Love all your videos with in depth and detailed installations. Seen in this video you relocated the ignition. Did you make a video on that? Looking to re-route my ignition sonic can install a Trail Tech GPS.

[@trailblogger]

Yes I used a blowtorch and a hot socket on the end of an extension to poke a hole. Very fast and easy. Watch the video where I installed the Renthal Raptor Bend handlebars

It is more about the engine running properly, too much air can cause a lean condition which means lots of heat

I have a question that has nothing to do with the video but about the rev limiter and though well maybe someone can explain I see these stock raptor and they hit their rev limiter and makes that cool noise if you know what I mean. When I hit mine it just sounds like the rpms are to high no revlimiter noise just the rpms getting louder ! Is their something wrong with my raptor ? It’s a 2019 se

What would make 2000 warrior with HMF slip on make popping noise?

[@trailblogger]

Running rich or lean, out of tune. Or an air leak in the intake causing a super lean condition.

[@trailblogger]

@@johnsayman2271 sorry I've never tuned a zoom zoom carb, does it have a fuel meter like a lectron carb or is it jetted? Does it run any better with the choke on? If it does that means that it's on the lean side and needs more fuel. If the popping continues with the choke on even it may be too rich and you need to lean up your tune with less fuel

[@chrisrieger9201]

Can you install the block pop stop if you only have oem exhaust system/pipe

[@trailblogger]

yes it just blocks off the air port up there. aftermarket pipe is not required.

[@Dtown559]

Does the pop mess up your quad?? I kinda like it to be honest

[@trailblogger]

a slight pop is ok but these things come tuned very lean from the factory which can make them run hotter than needed and it is already 110F here in the summer. Adding more fuel to richen the mixture with a proper tune helps make the bike run smoother. the AIS injects extra air into the system. I don't care so much about the pop as I do about it running correctly. backfires can be a sign of too much fuel or not enough fuel in some cases

@@bigstevegapping6315 raptor more torque off the line and overall HP. Yfz450 better handling and overall mid range performance with weight taken into consideration. Yfz is more race oriented while the raptor is considered a recreation trail machine. Both machines can be modified for drag, dune, street riding depending on what you want.
