Last week Wednesday I took delivery of my new 525xc quad. Started to break in the engine on Thursday evening and went out to the desert on Friday morning 05:00. The fog was so thick that for about 15 minutes we did not have a clue where we were going! We played on some pretty high dunes for 45 mins or so before the heat forced us back to the cars. 8:00 and the temperature was a nice 37°C.
The quad has tremendous power and gave me a couple of times a wake up call. The only mods so far on the quad is a FMF ezoost. Mods to follow is replacing the thumb throttle with a wrist throttle as I cannot get to grips with a smooth ride using just my thumb. On order is a high velocity water pump impeller to help keep the temp down and also an oil cooler.
As the season starts in September, I have a couple of months to get myself in shape. At the moment I need more saddle time then mods.
I will post pics as I progress.
