Re: Yamaha G2 Predator 670 Swap
Yep, many have talked about this swap but this is the first I've seen begin it. Looks good so far. Keep up the good work and clean build.

Re: Yamaha G2 Predator 670 Swap
Making a little more progress, I got my belt in the mail and installed it. I also got some flexible exhaust pipe ordered and it should be here on Friday. I also had to order a new brake cable for the drivers side, after the drop of the swing arm the original cable was too short. I ordered another passenger side cable and hooked it up on the drivers side. I began some body work as well, the lower dash piece had 2 large holes cut out of it with headlight mounted in it, and the upper cowl has two holes in it from where the home made canopy was mounted through it. I used a 2 part epoxy to glue some fiberglass backing material into the holes. I then use Bondo all purpose putty to fill the holes. After some sanding its starting to come together, but I will need some finer filler to finish it up.

Re: Yamaha G2 Predator 670 Swap
jrv97240 on my mule i fixed my motor to where i could slide it forward to take some slack out of the belt. and with a comet 780 clutch its fun taking off cause it will try to get sideways with me.

Re: Yamaha G2 Predator 670 Swap
I am hoping I dont have to much slack, but i need to test run it to find out. I dont want to it to be too wild, my wife will be driving this thing from time to time and I dont plan on breaking any land speed records. I just through the big motor idea was cool If i do indeed need to move my motor forward I will have to add some additional steel to my motor mount as currently my holes are drilled all the way towards the front of the brackets I added.

Re: Yamaha G2 Predator 670 Swap
With a governor it will not go faster, but it will get there a lot quicker! I had to adjust to my clone because on trails you can't just mat it most of the time like before. You get going too fast for the corners; before you realize you are near top speed when you get to the next corner.

Re: Yamaha G2 Predator 670 Swap
I had to add a lever to equalize the carts long throttle throw to the clones short movement. See" clone throttle" in clone section.
