2017 850 - if i burn a whole tank of fuel it will burn half a tank of oil. I fill up every ride as 2 big days would be pushing my luck.. Premium is $1.55/litre in Golden, pour it in, squeeze the throttle..
Hope you are enjoying it. I'm looking to upgrade this summer and interested in the same things.
Still carries the Polaris traits by the sounds of it.. I'm on my 3rd Rzr and its a love/dislike relationship... None of them have ever left me stranded so thats a huge win and as long as you have the...
Good thing the turbo wasn't on yet... Bonus once you install the Silber turbo kit is the airbox is quite a bit smaller and makes it easy to get the plugs in and out..
Spark plugs, rave valves or reeds would - would be the usuals but if it runs fine at higher RPM wouldn't think the plugs or reeds would work better with RPM.. Maybe try to check the solenoid by the oil reservoir that controls the rave valves to see if cable is sticking a little bit open and not...
Screaming Demons in Crossfield is selling and installing Silber as well.. Not sure how it works with but i think its thru Brown.. Fin installed a kit on his AXYS a week or 2 back and we are headed out with the first 850 install this weekend.. See how it goes.. Turn around on the ECM was pretty...
Looked at the new Klim gear last week.. Quality looks awesome, material is durable, stitching looks good, wear spots in the right places and i couldn't believe how light it was - the jacket hardly weighed anything.. Pay a little more but at least you know what your getting..
I spent over $1000...
On my 3rd 6.7l and they have all been bullet proof.. Got to the airport last night and it was -14c and truck was covered in ice/snow, command start as i walked up and within 5 minutes the snow was melting on the windshield and engine was building heat, 10minutes and i was rolling. The heated...
Same as above.. Reflective tape on all couple sides, panels on the outside, on the inside i wrapped the wire looms 360, wrap the speedo plug and did a couple pieces on the cover.
Looks good. Added similar Rigids to the rear bumper on my last truck.. Only thing i didn't like was the light was so bright it made it hard to see in the backup cam..
I have a truck boss deck and purchased the single track ramp.. Found it on kijiji and purchased used.. It's the exact same as my sled deck ramp, only its 10 or 12" wide so you can adjust to the proper width and drive right up..
Re: 2018 Skidoo Summit G4 850 Mechanical Changes.
BRP should have some test pilots who can give the sleds a thorough pre-production run and provide feedback to BRP on potential failure points or piss poor engineering so the issues are resolved long before the consumer receives the product to...
With the amount of Powder days this winter, 165 3" has kicked @ss and saved some shovelling.. Weight, riding style, terrain and where you ride all play a big factor IMO..
Love my dirt bikes and use that as a comparison - XC vs a MX bike a big difference. XC is low and slow, harder to stall...
Demo'd one of Mountain Moto's M8's last winter. Sure liked how it handled. Came stock with Fox Floats and Team Clutches. Would like to try one of them Black Cats.
Wider running boards, better skids, gauges bars instruments was all awkward, of course more HP and that sled would be a lot of fun
What a crazy messed up justice system.. I understand mental illness and pray for people who are sick.. In saying that.. One thing to forget your meds and go off your rocker, scream some crazy **** and act a little messed up, totally different when you turn into a full blown barbarian animal. In...
Leaky o-ring on the reservoir can cause problems, one on the bottom of the reservoir and another on the lid. Doesn't get a good seal and brings in air or moisture, squishy once and solid the next.. Could see it not working at all, odd it would apply though.
Seen melted ski pants a few times...
Last winter my sled died up on Eagles. Came across the lake, hit a bump, the sled burped and died. Got it fired back up but only running on 1 cylinder. I drove it out and took it to the dealer and found that the wires going to injector had shorted right at the injector body and parted on the pto...
Rode the hell out of my 850 all weekend.. Sleds wants to pull your arms off, snappy when you grab on and keeps pulling hard. New track is awesome, bites really hard, doesn't trench out, and get's you moving quick and up on the snow. Broke the belt in racing to the alpine then WOT from there. No...
A&E in Brooks is the Western dealer for Elka shocks as of recent. You can order from AE and have them valved and tuned for your rider weight and riding style. Dirtbikes shocks are being upgraded/rebuilt daily, adding sleds to the mix. I'm going to give them a try.
Asked, and was told the owner...
