Do you GoPro ?

     
     If you don't you SHOULD ! This will be a long term product test and evaluation, and after an initial test I love the GoPro HERO HD.
     Attaching it to just about anything is as possible as your imagination limits you. It is so easy to use I didn't have to have my daughter set it up for me, and the picture and recording quality is truly AMAZING ! The GoPro HERO HD's patented sound recording system is incredible, and really does all they say it does. (you can't even hear the wives yell at us when we got the camera underwater)
     The following video are some short clips taken fathers day. The GoPro HERO HD is attached to the side of a Hunter 21, sailboat, approximately 1 foot above the waterline.
     Some things to take notice of : 1) The only noise you hear is the water (no wind, no talking, ect.).
                                                    2) Take time to notice the panorama from the wide angle shot, and the definition of the reflection in the side of the boat, as well as , the water droplets on the side, and the water vortex when under water, and the clarity of the mountains and shoreline in the distance.
     I can not describe how pleased I am with the GoPro HERO HD on this its "maiden voyage". Watch for further reviews and evaluations as I get it into a little drier off road situations.

WHO'S KICKIN' YOUR GASS ??

     Who or what has control of your fuel injection system ? Is it right for your application ? Or is a generic fuel map in a box, that sorta, kinda works...  a bit ?
     After a long term test of the MUZZYS Digi-Tune (3 years and 2 generations of tuner) I can tell you, MUZZYS Digi-Tune controls my fueler, and always will !
     If you have ever had to "program" a cell based fuel controller you will love this. The Digi-Tune is pre programmed for your Fuel Injected ATV or UTV (or road bike for that matter). The programming is done from real world tests and Hours of Dyno runs. The Digi-Tune is a load based tuner (more on this later), that leaves you in control of the fine tuning and is so EASY to use, you will overthink it to begin with.
     The system installs easily , even on my KAWASAKI Brute Force, it looks clean when installed and is weatherproof.
     Adjustments are made via 3 buttons (+ , - , and Mode) and installed in the right spot are completely adjustable on the fly, although, once set, adjustment is generally not necessary. Need to add a little or drop a little fuel ? It is this easy... Start engine, press mode button until you get to desired mode (on my cvt model I have 3 modes, Idle/cruise, Acceleration, Wide open throttle) press the + button to increase in 1/2 step increments, to decrease press the - button. THAT'S IT ! You are done, ride and enjoy the added performance.
     The load based tuning programmed into the MUZZYS Digi-Tune does all the complex calculations and mapping for you, from stock to the baddest big bore out there. Here is an excerpt from MUZZYS on load based tuning :
                  "The Digi-Tune ushers in the latest in tuning science – gone is the old throttle position and RPM (Alpha-N) based tuning, replaced by a powerful and highly effective LOAD BASED tuning methodology. Load based tuning is superior to old school systems because different gears place different loads on the engine. RPM and throttle position based systems cannot tell the difference between first or fifth gear. The Digi-Tune knows the difference and adds the proper amount of fuel for every gear, every situation."
     Being a "Veteran" of the Digi-Tune, I have taught many, many people how to use their Digi-Tune, with always impressive results. I recall helping a gentleman at the dunes, 30 seconds made the difference between getting his RZR-S half way up (and chuckles from his friends) and cresting the top with a roost from the rear wheels !!  After 3 years I have not experienced any failures, or problems with my tuners despite the fact that mine is mounted under my seat and takes a bloody beating.

     The MUZZYS Digi-Tune is EASY to use, EASY to install, EASY to monitor, and RELIABLE ! You don't find that everyday in ATV / UTV electronics.
     I am so confident in the MUZZYS Digi-Tune, that if you need help setting yours up you can contact me through my site www.maddogsgarage.com and I will assist you in setting it up.
