Well gonna go on a nice ride saturday with the viking. We are goin to rush offroad park in rush Kentucky. Really lookin forward to puttin the viking through its paces. I run it through some pretty good stuff at home but ill be in the mountains Saturday. Should tell me what I wanna improve on more. Cant wait!! Will get pics and hopefully some video.
Yea show us some video once you get back. i'd love to see how the Viking does out in the wild. I also don't really know what to expect from the landscape in Kentucky. Is it all flat there, or are there some hills and valleys for you to climb?
Kentucky is right smack in the Appalachian mountains. Theres plenty of mountains and hills and valleys. Im ablr ti push the viking more now. Break in complete and oil is freshly changed this morning. With the 27" xtrs my viking will only run 48mph top end. In need of a clutch kit.
The viking behaved awesome!! So happy with how it did. There was some pretty nasty hills. I could have used some more power on a few of the long steep ones. Low range helped on the ones I had time to stop and put it in on. The ones I hit in high I used all of it. 20mph at most but with what they were thats to be expected. The rzr thst was with us had to put in low even on them to. I had it articulated out and teetering pretty good to. Took my boy out when I did that of course.
