Matt Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Doo should post a vid of a turbo and non turbo drag racing up at Tog, then doing a hillclimb side by side. The additional track speed afforded by the higher HP will be hugely obvious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for a fact poo has had one in the works for a few years now. My guess it will be similar in performance and be released this spring.

I've been well up many of them on my 02 Summit and 05 King. Nothing gets the old ticker going faster than realizing you better turn the fuck around. Been right under the cliffs on this one before. Guy was killed there last year or the year before. Got a video of the climb somewhere. Yah, we were on the plateau to the right. If you look close you can see the tracks up higher. That's where I said no go. If you got off track to the left, I could be very bad/ Thats about 3000' drop/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on much steeper out there but this was is pretty long as well. Could have slapped the cliff with my hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have gotten 170-180 NA hp out of it at a similar rpm as the apex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just modify the chassis to show horn it in. The Apex motor or The Rotax ? The Rotax 1200 was co-built and designed with Petronas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No good riding at all. Haven't ridden out there since '08 or '09 but I imagine every Johnny Boondocker is out there these days and it's harder to find true untracked play areas. We found some total gems back in the day. I really miss it. Mostly stuck to the meadows and gullies though.

Same with here. But you'll have faggots here trying to buy them. You already have retards on FB talking about tunes and cheating the system they have. They'd be the crying like little bitches when their warranty got denied Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
