I just got my Gen-X hood in the mail...no instructions or anything came with it.. How did you install your Gen-X hood?? Sorry if this is a sort of stupid question but I want to make sure I do it the right way! I have never had a hood on my quad before :huh:

I bet it's pink huh?

Better post pictures!!

PS I have no idea

 

[FourFiftyFour]

LOL I wish it was pink but I got the black carbon fiber one and Im going to get hot pink airbrushed flames on the hood probably this winter......

It didnt come with any bolts or predrilled holes? If all else fails Ducktape it

it came with the bolts and stuff and on the underside it says to use 5/16 drill bits... so does the hood go over the existing plastic or do u have to cut the plastic and then the hood goes where the plastic was??? stupid question I know but the only installation section they have on their site is for the TRX :huh:

Your hood should have 4 pre-drilled holes in it, and you just mark it on your plastic and drill it out.

Is your hood not pre drilled?

 

[FourFiftyFour]

ok it is pre drilled...so the hood just goes over the existing plastic and u just drill and nothing else needs to be done? Sounds simple enough! lol

 

[kidsdad0101]

Yup thats it.

That was so easy, it was difficult. :fro:

Hood is installed and looks great! I will get pics of it when I do promotions tomorrow at Tejas Motorsports.

Heres my bike
I just layed the hood on the front of my bike and drilled holes.. I just love how it has clips unstead of metal brackets it looks really clean and hold the "stock look".. What do you guys thing about it?

Its ok.....but I am not a big fan of the Gen-X hoods though. I don't think it has as much protection to the electronics and wiring as the QuadTech Beak. Then again I have never seen them in person either.

no offense to the beak owners but I cant STAND how the beak looks....I like how the hood looks a lot better than the beak...the hood also goes down fairly far and seems like it will provide adequate protection

yes i agree i really dont like the beaks i like the gen x hoods

 

[BCGIrish]

I like how the Gen X hoods look but I don't like how they look on the LTR... that make sense? I think it looks to much like it was just thrown on top of it rather than flow with the bike's lines. I think the beak flows better.

Nope doesn't make sense. That's like saying:
I like fat chicks but I don't like fat chicks on my LTR....lol.

 

[BCGIrish]

I think I liked it better when you didn't post.

 

[blue_eyed_surfer2002]

their both kinda ugly, the modified stock pieces with screens are awesome though

 

[LTR450_#67]

Each to their own I guess.....
