I grabbed the TKI rear scissor from Chris at Source that he was mentioning he had above. Always great to deal with him, and support a local business. I will have a good spare if anyone gets into a bind and needs a stocker. Didn’t want to take any chances cause I’ll break mine for sure and the...
Awesome great to know I wasn’t too far off with my 73g guess, do you know if the PEFI flash adds timing? I’m going to guess it does? What are your RPM’s with the 73g’s in?
I’ll be aiming for 8100 with the timing bump, I’m hoping with the timing bump it will move that peak HP up a little bit. The head and the y pipe both make most of there gains in the mid range. I don’t want the peak HP to fall early before 8000 is my reasoning on the timing bump. I’m guessing...
Does he have the bikeman adjustable magnetic weights? If so remove them put back to stock weights or put a dalton adjustable weight back in. The bikeman weights were complete junk and would get flat spots on the back of the profile this creating the dreaded 7000rpm peak they had a huge run of...
Finally found some time to work on my sled today. SlimeR got a Powder Freaks Head, BDX Y-Pipe, Dalton weights, and a 2.5deg timing bump. The head is a piece of art. Super clean, fit and finish is 100% - Great quality product. I cant say the same about the BDX Y Pipe I was super disappointed with...
Long story short my “hyperextended knee” from my one and only ride last year turned out to be a stage II tear of my ACL, PCL, and MCL as well as a broken femur!! Needless to say I never rode again last year.
It wasn’t for sale but I accepted a very healthy offer on SlimeR from a friend who...
Yeah thanks again for the guidance last year. Tex recommended and made sure I was doing things right and not to cheap out, made sure I was checking everything and nothing was missed.
I just went through this last year. 290K on my 12’ LML and she went down with a hole in a piston. Mind you I ran the absolute **** out of it, and 90% of the time it was on the hot tune. I weighed out all options, trading it in, buying a complete used drop in engine, long block, short block etc...
Great thread!
I’ve basically blown up every sled I’ve ever owned. They say you learn from your mistakes...?

This is true, looks like it’s only coming with the one year warranty and additional YPP is not available on the Mountain Max.

What I can see happening is Cat getting the Yamaha engineers to work with the fuel management software to develop a bullet proof seamless map for the turbo system that was supposed to be released this year. Let’s not forget this is the same system/electronics on the ctech motor that yamaha...
I feel there is much more to this. Yes it’s a blue arctic cat with better warranty and a free cover. I feel the production sleds will have many slight differences by the time they come to the consumer next year. Perhaps the air box will be fixed? Will yamaha fix the exploding clutch issue? What...
