    Racing Rincons

    I've seen them at Unadilla GNCC and at the Atlantic Grand Prix series. Any one racing them here and what have you done to it?

    Ive got a 680 pretty much ready for XC, Just working on getting the rider ready! ~lol
    Was there anything in particular you wanted to know?

    Basically the Rincon out handles any other utility in the woods IMHO, But does lack the power when compared to other machines.

    I found in the performance department there is really not a whole lot more you can do and continue to focus on over all Handling. Ive custom set up a steering damper added lower profile tires (Al Trac's) tire balls and elka elites.

    Rincons

    I've got an "03" so it's a 650. I'm racing an "04" 450r in the AGP series,and my rincon only gets used for plowing snow and family rides when I can't ride fast. So I was thinking I could run some PA harescrambles with the Rincon and not beat the 450 in to the ground in 2 separate series.

    How has you machine done and what series or venues? I also noticed alot of ute's with beadlocks w/Bighorns.

    I haven't been able to race my Rincon yet, for medical reasons. But raced a few Pa. harescrambles and a GNCC on a Prairie back in 04.
    A guy that I ride with has run his Rincon in the AGP and took a first and the only thing he has done is Beadlocks and Big Horns. Not a bad upgrade at all if you cant swing the tire balls$$.
    Ive always run the Big horns and like the tire, But found I like the lighter al trac's better and instead of Beadlocks I'm sportin ring wheels.

    the fuel injection works good for you then riding it around? Some people around where i live have problems with that and have to get it tweeked to get it working right. Overall, how would you rate it. I am thinking about switching from the 400ex to the rincon 680.

    I've got just about 2000 hard miles on my Rincon 680 and have not had any problems with the EFI. I have also done some Dyno testing with the Dynatech Controller and set the machine up one weekend with a Big Gun Exhaust and the controller dials in fuel delivery perfectly. (More Then likely I put it back on for XC racing.) I can own any quad I want and for now I'm sticking with the Rincon 680

    Hey Zack, you mind giving me the phone number or name of that local Shop. I'm interested in talking to them. Ive done a few things but haven't really be able to really wake the Rincon up all that much in the performance department?

    Thanks Coop
