A little update, after breaking it in through tackett and royal blue.
First 100 miles were a little underwhelming do to the shifting ect. At 127 miles it was a night and day difference for the better, obviously used to this with the Pioneer before break in. And like clockwork it relaxed big time. Must be a preset in the break in because it felt like it was powershifting and really jumpy even with the big tires. But it went away and is lovely to drive. Its got all the power ill need. It rolled through the boulders and rocks with ease. Suspension works good, stiff at first then started breaking in/settling out.
I love the machine very little heat. Everyone was comfortable, can cruise down blacktop at 74 like your in a car.
I-4wd works really well, its not a locker, but has benefits that seem to outweigh the negatives, like you can still steer in really difficult situations to line up on obstacles better.
Powersteering could be stronger.
Looking for some more forgiving sway bar links.
Milage appears to be a lot better than my pioneer. May have something to do with @snuffandwhiskey tune! But it's a solid rig that should last me and my boys a long time.

Well time to start a new build thread!
Just purchased a new talon x4. Id appreciate any pointers on the must haves or must do's. Ive got the warrior snorkel coming. Thinking about just the half windshield for now. I like it on the Pioneer that way.

I'm turning this thing into a goldwing by the time I'm done. Absolutely loving the machine it's a great trail rig about 900 miles now.
