Take a look on my website for some new videos. The videos are of the Ross trip and riding around Warren. I beat on my Brute pretty bad in the Warren videos, its tough as nails, no matter what people say about them.
The videos have no music and are of greater quality than my last one. I split the one hour video up into 8 parts and removed parts that people don't need to see.
Let me know how you like them, I'm always trying to improve my videos.
Well BB, I don't know what to tell you........that Polaris sure did an impressive job in those videos.............Nacho has done a few more mods since i've rode with him, and they obviously have paid off.....
That Kawi is going to need a little more plumbing to keep up to Nacho.......hopefully this doesn't lead to the battle grounds. There's some pretty good backup for the Poos'.
All in all, it looks like you guys had fun. That 750 sounds awesome!!! Except for the stalling...:bigeyes: :bigeyes: :bigeyes:

WOW Great Video's :humbs:
Thank you Brent for posting them. You did an excellent job taking the video's:rockin:
JB.........your right, we polaris guys just proved that the heavy weight helps us in head light pod deep water. the Sportsman's don't want to float wheels up like the competition. this allows us too keep our wheels propelling us along. Even if the other Guy's add a couple of feet more snorkle, there quad will still roll over when it gets deep. I am not trying to pick a fight, just an observation.

Hey Brent, awesome video's. Are you the guy in the yellow rain slicker? I like that camo BF I want one, any recomendations?
I have a set of 28 x 10 zilla's on Yamaha rims I know the bolt pattern is the same I hope the spacing works too. Do you think the 28 will fit without rubbing?
Also do you have a chip in it because that thing looks like it has power to spare, I don't necessarily need top end but with big rubber, all that power would sure come in handy WOW!
Who is the fella on the V force ....... he is a good rider ....... a bit NUTTY but sure was fun watching the video.
Thanks
Chris

I was really surprised to see nacho play in that deep of water but his plumping is not 100%, yet. Like all plumpers they have have a crack but in this case, not where you might think. nacho is taking water into his belt housing, once thats fixed he will be able to let that quad sit in water over night and it would still be running, lol.
That stalling on my quad is something I did I think, its either my carb vent lines or two plugs that I didn't tape off correctly. I think its my carb lines though, going to look at it later on this week.
Thats me in the yellow rain slicker, the guy on the V-Force is one of Bakes friends from school. He is pretty crazy sometimes, he'll try just about anything.
28" tires will not rub when turning but will rub on the rear mud guards on the fender if your riding hard, thats if the offset is more than stock. Stock offset with 28" tires do not rub. I have a CDI, clutch kit and removed my engine braking. I have a ton of power now, its nuts. I floor it in the mud because it looks better on camera, lol. You don't have to and sometimes having the hammer down is counter productive.
After looking at my video I think the reason why I flipped over in the water is because:
-I did a water wheelie
-There was a steep incline that the quad was half touching on the bottom.
Add those two things up and over I go, the quad is great in deep water I just need to settle down and drive it like Nacho........slow.
EDIT: If you can take your 28" mudzillas on the Griz rims and try one out on the right rear of a friends brute or at a dealership, my only concern is it might rub on the gas tank with stock offset and those tires. If they do rub you will need spacers or new rims.

I forgot to glue one of my joints on the intake side of my belt snorkle:1oops: . I was very concerned that when my headlite pod went under the water that the 12v accessory outlet would short out and the quad would die.....But it kept going :humbs:
Hey Bertram, the reason I go SLOW ,is I don't have enough power to go any faster :joker:
Seriously, I am having jetting problems now. I am still way too lean and trying to track down bigger jets. I have a 172.5 and I need bigger. If anyone has some bigger ones , let me know please.
Brent's brute is very fast and is a blast to watch him drive it. I drove a stock one a few weeks ago and was very impressed.
Kawi did a great job
:humbs:

Have you tried limiting the amount of air going into your snorkles? Test to see if your getting to much air or not, put your have over a snorkle while driving and if it gets better than you have to much air if it gets worse to much fuel.
I would try limiting the amount of air. I can't seem to get enough air in to my snorkles while you get to much, lol. Strange.

I can flip the top to face forward or backwards, as I am going full thottle I moved it to face forward,as it started to face forward the rpm's started to drop,turn it back toward me and the rpm climbed, according to my plug I am still running lean, I covered the tube with a nylon and it helped but plug still indicates that I am lean. I had to richen up my idle screw just to make it idle, I probable will have to go to a bigger low speed jet too.
If I can't get some bigger jets I can drill out some of my old ones or put tape over my intake, I would prefer too get a bigger jet.........more fuel in makes more power :humbs:

Try an artic cat dealer for huge jets, for some reason the artic cats seem to run really big jets.
