    New Trooper Power Steering unit

    Thanks,

    By the way below is what response i got about you bringing your in to them.I am forwarding photos tonight after i take some.

    "I was just speaking with my owner. He says that he is not against bringing one in but first he wanted some pics. He recently had an Arctic Cat that he was interested in trying one on but quickly realized that there was absolutely no room with out trimming plastic. Take some images of the front by the rack and where the shaft comes down. We will take a close look at those images first before we try to get one in here."

    Just let me know what you need me to do

    street legal?

    in UTV General Discussion

    Posted

    Hello all,

    I was wanted to ask if UTVs are street legal in Pike County, Kentucky, or do they make a street legal kit? We just moved to Pike county a few months ago. I know in Mingo County, West Virginia you can ride them on the street as long as you have bought a Hatfield and McCoy trail pass and I live right on the border. I always see people riding their ATVs around and I was wondering if it was legal.

    Thanks

    Hear is what I found There is a phone number at the bottom # 4741 - KENTUCKY: ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLE (ATV) USE RULES

    Kentucky law:

    "All-terrain vehicle" means any motor vehicle for off-road use, which is fifty (50) inches or less in width; has a dry weight of six hundred (600) pounds or less; travels on three (3) or more low pressure tires; is designed for operator use only with no passengers; and has a seat or saddle designed to be straddled by the operator, and handle bars for steering control.

    The "Rules of the Road" for using ATVs include:

    • No person shall operate an all-terrain vehicle upon any public highway or roadway or upon the right-of-way of any public highway or roadway.
    • Exception: Persons may operate an ATV on any two-lane public highway, if the operator is engaged in farm or agricultural-related activities, construction, road maintenance, or snow removal. Persons not engaged in one of these activities may operate an ATV on any two-lane public highway in order to cross the highway, but may not travel on the highway for more than 2/10 of a mile.
    • Persons who operate an ATV on a public highway must have a valid operator's license and comply with all traffic regulations; must have at least one headlight and two taillights illuminated at all times; and may only operate the ATV during daylight hours, unless engaged in snow removal or emergency road maintenance.
    • <P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">No person shall operate an all-terrain vehicle on any public or private property without the consent of the landowner, tenant, or governmental agency responsible for the property, and unless the operator wears approved protective headgear, in the manner prescribed by the secretary of the Transportation Cabinet, at all times that the vehicle is in motion. The approved headgear requirement shall not apply when the operator of the all-terrain vehicle is engaged in:

      - Farm or agriculture related activities;

      - Mining or mining exploration activities;

      - Logging activities;

      - Any other business, commercial, or industrial activity; or

      - Use of that vehicle on private property.

    • The Transportation Cabinet may designate, and a city or county government may designate, those public highways, segments of public highways, and adjoining rights-of-way of public highways under its jurisdiction where all-terrain vehicles that are prohibited may be operated.
    • No person under the age of sixteen (16) years shall operate an all-terrain vehicle with an engine size exceeding ninety (90) cubic centimeters displacement, nor shall any person under the age of sixteen (16) years operate an all-terrain vehicle except under direct parental supervision.
    • No person under the age of twelve (12) years shall operate an all-terrain vehicle with an engine size exceeding seventy (70) cubic centimeters displacement.
    • A person cannot operate an all-terrain vehicle under this subsection unless the all-terrain vehicle has at least one headlight and two taillights, which must be illuminated at all times the vehicle is in operation.
    • A person operating an all-terrain vehicle under this subsection must restrict the operation to daylight hours, except when engaged in snow removal.

    New Joyner Distributor

    in Joyner UTV SxS Forum

    Posted

    This is posted on No Limits Powersports website... FYI "No Limits Powersports has been in business for 14 years buying and selling custom jeeps and offroad vehicles. We started doing all types of fab work and modifications on Jeeps and rock crawlers. The side by side market exploded a few years ago so we stepped in with Joyner off road vehicles. Joyner vehicles are a cut above the competition in performance, ride and value priced. We are now in the process of becoming a distributor for all Joyner vehicles. We currently have a huge parts inventory and we have (22) 2011 Troopers in transit and (30) Renegades on order. Call us first if you need a part, if we don't have it we will locate it for you."

    Great

    Read your plugs. If you look in Google, You will find charts with pictures showing different plug conditions and what they mean. 10.7 may be a bit rich. I would shoot for maybe 11.5 when accelerating hard and about 12.5 when you back off a bit. If your just crusing it should be more 14 to 15 with 14.7 being a complete burn ratio. Best power will be around 11-12 area. Like i say watch your plugs. If you run too rich you stand a chance of burning your valves even though you might get a bit extra power at low end buy being extra rich.

    Trooper Viper Custom Camshafts

    We have been using the sintered metal pads for about 1year or 1,000 miles and no big rotor wear.They are great on my renegade we don't use the brakes much.But when you want to stop they stop.We use synthetic break fluid stops faster and it takes the heat.The hotter they get the better they work.We are going to supercharge my Rengade first.We have a customer who we are going to work with on his trooper to supercharge his.So we are going to work on both of them at same time.Lenny is the one who started this whole thing.Now we are going to see what we can do with this set up and keep the price down to be affordable.

    Cam shafts shims and installation instruction are all most done.Plumber we are going to ship out your cams soon cant wait to see what you think.

    Thanks

    I drove Len's Trooper. I will say the SuperCharger is Killer, it makes his Trooper scream. I am not sold on the cams! It was nice driving a Trooper that does not have a rattle and rides like a caddy. Differently helped me prioritize my next upgrades, Steering Rack upgrade, softer springs & doors.
