OUTLAW 525

CT Racing has been working overtime on the Polaris 525 Outlaw quads. We have been doing the motor work for the Factory backed desert team (Hancock Racing), as well as Quad Magazines Nick Nelson. Nick is racing both the 525 independent and Solid axle models, and we have done significant amount of testing on both. CT’s owner Allen Knowles is also going to be racing a Polaris backed entry at two GNCC rounds and one WORCS series round for R&D. We now offer pipes for both 525 and 450. We have actually developed two pipes for the solid axle, a center mount and a side mount to help with the implementation of a rear mounted air box.

Our 450 pipe program is now complete. We are producing just over 48 rear wheel HP out of the 450. We will have the Dyno Chart posted next week. The pipe will be shipped with a jet kit including main jets, pilot jet, and a Titanium needle. The pipe is shipped with 14 discs as that is what we found produces the most HP on the 450.We are running a modified air box lid (significantly opened up) and stock filter to produce this HP.

We have a very good engine  program for the 525 KTM motor. We have done many of the KTM 520 and 525 two wheel motors, and have been working for years with Ed Teixeira and his Honda chassis 525 KTM powered desert racer.

We also have a lot of information for setting up the chassis so if you have question or need help feel free to call us. We have been working very hard with TCS/  Race Tech developing shocks and have also been testing the Fox Floats. Along with Rath Racing sway bar we have the Outlaw Independent  handling extremely well.

Below is a list of 10 things to make your Outlaw better. This was written in 2007 by CT's Allen Knowles after Racing the Polaris Cup , for the 07 model Outlaw. Some of the things could have been upgraded by Polaris on the 08, 09 model, but much of it still applies.

CT Racing's Top 10 Things to do to make your Outlaw better:

  1. The KTM 525 responds very well to a pipe. The CT Sonic Pipe has been the choice of most of the top riders racing the Outlaw including Jeff Hancock for his Off Road Racing effort, Daryl Rath to win the Stateline Supermoto Championship, Nick Nelson for his Polaris Cup Effort, among others. The CT Sonic Pipe utilizes the spark arrestor disc system so you can tune it for both performance and sound.
  1. Heat can be an issue in slow tight woods riding and racing. We've found that a motor can actually run cooler if you pull the thermostat off of it and run the hose just straight to the top of the head, eliminating the Y section of the radiator hose altogether. You will need to plug off where the hose leads to the cylinder.
  1. The foot pegs seem to be a bit too far back with the seat arrangement. When you get slide forward on the seat it actually is hard to stand up and ride aggressively. We had an upholstery shop add 1” of 00 foam to the front half of the seat, then blend it in toward the back. Then we covered it with a CT Graphics Kit / Seat Cover combo.
  1. Change the front wheel hub bearings. The stock bearings are on the marginal side for serious off road racing. If they fail it leaves you with a junk brake rotor, and ruins the spindle and hub. Pick up some quality Japanese bearings at a bearing house. Spend a couple of bucks now to eliminate a big bill later.
  2. Install a set of Fast Flex bars along with their anti vibration bar inserts. This combo can really save you some energy and they'll take some of the pounding away from your hands and arms.
  1. A steering stabilizer is pretty much mandatory for off road riding on the Outlaw. It does not have a lot of caster, this makes it quicker turning, which is good, but it also wants to rip the bars out of your hands when you're pounding through the rocks and tree roots. The Precision is arguably the best damper you can buy. It is adjustable for range of motion along with stiffness. The expensive dampers like the Precision are stiff when the bars are straight but they brake free when you have the bars turned. So you don’t waste energy cranking the bars when the quad is sideways.
  1. A PWR radiator can add some margin of protection for heat issues, especially if you run a lot of tight trails where the radiator is not getting lots of air. We also recommend putting screen or residential heater element foam in front of the radiator in muddy conditions. If you let a radiator get packed with mud, it stops working and you will eventually cook your motor.
  1. Stiffer anti sway bars let you be more aggressive with your cornering, so it doesn’t roll over in the corners. We tested two, one from Rath Racing and one from cross country veteran John Gallagher Sr. Both worked well.
  1. Aftermarket suspension will help any quad. We turned to TCS Suspension to make our Outlaw better. Their shocks will let you plane the top of the whoops instead of wallowing through them. They'll also provide plusher ride and more wheel travel.
  2. An IMS tank might be a good move on this quad. IMS is making a high capacity tank that allows you to run a million miles before you need to re-fill, so we think you might be  able   to get to Alaska and back.  It’s nice to have the capacity so you don’t have to worry about fuel on the long rides.
