    Red Pipes

    Hi Group!

    I have a 2000 Honda TRX 400 with at 440 Big Bore kit..

    Started it up today, let it idle for about a minute, maybe minute and a half and the pipes were glowing red.

    Is this common, as it happened to anyone else??

    What could cause it to run so hot? Anything I could do to prevent this?
