I have had this generator for a couple years now and it works great. (I won it in a fishing derby) at the time it was around 600 bucks, if i recall
I think 300 bucks is a good deal
I brought it to my last track day so the kids could plug in their.... electronics.... lol

50% off this weekend for the 4000w generator at CT - Not going to find a better deal than that!
Could probably power at least 4 sets of warmers and has wheels and handle to make it easier to move around.

Yeah your probably right... it is 3000w running.
Still for $297 compared to what the OP was looking at purchasing is a much better deal.

I've just spent 2 days at the track pitted 50ft away from 2 of these. Do us a favour. Turn the exhaust towards yourself.
They, and their type,are probably the loudest at the track. I have a Honeywell inverter which is okay. My mate has a 3000w Honda which is quiet. And during the day, with bikes running, then the genny noise is swallowed up. But once the bikes go off around 5pm then you notice who has the loud gennys. And I'm 100% aware that not everyone can afford the best, most quiet Hondas. I know I can't. But if your genny is loud then please try to muffle the noise a bit and consider your neighbours. Just pointing the exhaust away from your pit area isn't the solution. We ended up having to put a rubbish bin in front of the one loud genny and it killed the noise by about 50%.
And I'm not suggesting R1Guy is a noise polluter either, or having a go. I don't know the guy and, to the best of my knowledge have never pitted by him.
i have an old stock exhaust pipe off an old bike, has anyone ever just put a pipe from the generator into the stock pipe to try to baffle the noise ?

Guys ... it's no loader than my CT 1300w generator that I have used for a year and a half now.
When I'm at the track I place my generator way out in the field and run an extension cord long enough, I can't stand the sound of generators!
With this placement I've never had anyone complain... I would never think to put that thing beside my pit or point it at anyone...
So back to my point... it's a good deal (50% off) it's on wheels (so you can park it further away from everyone), can power up to 3 sets of warmers thus eliminating 2 other generators and noise from the pit area.

3 years at the track and I have heard some LOUD gennys, never seen anyone complain or any type of confrontation...People just complain about them on the net once safely inside their homes. LOL Loud music, partiers, pit bikes, big bikes etc. Peace and quiet is rare even after the track sessions are complete for the day : )
I have the HY2000si. It'll run my Woodcraft warmers plus my fan, compressor and anything else i need running.
I had some issues with it when it was new because some of them come with a crappy Torch spark plug in them. Swap that with an NGK and it starts 1000% better and runs very smoothly. It is a bit louder than a Honda/Yamaha but at 1/4 the price i can't complain.

Perhaps my old yoshimura slip-on would mount on my loud generator, it would still be loud, but hell it would sound cool. Just a thought.
