Anyone know or heard of some slow Mavericks?

I finally got a chance to race my xp against my Maverick and the XP smokes the Maverick, never a competition. Starting to wonder now about the dyno numbers.

Was just emailing back and forth with someone who has contact at a big dealership in PA and they have reports of some slow ones.

I admit I am totally new to the Maverick electronics but is there anyway the key is programmed wrong or something. Top speed so far has been 76 but acceleration is not what the reports are saying it is.

The xp has 26x9 light tires all the way around, Dalton clutch kit, muzzy pipe and gen 4 fuel controller.

Was reading on here stock mavericks out running XP's with stage II cams etc.

When my power commander gets here I will know if the throttle is opening all the way or not.

Anyone have experience at this?

I would have the dealer reflash the ECM and reflash the key, make sure you are running atleast 91 octane since the maverick requires that atleast .. Anything less than 91 the knock sensors will detect a knock and cut timing back, if yours is brand new its possible the dealer put 87 in it. And there's a chance you have a bad secondary spring from the factory which has been tossed around from time to time

Dealer is 250 miles away and I already put Dalton clutch kit in, quicker with it in there too.

Is your XP stock?

No, was in first post but here is the mods, it and a stock XP run almost the same in a drag race

The xp has 26x9 light tires all the way around, Dalton clutch kit, muzzy pipe and gen 4 fuel controller.

Ahh I missed it. I have raced several stock XP's while I was still stock and always beat them. It's not by a huge margin but I always pull ahead. Not sure what's up with yours. I have heard of some people claiming there Mav was slower then most.

Stupid question but do you have it in sport mode?

What RPM is it pulling?

Yes it is possible your key is programmed wrong, I have seen it before. It should say "PERFORMANCE KEY" on the display when you fire it up.

Low hours on machine. Some people think the mav is dutunned until it hits a manic 10 hours. Didn't notice that on mine though.

Egg on my face, not in sport mode. My son been riding on it. Pardon me for my Maverick electronic ignorance.

It happens. Same thing happened to me after my wife drove it the other day that is why I asked. I guess I could pull the switch out of the panel and tape it up.

 

[Hunterworks]

problem is I don't know when it got flipped off. I just redynoed and got right at 60hp instead of the low 50's I got so I have to pull clutch kit off, gen 4 controller off and start from scratch. Ugh!!! I feel stupid for not noticing and also I will say again, I hate this smart electronics.

You gonna race em again?

That's what I did! Taped it in the on position, and zip tied in to the frame behind the dash. I think running with the sport switch off is only for east coasters

Watch it!!! LOL

I did, they run dead even now and I would expect that. My xp is slightly quicker than a stock one. Come to think of it, I think I dragraced the bone stock xp when I stock tires not these lighter weight ones

With sport mode off its only opening the tb to 70%

 

[Canamxteam]

With sport mode off it makes going threw the rock sections smooth as butter it's great

 

[Hunterworks]

ok, so someone educate me on the electronics where it cuts power, the axle saver or whatever they call it.

 

[Canamxteam]

When the rear tires spin at whatever rate brp set it to it closes the tb to slow down the tire speed. And with the sport mode it just changes the amount the tb moves compared to the pedel And only giving you max 70% open. Is what I've been told

 

[BAMA-S]

If I'm running rocks. Ruts. And technical sections I like sport mode off
