Mountain Mod Seat is a nice weight savings, If you are running a turbo get rid of the muffler and do a tunnel dump, Don't do the light weight battery like Mother Trucker says because when it gets cold the battery gets to weak to start the sled.
Thanks guys for giving me a few things to check. I called up a buddy of mine that is a former Doo rider and he gave me lots of things to check too. Should have it figured out soon.
I'm not that current on the XPs so this may sound like a dumb question. Are they not fuel injected? So if it is I shouldn't have to mess with jetting? (this is where you can all make fun of me now) The last DOO I owned was a 670
A buddy of mine picked up an 09 XP at the end of last year so he hasn't had much time on it. Went for a ride this evening. When he lets off the throttle it doesn't come down to idle. The sled actually holds around 5000rpm. It will come down after you have sat for a few minutes. Or if you...
Sounds like it will rip. Don't be disappointed when some of your 2 stroke buddies stop riding with you. :d I had it happen to me. They get sick of watching a guy blow over the top of a hill in one try while they have taken 3 or 4 runs at it. Hope it works well for you. Have a great season.
I have another vote for OEM. My dealer recommended to me to change out my chain at 2500km on the turbos. When I reached 2500km I did as they recommended and I have that chain as an emergency spare still. I am now at 5000km and will be changing the chain again. Preventative maintenance never...
I am running an 07 Apex with the same goodies. I am running a stock motor with the MCX Headshim. So our compression is approx the same. I run 17psi boost with straight 100LL Av Gas. It is about the same as mixing your fuel 50/50. From what I know about the Apex the Rods and Rod Bearings are...
With that kit you just need to run Premium Pump Gas up to 12psi. After that run 100LL Av Gas for 13psi and up. You will have no worries. The system is self adjusting when it comes to the fuel delivery.
My 04 F250 has 243,000km on it. Head gaskets at 125,000km, Didn't EGR delete yet (just unplugged it after the head gaskets were done). Replaced FICM at approx. 190,000km. Got an awesome deal on a AIR RAID cold air intake and just put it in last week.
I run Timbersled Suspension in my Apex. I put the stock sized upper boagie wheels on mine to stop the track from rubbing on the shock. I knocked a few track clips as well. Seems like their rails need fresh rail tips all the time or they knock off track clips. When was the last time you...
This will be a good Thread if there are some people out there with some good quality recommended mechanics/dealerships that back their work. I am just asking because I am thinking about getting my motor done up this summer. I have my fingers crossed that my local dealer will rebuild but just...
Spare Gas Can with Gas. Food, water, matches, TP (fire starter and ass wipe) just incase you find yourself spending the night on the mountain. Assortment of tools to make basic repairs on your sled. A good spare belt, Two way radio. Duct Tape always comes in handy. If you have room a Crazy...
Yep, Keep it simple. Liquid filled gauge, Boost T. It's all I run. I set the waist gate for 12lbs of boost and then used the Boost T to turn it up from there. Then pay attention and get it set up to your desired boost and leave it alone. That way you will never run less than what your wastegate...
Call or Email Paul. His kit, He would know best. I have 2 buddies with Impulse kits, One runs straight Av Gas up to 20lbs and then Straight VP any higher than that. The other buddy runs VP mixed 50/50 up to 17lbs and Straight VP any higher than that.
