I just got my trail tech endurance. Was wondering if there was a place to go that had all the wheel mesurements done already if not what was the dimensions you put in and for what tire size.

you will have to measure YOUR tire size...even with same size tires, size varies a little...i have the vapor on my 450r and the endurance on my 400ex, both have 22" front tires, but both have different tire sizes...it made a difference

ya i know i run 3 different wheel sizes. 22 trail, 21 sand & 20 MX. I just thought if people had the mesurements we/they could start posting the numbers wheel size and brand of tire.

it still wouldn't help...air pressure makes a difference too...i measured mine with the same amount of air in that i always run...

to do what you want, the database would be huge, just imagine having a size for every type of tire in every size in .10 increments...and that doesn't take into account my original problem...

i could be running 22" razr 2's on both my bikes, with both having 5.0 lbs of pressure in them. one may have a measurement of 1650 while the other one comes in at 1660...that would be enough to throw off the computer

stock 400ex rear tires arent exactly 20" like they say they are 19.5" On the other hand 20" razr are exactly 20" but maxxis razr fronts arent the exact size. what does the trailtech cpu d anyway? enhance the power curve?

it is s speedo...it uses the tire height to compute distance, speed, etc...

Remember, you need to be sitting on the quad too when you do the measurement.

It mounts on the handle bars or Trail tech also sells a dashboard protector. The wheel motion sensor is mounted to the right front knuckle assembly and one of the brake rotor bolts is replaced with a magnetic bolt. It takes less than 30 minutes to install and it's great for tracking ride time, distance, MPH and top speed.

They are durable, easy to install, and worth every penny spent. I like being able to track my current speed, top speed, miles, and time ridin. It's great for tracking maintainance and oil intervals and even has programmable reminders for each. I've become so used to having it that I don't know how I survived with out it.

i have a vapor(450r) and a endurance(400ex)...if that tells you anything...

they are really durable, just don't drop it on the cement floor and then step on it. they are easy to install, although the vapor is a little more complex...the hardest part was drilling the spindle.

as far as top speed accuracy...i am not 100% sold on them but i dind

I just installed the Vapor but I have not road tested it yet seams the RPM jump around a lot, what is the top speed you have seen?

I won't lie, the wind was behind me. Mods at the time of the top speed were 15F/39R sprockets, stock motor, advanced timing key, UNI filter, EHS racing lid, Rejetted Carb and stock rims and tires. It's pretty scarey going that fast on a quad.

Just came back from the dirt, I recorded only 50 MPH on my bike, but I was not trying very hard and the road was bumpy I am sure I can hit 60+ on a smooth road if I push it, I don't have many performance Mods.

PS I was joking about the wind
