Hey,

retail is $895, and any dealer caught selling below retail will be dropped from Elka. so if you indeed buy them at that price you either recieved a price break for sponsorship, or the retailer is cutting dealer prices.

i guess im lucky mine are zps also which is even more! lol i got them from ebay acually they are brand new in the box acually elka is valving them as we speak the place is called atv parts in like long beach or sumtin like that?

yep mine are also ssd.

the largest retailer on ebay was just busted by elka and now has re adjusted thier pricing. i like low prices as well as the next guy, but under cutting a real atv shop and selling from the garage is kind of a low blow to them and very risky for the buyer if there is a problem.

pipe it, leave the air filter lid on, throw some suspension on it, and hang on:devil:

the biggest tip i have was relayed to me by Bsturdivant, and it has to do with the 2 carb vents at the rear of the carb. they tend to suck in alot of dirt and need to have small filters installed

Thanks for sharing the tip on the carb vents. Any input on where to find filters?

any auto parts store will have the small vent filters, my honda dealer stocks them also so they shouldnt be hard to find.
