Tip for doing grips : Poke a small hole, if there isn't already one from the factory, in the end of the grip, and use an air sprayer to blow air into the grip while you slide it on. Goes on in seconds

@cadman9615 2 года назад

I’ve done this, works like a charm.

Just a tip for checking if woodruff key is snapped.. set the time mark to t, then use a long screwdriver down the plug thread to see if piston is at top, saves stripping the flywheel off

@JoshX9 2 года назад

My brother had an 03 Predator with high comp piston, Hot cams, pro com CDI. and that was single handily the craziest ATV ive ever ridden. There was no end to the top speed it just kept going and if you werent careful it would pull up all the way through 4th gear. We topped his out at 98 but it was still going i just didn't want to go that fast on an atv lol we figured it would do 100+ if given the room.

@Bandito071 2 года назад

Now is that really true ?

@racequad9 2 года назад

@@Bandito071 I doubt it. Not trying to be rude, but unless he had some crazy gearing on it, I bet it didn't even break 85mph

@JoshX9 2 года назад

@@Bandito071 Yes it is absolutely true. We raced against my raptor 660 which topped out around 70 and he just kept going so we used a speedo to test it. I’d say I’d prove it but the rear blew up and sent him into a tree one day While riding.

@topdogmechanic8261 2 года назад

hair spray on the inside of handle grips and line them up and take the palm of your hand and hit the ends of the grips they will just slide right on. next way is use compressed air use air gun and shoot air in under it while you are pushing the grips on they will slide on.. just an extra tip of the day..

@calebwilhelm528 2 года назад

If you use an air compressor blow bit inside the grip and then push it is super easy to put them on

@oldvintagebikes5667 2 года назад

If those grips had little air holes in the end of them you could of gotten them on with a air compressor sometimes with lube they be evil little things to get on I've had great luck with air they taught me that trick way back in the bike shop lol anyhow love the videos brotha

@davebarrowcliffe1289 2 года назад

Don't use lube. In hot weather, when the plastic softens, they can turn. When putting them on, use ladies hair spray. Hair lacquer. Works as lube on the way on, but acts as light glue once it dries. Compresed air pops them right on like the other guy said. 🙂👍
