I was at a demo derby today down in Washington county, and they said on sunday they will be having a atv pull where you can bring your atvs and challenge friends and stuff. The first thing that came to my mind was pulling with my RSO, does anyone have any experience with atv pulling? How do you think the r would do? I would probably have to add weights to get some traction. Any ideas/help would be great.

You would probably have to add quite a bit of weight, a good place would be on the grab bar? But having a 250r you might want something else on the front end to keep that down too, im not sure how it would do but i know my kfx for example would barley pull anything. Good luck!

They have had them here a couple times. You will just destroy your R's clutch trying to pull with it and possibly melting a piston.
Here they have had different classes 2x4 and 4x4. 800 sportsmans with pipe and rev box always win the bigbore 4x4 class.
I had the RIGHT to remain silent, I didn't have the ability!

I just thought it would be funny to see a 2 stroke 3 wheeler pull up against some quads, i probably wont go.

I don't know, with the modifieds it's all about wheel speed and momentum, hooking up may be the challenge, It would be cool to try, might be suprised.....

I use to do garden tractor pulls. With the modified classes, it was all about wheel speed. I think with the R, if you get the weight right on the front and keep the wheels spinning, youll do ok.
Biggest thing i would be worried about with the 2 stroke would getting it very hot and melting down the piston.
Now if you had a 200X or 350X, it would be a different story.

Thats why i was thinkin about using the 400 yami, its got weight and power, but its kinda broken down right now and i dont know if the rear could handle the stress of pulling a sled.
