ATVriders.com's Ken Hill reveiws Propper A-TACS AU Pattern Tactical / Hunting clothing aboard a Kawasaki Brute Force 700 Utility ATV. "I had been searching for a new pattern that I could try when I noticed an image of a fellow photographer who was sent a set of Propper brand clothing in their A-TACS AU pattern. I decided to take a chance that this pattern would work well for me and ordered a set for myself.
ATVriders.com recently received a box of new 2013 riding gear from Fly Racing. Inside the package were a couple pairs of riding gear from their new 2013 Fly Racing Riding Gear line including the new F-16 and over the boot Patrol riding gear. Each set featured Fly’s unique styling and design features.
In
Part two of our Kawasaki Teryx 750 4x4 UTV / SxS
build we upgrade to aftermarket tires and wheels
from DWT. This tire and wheel combination not
only added a more aggressive look to the UTV but
it also improved the overall handling of the Kawasaki
Teryx 750.
In
anticipation of our 2011 racing season, we were
offered the chance to try out the new cross country
based tire from Maxxis on our project Yamaha YFZ
450X. At first glance, I could tell they had indeed
been paying attention to what the top racers in
the GNCC series had been doing to their own tires
as the tread pattern now almost mimicked the custom
grooving found throughout the pits of the countries
top racers.
Houser racing seems to always offer up products that feature something either a step ahead of the industry or bring to market new ideas in their products that serve function as well as form. We received a set of their new "Pro Bounce" nerf bars to use on our 2010 Yamaha YFZ450X
Our project
Suzuki LTR 450R has been serving us well over these
many months since it fell into the role of test
mule for ATVRiders.com We had in a previous article
installed the Cherry Bomb and removed the baffle
from the exhaust to pick up some more horsepower. In addition we added the Yoshimura PIM-2 & DATA EFI Controller Box to gain even more bolt on horsepower
The Kawasaki KFX 450R ATV has been earning respect
on the track and trail as a potent package in stock
form that meets the needs of many riders today.
Ofcourse if you are a racer at heart or just want
to build your self one bully of a machine, it is
an excellent starting platform for one to turn into
a beast.
For us, FLY Racing gear has always been a top performer
over the years and when this season was about
to get underway, we turned to them for an order
of their gear that had us hoping would last all
season.
Before
purchasing the Tech 7 boots, I have been already
wearing a pair of Tech 6 boots for 2 years. From
the outside, there is little difference from the
two, with the newer Tech 7 having some vents above
the ankle. Comfort and fit is snug, but not stiff.
ITP
Tires has been at the forefront in the ATV/UTV
tire market and for good reason, their tires
work! Whether you are a racer or a trail-riding
enthusiast, you can bet ITP has a tire to
fit your needs. The new Terra Cross RT was
offered to us for a review, and we couldn't
wait to mount them on our Outlander 500

There
has been there has been a limited selection

first time trackside at Round 5 of the WORCS

in getting some feed back on there
new complete front suspension system.
We were very interested in trying
out this setup to see how well it
would perform against the other aftermarket
suspension products that we sell.

If you ride for any extended period
of time with any OEM clutch lever, you
will find it becomes very difficult
to operate at the end of the day. We
spent a year experimenting with different
clutch levers to find the one that was
the easy to pull. How did the RTC levers
perform? Read the full Review!
Sure it is pricey, but the bottom line is that
this system should last a rider a very long
time, and give them the security that only
the Sidewinder name can offer. Check out the
full story on this unique ATV Chain and Sprocket
kit. Read the full Review!
You do not have to be a shock technician nor
do you need special tools to install this
kit. Place the shock in a vice, back the preload
off completely and remove the bottom spring
retainer. Read the full Review!
After some research I settled on +1 arms from
Herrmann Racing. I gained a little width for
stability, and also adjustable camber.. They
offer the arms powdercoated any color you
could possibly dream of, so it was easy to
get a set that matched my freshly powdercoated
gloss black frame. Read the full Review!
