Good idea, but by the time i buy both of those i could just get an FMF. Hmmm decitions decitions...
In the high performance beast pipe is there any way to make it less restrictive? Off topic but do the performance shocks that gio sells, are they any good (worth the money). |

The short answer is no, you can't easily make the Beast pipe flow. It just looks pretty.
The Gio shocks topic will bring varied opinions. If you can get 'em for cheap, just enjoy them for what they are. You can get them charged up at bike shops or tire shops with nitrogen for cheap. What do your front shocks look like?

There just the stock black and white ones. Nothing special.

It looks like they don't have gas reservoirs. Are they decent shocks, or are they pogo sticks? Do they have any adjustability?

Just an ordinary shock surrounded but a stiff coil. No adjustibility. Have you had any experiance with the performance gio shocks?

Indirectly. TurboT and Jim both bought some. They leaked, but they were a really good price, and they were far better than the stock shocks. The shocks that came with our first generation Beasts were awful.

Is the exhaust from the Giobeast or T3 Atv similar to any major atv manufactors(Spelling?) like Honda or Can-Am, because i could buy an exhaust for that Atv and put it on mine.
Thanks |

is this high performance enough exhaust for you all?
Edited for content. Family friendly. :wink: Aw come on that was family friendly, who has not seen a hairy overweight butt with a horexhaust sticking out of it before? I've lived a very sheltered live and I am sure everyone over the age of 6 has these days. LOL

working on my ATV tonight I found I have a hole in the first bend of my pipe before it gets to the muffler.
Guess I have to take it off and do some more welding. Schucks darn!!

At least you can weld! I have to resort to muffler glue .
Mental note: Learn to weld.
