Those decals will all power wash right off. Lol.

Putting a Torq Locker in already? Maybe I should get one ordered so I can keep up with you.
Hopefully the others last a little while. My Pioneer stickers have stayed on and they are shredded, lol

Probably throw the locker in after the first ride, so you've still got a little while :)

Great looking buggy. The blue color really pops !!! I agree with JenElio on the 4 point harness. Any safety addition (like a harness) to your Talon 1000R Live Valve safer is a good investment. You gonna get the lower door panels?

Almost forgot the most important mod:

View attachment 311622
I have that same mod on my race car. It's good for at least 5hp as is, but if you removed the restrictor plate before applying the mod to your ride, it can be good for 14hp or more depending on what other mods you have to go along with it.

Why do you think my race car was so fast last year?

We really need a friendly flipoff emoji around here... :flipoff2:

🤣🤣🤣

SuperATV tinted rear windshield is on. Really easy install and fits great.

Think I will change out the bolt on the upper bracket that replaces the factory roof hex head bolt with a thumbscrew. It would be a tool-less removal/install after the initial installation at that point.
