damn good deal, im jealous.. i want new shocks, but got to deal with this exhaust stuff.. i was up last looking at videos for the sound of it. but man people dont realize when you do exhaust sound videos.. the exhaust has 2 different sounds.. if you sit there and video it idling and revving it sounds one way, but the real sound is what it sounds like when there is a load placed on the motor.. wish more people woud include a video of them driving the atv then every one else would know what the exhaust truely sounds like..

i dont think you are going to find any cf name brand mufflers.. i know the auto parts stores around my town sell carbon fiber wrap.. dont think i a muffler would get hot enough to burn it off. but you could just wrap it your self..

its a hmf powder coated black muffler.. it looks clean as hell.. but it is pricey..

but like i said above, you could buy some carbon fiber wrap and if you take your time you can wrap the muffler and have it look really good. esp round mufflers, they would be the easiest ones to wrap

i like the looks of the fist 2, but the can it self seems to be on the short side.. might look a little odd..

this video is the fmf power core 4, i am getting the 2 stroke version of it so its called the power core 2.. but should sound something like this video

well i had hoped to get my fmf pipe this weekend, but it seems the postal service is a tad bit retarded.. the pipe shipped out of mesa arizona, i checked the tracking number today since it was shipped yesterday.. they sent it to bell, ca and now its on its way to texas, wtf ? they sent it 447ish miles the wrong direction to a sorting facility just to turn around and send it back through arizona then to texas..

:twisted: Update :twisted:

look what came in the mail yesterday



new gio air shock

i was happy that the shipping was fast and how the shock look but i am a littel worried about them. as i was getting them ready to bring up north to install on my beast, i went to check the the air pressure one of the shock readed 0 psi and the other read 24 psi. so i remove the little valve and found that it was jammed, so i replaced and now it works, then on the second shock as i lowed the psi the SAME thing happened. i fix it and now bought shock are at 8 pis each. should i tell GIO that i got 2 defected shocks??

Don't worry about them not holding pressure, i've got 3 pairs of them and they all leak out eventually, but they still work 200% better than the stockers, when i'm at my buddies i usually use his nitrogen tank to fill them to 120psi, the best pair after 1.5 weeks will be back at 0.

Did you charge them up to around 100psi and then see if it will hold that pressure?

They may offer you another set for a small fee plus shipping, but really you'll probably end up with the same thing you already have, these shocks work soooooo much better than stock even without the adjustable compression dampning, so just bolt on them and run em'.

These shocks have a nitrogen filled "air bag" so you can adjust the compression dampning by adjusting the amount of nitrogen pressure in them, like i said my first pair was bad, payed GIO more to get a new set, the new set didn't leak as fast but they still did, then i got one of the new sets gold shock/black spring like the ones in the pic above, these held pressure the longest but eventually it leaks out, but they work so much better than stock that i don't even check the pressure anymore, they are just fine for me on my Beast.
