Could someone tell me what this Boost bottle does(advantages) for my bike? ANd where it goes? I assume its and exhaust part of some sort but I have no idea really. :">
 
It hooks into your intake boot. But it has no advantages, they don't do anything for performance. Not worth the money, more for looks than anything.
 
yea they hook up to your intake boot like flyers said but i think they do increase ur trottle response a little better nutin worth worring about though!!
 
i got one for looks and let me tell u thats all it is for unless u got a spacer too it aint worth the looks either cause without the spacer it sets to close to the head it actually ruds and gets hot then melts i had to mod mine to make it not melt..So even for the looks its not worth it..
 
thought about getting one but after reading this. i'm, trashing that idea thanks for giving the advice guys
 
The boost bottle is a killer piece especially if your running a big carb. It stores the first intial pull of air so it doesnt have to come from so far away. when you let off the throttle it fills the bottle back up. elimanates most or all of the 2stroke bog!!! I ran them on my nitro RC cars and love mine on the blaster.
 
wait, so you actually have noticed a diff with a boost bottle? the one i have on my BOH blaster doesn't do jack sh*t that i noticed o.O
 
Well im running a stock bore blaster that has been ported and polished and milled to the nuts. When i put the mamoth kehin carb on i noticed a slight bog or dead spotright off idle. So the dude that port my motor is into vintage Hadokas. He set it up for me and it got rid of the 2 stroke dead spot. I dont know if it will work on everybody else quad but with all the mods weve done it worked killer. The boost bottle basicly stores air right at the intake, instead of having to pull from the airbox. When you gas it it pulls the air from the bottle first, and when you let off the throttle it refills the bottle with air. Your first intial shot of air always ready. Cant hurt!!!
 
Hmmmmmm..... Yeah i've been trying to decide if i want to buy one or not. i have the same keihin 34mm flat slide pj, that carb is a beast. and i also have the same pipe on mine, maybe it'll make a difference on mine. with your carb did it ever have trouble revvin the motor up all the way sometimes? or would the boost bottle help fix that?
 
Isn't it kind of weird that the intake is pretty much set up for a boost bottle. Like they know its a good idea but to save money they decided not to put it on.
Think about that.
Either that or yamaha just likes screwing with people, lol.
 
haha, yeah somethin like that! I had to buy a new boot for mine, and it cost almost 80 bucks just for one that fits with the right angle, but it no longer has the little thing on top like its prepped for a boost bottle.
