last time i checked the flag was red white and blue. not a bad color combo. made in America well almost :face-icon-small-ton

I talked with them and they acted like the turbo install wasn't going to happen for a few weeks so probably at the next show.
When I saw those red skis laying on the table I was really hoping they weren't going to put them on the sled.
I thought the Yamaha booth was a lot better than last year. They were pushing their stuff a lot more.

No surprise at all if the sled gets finished at the Boise Show in November

At least they decided to use real boards this time
Hope they replace the missing hardware..
some of the trim
it's not just white
it's not just white
They are really gonna like how the Skinz front end works on that chassis.
Having ridden the stock front end on an 1100 for 3 years, an 1100 with Skinz front end and Raptors for a winter, and time on a stock Viper, imo the stock Viper was easer to work stock to stock than the 1100 but not as easy as my Skinz 1100. Granted mine has a lot of weight taken out I would expect this build to handle very similar.
This will open a lot of peoples eyes to how far 4s have come in handling. Everyone knows they make power, to also have mobility makes a sled like this tough to hate.......but there are always haters :face-icon-small-win

What hardware was missing?
Front bumper screws.
For what part? I put all that stuff together myself so I know it wasnt missing hardware all together. If it was missing something it definitely wasn't intentional.
The right side, upper most rearward bumper mount hole is vacant. This is just what I saw. I don't know if this is what 05900 was referring to. Don't worrry man it is easy to nitpick something as you are looking at a picture versus trying to assemble a sled at a show with hundreds of people asking questions while you are constructing.
That hole is tight up agaist something on the inside. I did put the bolt for it in there but whi knows. We wish we could have been there to do the install on all of it..maybe next time.
missing hardware could be one of two things i noticed. the cold air intake for the turbo is missing and/or the missing mounting hardware for the old skid mounting holes that were left empty because of the new skid mounting location
Time lapse photography.. phone pic.. easier to see on monitor.
And gettin thrown in the mix sucks :frusty: when a plan doesn't come together..
