    why does it feel impossible to put the head plus base onto my piston ?

    Make sure you get the proper torque specs and torque everything in the proper sequence too!If you start guessing now it will be a waste of money!

    2014 Arctic Cat

    I hope it is 2 stroke technology!If they phase out anymore 2 strokes I'll be leaving cat!I still can't believe they expect you to buy a non-turbo 1100 to replace a 600 2 stroke!!Same power maybe,same weight maybe if your high on crack!!If they do like Yamaha and get rid of the 2 strokes they're...

    polaris rxl 650 gass leak from gasket that I think is called the base..

    In your one pic is that stinger cracked?You'll gain some more power if your exhaust is sealed up and not cracked.And with over fueling you might get a spark too,not good!They look like psi pipes,those were loud mothertruckers!LOL!

    a little unnerving

    You can't please everyone!I have no problem getting checked out when I'm out riding!But what really is the big deal about anyways!I've rode a lot of places and it seems to be getting worse with the guys getting ch!t faced at the cabins and no one can say anything without it turning into a ch!t...

    Sending Out A Big Thanks!

    I was coming back from north of Timue and ran into the tracks just across Deep Creek!And it was absolute crap all the way back to powerline hill where they unloaded!It is rough at the best of times but a lot worse when your fighting foot deep ruts!I could have avoided it I guess and went back in...

    Help on a '96 XCR 600

    Crap in the carbs or check the throttle block!If that pin gets to loose it will cut out on the safety switch in the throttle housing.Possible throttle cable issue,might be starting to fray and causing it to hang up a bit.

    Sending Out A Big Thanks!

    Be nice if everyone thought like that but a person will just have to live with guys that do that!At least it wasn't on a trail where a guy pays for trail passes!I just know to avoid the area for the rest of the year since the warm weather is going to make it like train tracks!

    Sending Out A Big Thanks!

    Had a awesome ride yesterday west of my place!Lots of miles but I want to send out a big thanks to guys with the side by side and quads that absolutely chewed the ch!t out the powerline west of the Vega ferry!Looked like a good time getting stuck every 50 feet and chewing ruts right down to the...

    I have a 99 Yamaha 700 triple with one and how hard is it to take off and put back to stock?This thing is pissing me off!The kids sled so I don't think it's going to the mountains anytime soon so jetting it isn't a problem!It ran fine last year and this year it's over fueling the outside...

    How has your sled treated you in the long haul?

    Good except every 27 days I park it across the yard and don't look at it for a day or two!Then we get along fine!!LOL!!

    Ethanol fuel Question

    I'm going to try just plain regular in it and see what it does.I only ever used to farm gas in the damn thing even with the mods!I only had engine trouble with it after I clipped a tree in McBride and I think it gave the pc3 a brain tumor and it kept taking out the pto cylinder.I put in a pc5...

    Ethanol fuel Question

    I can't figure it out!It ran perfect last year other than a little lean in mid range when the valves are starting to open but I would either give more throttle or slow down a bit and it was fine.I had a pc3 on it before that screwed up and kept taking out the pto piston so I put a pc5 on last...

    Ethanol fuel Question

    I have a 09 M1000 with a slp pipe,y-pipe,intake,v-force reeds and a pc5.This year I'm having trouble with my exhaust temps getting crazy above 3/4 throttle!According to my koso gauges I've been over 1300 at least 5 times!That motor should have squeaked the first time!I pulled the plugs when it...

    New sled RANT

    I had a chance to compare a couple of 2013 163,154 doos and a 13 155 pro.Not a fan of doos but they do work good with a slight edge to the 163 in climbing but the 154 was easier to twist off in the meadows with because of the track length!...In my opinion!I preferred the polaris and could make...

    Grizzly Mountain Lodge

    Nhl and player's, Get it done!!!

    I'm not a hockey fan at all! Why don't the hockey fans boycott a bunch of games or the rest of the season to let the owners and players know their disgust with how they acted with this!The season is basically half over so why not skip the rest of it and hit them in their wallet because that's...

    The twin vs triple debate. time to bring back the trip---or not?

    Still love the sound of a triple piped triple!I've owned a couple over the years(96 ultra,2000 xcr 800) and still have 99 mountain max 700 for the kids!They only really make power with triple pipes but you have to take the time to keep them tuned!Everybody can throw numbers around but it is...

    Fox Float Shocks

    They still have a internal nitrogen chamber.The air pump just controls the ride,the nitrogen is supposed to control the ride height and sag.

    Fox Float Shocks

    Where can I find the nitrogen specs for these shocks?I have a 09 m1000 sno pro and I need to have the fronts bumped up again.The nitrogen leaks out after a couple years and I just want to know what pressure to set the nitrogen at.
