GiO Rebel T3 Mods
Just finished a few new mods on the T3:
Performance CDI, Uni filter, and Mikuni carb rejetted to 110 main & 25 pilot (thanks waynev). Handlebar RAM mount for the Garmin Oregon and el-cheapo tach/hour meter from eBay. Performance Shocks and LED high beam. I've ordered up the low beams but they haven't arrived. |

Excellent professional work. Has that ATV ever see a speck of dirt? It looks immaculate!

I wish we had decent light housings to work with on our Beasts. Instead, I plan to install tractor style lights from Princess Auto, because they use a low wattage bulb, they're encased in rubber, they have a stud mount and they look kinda cool. They're similar to Baja style lights that you'd see on a rollbar. Not bad for $6.00.
Excellent work durango360. Your quad looks great.

I did work the oil into the foam pretty well but after a bit of research, I now see that it's thinner and will eventually work its way down to the bottom of the filter. |

It's a PITA, but the oil for foam filers is thick and sticky as hell, but hey that's what makes it keep the dirt out, i usually pour some of the oil in to a bag and then squish the filter around the get it all covered, then i wear latex gloves when i have to handle it after that, also remember to do both layers of your UNI filter.

I had that blue sticky crap everywhere when I did mine for the YZ.
W&G has this slick stuff in a can that sprays out and makes it less messy. I've yet to find it in the store myself though. |

Bel-Ray http://www.belray.com/bel-ray-foam-filter-oil Maxima http://www.moto-man.com/Maxima-Fab-1...il_p_1044.html It seems odd that the maxima says it for fabric or foam filters, in my experience they need two totally different oils, hmmmm. I see UNI also has spray oil http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/pr...dFamilyId=6788 |

All Maxima Fab1, all the time.
I've found it at a few local bike shops, but I have a real soft spot for Gnarly Parts. http://gnarlyparts.ca/product_info.p...ducts_id=30548

That's funny. Today I was trying to remember how I ever learned about them, and it was from you.
Excellent shop. Nice shop dogs too.
