I found that the same too, that the nose piece was a lot closer then other helmets. I bought one anyways and don't make no difference for fogging up is say. And now I'm used to it being close and seems normal. Oh and the new 509 helmets come with a go pro mount that replaces the scew that holds...
Just ticks? Doesn't try and turn over really slowly? I've seen a bad motor ground once and it acted like a bad battery and or starter moto. This was on a 14 xm. Try putting a booster battery on the sled?
I ended up cutting the ends back a bit so the stock grips would work, the bars are a bit longer. Also I cut a notch in the bar pad foam so you could run the wires like stock was and tucked the plugs under the pad. Ran the wiring down the side of the riser nice and clean
I drilled a hole in my bars p, the bolt is a self tapper. I run 5" CFR knuckle risers and the boondocker bars on my 16 xm with the riser inline with the post. Wish I did this too my 13 back in the day, so comfortable
Coming from a Doo guy the axys looks pretty cool I really can't wait to compare my T3 to one on a hill, polaris upped there game IMO. Nice sled and enjoy!
