02 canniball?

[HiperEX]

There is a dealer near me that just recently got a 02 dale in with fresh rebuilt motor, plastics are faded but everything esle seems good, they asking under 3grand , is there a way i can tell if it had updates? and how is the maintence on these, same as a yfz and 450r?

almost all dales should get a full motor teardown when purchased.
only way to tell if it has updates like the stage 8 is to open up the motor.
upkeep is way way more involved. oil needs changing constantly.
if you dont like working on your quad I would get something else. this is NOT a gas and go machine.

ok thanks ill keep my mind on the yfz still

[CannondaleRider]

They are AWSOME bikes though

Exhaust and Moto/Speed map or something, it will most likely beat a piped YFZ

Yes, they have there problems, but there easy to update. And if you think parts are hard to get for them, your wrong, its easy to get parts.

I would buy that bike over a YFZ anyday

Go to Cannondaleriders.com for more info, and to learn about the updates

i would get the dale if i were you, ive owned and rode some fast quads including a crf450 and yz426 hybrids.The dale is a work of art, good handling and fast as hell.

then again, oil will also need changed constantly on a yfz or 450r, NO race bike is a gas and go bike

ok thanks guys i feel more confident about the dale, but i dont want to have to go through all teh troubles with it, they run on 87-93 octane gas right? if only i had my sled sold id have it right now

you might wanna get the highest octane you can, VP C12 isn't required or anything, but....you know


Have a SMALL airport near you? Av is 100 Octane

try to PM a guy named Wistech on c-daleriders he may be close enough to you to go look at it with you, he knows his stuff about them

I run sunoco 94 in mine but cannondale was gettting the best HP numbers off of 87 octaine there is no need to run race gas in these motors!
