Bazz,
You don't need a sled powered pilot with 1 place and 2 place finishes now do ya? Ha Ha. *Looks like fun!! *I really like the way your 500 looks, the front nose cover in particular. *With my large stretch on the Rage Pilot maybe that is the route I should take, expecially with the plastics getting harder and harder to find.

Wayne

G'Day Sicksand,I don't want to offend or cause any hoo har here,but when I first drove it down my local illegal ride area,I was really dissapointed, fighting the steering for straight- ness,marching down the road(left right)this I learned was Bump steer!
Then when started racing at Northam,I was losing a few seconds each turn(ploughing ahead)from what I learned was understeer.Even took out a small tree on one of the bends.
I'm SURE all this is due to steering adjustments,which I have little knowledge of.I need to find a local steering guru who can set this thing set up correctly.Trouble is,here in Perth the guru's are limited with this type of ride.When it does get sorted,can you imagine the track times falling.
It's an ATV Racing LT and is well built! Just need to adjust it. I notice on full left hand turns,the right wheel is turning more than the left plus with posi camber is scrubbing on the outside of the tyre instead of pushing off the inside.I have looked at how to adjust it,but without doing it properly,I'll affect something else
It's great for the dune jumps etc,sits high and very plush ride.
I'm happy with it all,just dissapointed that I don't have the knowledge to adjust it myself.
I'm one of those that likes to do his own work...so long as i know how or is that CHEAP

Thats a cool looking pilot ,i like the hood.

Only suggestion i can make is to try a set of stock pilot wheels.The guys i know with pilots say they steer for S@#T with after market (wrong offset) wheels.

Also, try calling atv and ask them for some recommendations on setting up the front end ,they should know better than anybody.
