I recently purchased a 2020 Massimo 400 EFI and  began installing soundproofing to lower the overall body noise.  The model I choose is the crew cab with rear facing seat and diamond plate bed.  

the first phase involved removing the rear deck and applying Noico 80 mil sound deadening mat over the exposed diamond plate sections of the underside.  This immediately removed the  sound of vibrating metal plate!

Next phase is to continue this application to the interior of the plastic  around the engine compartment and then any other plastic panel that has a "hollow" sound.   It will add 2-3 pounds to the overall vehicle weight  but it makes a huge difference in noise reduction.  One question I have - there is a vent directly in front of the engine (behind a drivers leg about calf level)  I am strongly thinking about covering this as the level of engine noise here is huge.  The engine is water cooled so I don't think this is a problem as the air input is minimal - but i don't wish to overheat the engine.

Thoughts?

      I have a 2020 800 sx with about 16 hours on it.  From day one I have heard a clunking noise from the front end going over bumps.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Also this past weekend while out riding I heard a noise that sounded like the dump bed bounced three or four different times, again has anyone experienced anything like that.  Thanks, gary

      Hey Guys, I have been chasing a stalling condition for about two weeks now. The bike will crank up and idle fine, then after about 20 seconds it will fall on its face and stall. It happens at both idle and while running at various rpms. You can turn the key off, turn it back on and it will fire right back up without trouble. I have verified spark on both cylinders with a spark tester. I have also added an inline fuel filter, and pulled the injectors to verify proper pulse on each. Things I have replaced - (relearn procedure performed after each component replaced): spark plugs, ECU, relay/fuse box, fuel pump, & throttle position sensor - all with no improvement of the condition. The only warning light I get when the condition occurs is the oil lamp. The bike only has 14 miles. I am at a loss and appreciate any help and suggestions! Thanks
