We install an Alba airbox spacer on Mike's YXZ! He's already got their exhaust, flywheel, and a tune. Let's see how it does in a drag against a stock X3!!

Doug whats your thoughts on the Yamaha compared to polaris after the spring swap ? Seems the Yamaha holds its own after a few mods.
@SXSBlog6 жыл бұрын
The springs helped significantly but it still isn't as good as an XP1k for ride quality. Maybe with a good re-valve job it would be there?

Though I would have liked to see a touch more radar gun results for comparison - Overall Awesome review guys. I just bought one of these myself and it's nice to hear it wasn't a waste of cash (I'm trying to get my power pumped up in the middle/top RPMS for pulling nasty hills in second gear since Tube works literally laughed at me when I requested a %15-20 lower second gear to better compliment my gear kit 1st gear) Did you guys read any of the reports on YXZTalk and forum about these spacers leaking on certain people? Alba seem to validate the concern and said they were gonna start sending o-rings with the kit that were OEM quality instead of the other vendor they were using at the time (guess the Yamaha ones were a softer Duro) and felt that should solve the issue? I'm gonna use o-ring assembly grease on mine I think to help seal everything up but I wanted to know your/Doug's thoughts on it.
@SXSBlog6 жыл бұрын
Yeah we were aware of that, my guess is that it may be partially caused by people not getting the cover & spacer fully seated / tightened during install. With that style screw and how tough some are to get at, it's easy to say "good enough" when some may not be completely tight.
