Excellent professional work. Has that ATV ever see a speck of dirt? It looks immaculate! :D

I wish we had decent light housings to work with on our Beasts. Instead, I plan to install tractor style lights from Princess Auto, because they use a low wattage bulb, they're encased in rubber, they have a stud mount and they look kinda cool. They're similar to Baja style lights that you'd see on a rollbar. Not bad for $6.00.

Excellent work durango360. Your quad looks great. :D

Outstanding job! Love the lights and the computer gizmos!

Time to get it dirty! :)

Not quite yet.....that UNI filter looks too clean to function properly, did you oil it yet, it doesn't look like it yet in the pic ( or maybe it's just the blue foam filter oil i use ).

I used the K&N filter oil and its red so it looks like it hasn't been oiled.

I did muddy it up pretty good a few times but I've washed it up shortly afterward...damn obsessive-compulsive disorder :D

Very good then, i take it that you used the stuff for foam filters?, as the regular stuff is for fabric filters and will not help on the foam type filters.

Oops, I guess not...never read the spray can. It was leftover from a pleated fabric filter that I had on my last vehicle. Thanks for picking that up.

I did work the oil into the foam pretty well but after a bit of research, I now see that it's thinner and will eventually work its way down to the bottom of the filter.

It's a PITA, but the oil for foam filers is thick and sticky as hell, but hey that's what makes it keep the dirt out, i usually pour some of the oil in to a bag and then squish the filter around the get it all covered, then i wear latex gloves when i have to handle it after that, also remember to do both layers of your UNI filter.

I had that blue sticky crap everywhere when I did mine for the YZ.

W&G has this slick stuff in a can that sprays out and makes it less messy. I've yet to find it in the store myself though.

The Bel-Ray stuff ?, that's what i use too, i see Amsoil has some in a spray can too, i'm pretty W&G was using the Maxima spray oil.

Bel-Ray http://www.belray.com/bel-ray-foam-filter-oil
Maxima http://www.moto-man.com/Maxima-Fab-1...il_p_1044.html

It seems odd that the maxima says it for fabric or foam filters, in my experience they need two totally different oils, hmmmm. I see UNI also has spray oil http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/pr...dFamilyId=6788

All Maxima Fab1, all the time.

I've found it at a few local bike shops, but I have a real soft spot for Gnarly Parts. http://gnarlyparts.ca/product_info.p...ducts_id=30548

They should be giving me commission off you. :)

Weldangrind 12-02-2010 01:58 AM

That's funny. Today I was trying to remember how I ever learned about them, and it was from you. :lol:

Excellent shop. Nice shop dogs too. :D
