Either in the Fall of this year or when the 2007's are introduced in the Spring, I will be getting rid of my Venom. One thought is to try to find a new
still in a crate Viper, or move over to something like a Nytro. A couple of friends have Vipers, and the power difference between my Venom and their Vipers are enough to make me have some regrets, otherwise, a very nice sled.
Or do I move over to 4 strole land?
Thanks,

I made that jump last year from a sx 600 to a Viper and it was a BIG differenece. I wanted a great trail sled that was bullet proof. After seeing the Nytro, the 07 four stroke may be the ticket if I was looking for a new sled.
Go with the newest sled.
 
A new 4 stroke would be nice. Wait a year or two and pick one up a good used for alot less. You could probably sell your Venoma and get good used viper for a fair price in the mean time. Can you stick some tripple pipes under the hood of the Venom ? Do the reed mod. It all depends how much you want to spend.

Tripples will work, I think, the Venom is an ER. (clearance problems perhaps?) but noise levels are a concern, I ride in WI. and Mi. Noise is a concern in Wi. for sure.
If I could pick up 20-25 reliable HP, I would be happy with what I have. I have received great feedback here on the mods, with tripples probably being the best way to make power, but again if the DNR is having a day...
We'll see what the future holds.

Back when the vipers came out I was going to buyn a viper but cancelled because of the dnr in wi.I have about 8 buddies that got fines one of them got two.The area's I ride the dnr cover heavy.The aaen pipes don't make as much hp as others but sounds dam near stock.

call simons cpr. he has tripples for the venom that are quiet, put it at 124hp and i think they fit with the reverse and electric start. should be as fast as a viper with that power and not attract attention either!
 
my simons weren't too quiet, but they made some real decent power. Liked my aaen's a lot too.
 
Were the Aaen's quieter than the CPR's ?
Aaen is 20 minutes away, so that would work out nicely.
I did talk to Jeff at CPR and he did say if I ran into a "picky" dnr officer, I would get a ticket.
