I have heard good things about Hunter Works.

I guess hunter works CDI is a dyna tech. It is priced good to

So, anybody with a stock CDI, I have an experiment for you. I thought I read somewhere that as you hit the rev limiter you can push the reverse override button to go past it.
Anybody ever try this before? I dont have a stock CDI in mine. I was wondering if this worked.

 

[Desertcat]

I will try it tonight on my way to the mail box. What kind of aftermarket CDI doyou have and give us all the details??????

 

[ArizonaProwler]

I have the one from Hunter Works. I believe it pretty much just gets rid of the limiter.

Did not get a chance to check it out this evening but I will in the morning. From what I read about the one from Hunter works, it improves starting, eliminates the need for override in reverse, gives you another 1k in RPM's. In your opinion was it a good investment?

 

[ArizonaProwler]

Yeah, I'm happy with it. I was hitting the rev-limiter all the time, and at the time I bought it, that was the only CDI availible.

 

[Desertcat]

did it help with starting after the bike sits for a few days?

I didnt notice any better starting.
IMO I think if the carb had an accelerator pump it would start better.

 

[Desertcat]

ok the results are in. Just took my prowler for a test ride. Running full out as approched the rev limiter I hit the reverse override button. And nothing happened. It may of not worked because my reverse override button has a mind of it's own.

I have the dynatech from Hunterworks. It runs a lot better in my opinion. Much snappier, better hot starting, no reverse limiter and have hit 57mph on my gps on a long stretch.

p.s. The reverse override trick don't work....tried it before and no worky!

 

[Desertcat]

Cool sounds like Hunter works it the ticket. What makes me wonder is Arctic Cat works with speed wrex and there aftermarket CDI is about $100 more. Is it worth the money???

 

[Cub]

Unless they have changed, the one they used to sell was just the ATV CDI which was all the same only with a higher rev-limiter....

 

[arcticfire333]

go with the hunter works i have used both

 

[Desertcat]

Thanks for the info

 

[Desertcat]

Anyone have more CDI info? It appears Dyna tech is the only option.
