not trying to draw comparisons here however my Harley has a power commander that can be dialed in. Since I am at sea level my map would be different than say someone in Denver, The BR engine and trans plug into the same PCM so information is shared within the control unit.
It will be real interesting to see how much difference a Camshaft makes. The muffler I understand, hell, looks at the tail pipe it’s 1/3 to ½ the size of the header pipe. Some backpressure is needed but putting a cork in it can’t help either.
Speaking to your post, nice pictures! Keep everyone informed of your progress please. Speaking for myself only I am interested in what happens at low end.

yea there is some end mills in the background i am a machinist and i also do a lot of custom work on atv's on the side.

As for the header pipe i'll probably just leave it alone if it's anything like a rincon one its already a good size and from what i can tell of pics of the br stock muffler that thing drops down like 2 or 3 times in size b4 it goes in the muffler and i'm also going to call dyno jet monday to see if there pc5 for the rincon will work on the big red b/c if it does i will get that and you can buy the auto tuner for it witch you hook up a o2 sensor up and it keeps the air fuel mixture where it needs to be but i'll keep yall posted on everything but here is a couple of my creations just to let yall know what i can do...lol

my 472cc 98 trx300

my 500cc 02 350 rancher

I just got my CNC mill enclosed this afternoon so I can run a flood coolant system. Have started designing a few parts for the bike. First part I will be making will be a rear view mirror. After that the sky is the limit.

Here is a shot of my current setup.

[xtremerancher02]

Nice I don't have a cnc I do all my stuff on manual machines but I love building stuff and ppl ask me where I bought and simply reply I made it haha

[Cenflrider]

Awsome pictures guys!

[xtremerancher02]

Well guys got my lift in today and I also ordered my hids and 4,500lb winch today should be in b4 the weekend wooo hooo can't wait

[Jerry]

What winch did you get and whose mounting plate are you useing. I have yet to get this done....

[xtremerancher02]

The winch is a venom 4,500 lb and as for the plate I just called my buddy that I order all my parts from at a local shop and told him get me a plate coming it'll be in tomorrow I'll post what kind it is

[Cenflrider]

For anyone needing a winch pleate I have a factory unit
go to the link, Dealers offering Discounts -- Post in here!

And see pictures and more info


Thanks,

[xtremerancher02]

hey Chip thanx for the offer on the winch plate yesterday but i called my boy that i get all my aftermarket parts from and he gave me a real good deal on one

but like i said i got my lift in yesterday and didn't like the zinc color of it so i brought it to work today with me and paint it and i also finished up my spring spacers today let me know what yall think

[Cenflrider]

I like it! And it looks good also! I would like to see more pictures of it installed. The spacers I’ve seen, the lift I have not. But if I’m seeing correct this will relocate the A-arms correct? Will the axles be long enough to accept this relocation? Combined you will have 3-4 inches of lift?

[ccobra8]

That look's like the same lift kit I got. It just moves the shocks down. I would like to see the results of the spacers. I still have to check out the travel with a shock removed. It looks like the top three inches of the springs are completely colapsed sitting still. the shocks only have about 3 inches of travel. The arms will move alot farther. I think Honda has shot themselves in the head not the foot with these shocks and springs.

[xtremerancher02]

well guys a few update pics for yall

this morning

mid day

this afternoon






it's close to 17" of ground clearance and tomorrow i'm going to try and knock out the winch and the hids and maybe a few other goodies ;-)

[W.F.O.]

Wow.....looks awesome. What size tires and wheels, and how much lift?

[Cenflrider]

Looks like there will be mud on this machine this weekend !
The dealer took the nets off for you?
Wheel / tire / size are?

[xtremerancher02]

awww yea she had alil mud on her this weekend i'll post some pics up latter but there is one trail that is like at least 20" deep of mud and water and my big red aka Bertha beasted through it like nothing and no the dealer didn't take the nets off they can't but as soon as i loaded it i cut them off....lol

the rims are 14" ss108 blacks and the tires are 30" mudzillas 9/11 combo

[xtremerancher02]

well guys here is a few pics from yesterday and a few more goodies i did to my bike
i love this pic

after i went play for alil while

i got some hids installed if anyone wants to know how to put some in i took some step by step pics of it


got my snorkel ran




got the reverse rev. limiter installed

and lastly got the 4500lb venom put on

here is a pic of the rear lift

and the front lift

[Cenflrider]

Looks Great!
-Did you drive "Bertha" before you added the snorkel? If yes what was the noise level difference between having the intake stock and up height (by your right ear). Would it be possible for more pictures on this? I see you used 2 inch black PVC and the other rubber hoses are just your diff vents correct?
-Wheels / tires look great in the pictures, any clearance issues?
-Reverse speed limiter, very cool!
-Bertha, Great name! Can't call mine BR since its Camo the salesman called it Big Fred, it stuck.
