Took my sled to valemount this wknd and couldn't pull more that 7900 rpm on dick hard snow. Rode it 3 weeks before in Revy in balls deep pow and was pulling 8250 all day long. The only thing that was done between that time was a new drive shaft installed by Polaris. I took it for a ride across my yard back home in ab and could pull 8200, normally it's pulling 8500 at home. Anyone else having this issue??

Spring isn't broken. Rollers, rolling. Track is a little bit tighter but not enough to drop 300 to 400 rpm I wouldn't think...

I noticed when i went for a ride on sunday at my farm mine bogged out and fell flat on its face for a couple seconds under full throttle pumpin it but then opend up good right after. I got just shy of 100 miles on my '13, is this some kind of break in perod finishing notification or somethin or what happend? Sound like a similar issue like you had but not as bad. Did yours maybe do the same around the same milage?

Check they didn't change your fuel setting to ethane for running here when they changed your track, that can cost some power.

Mine did fall on it's face once around 100kms but never did it again.
I'm not on ethanol mode. Could a bad belt cause me to lose tgat much rpm? Defflection is good. It is acting like exhast valves aren't opening properly but I checked them and they r working fine.
I'm getting frustrated with this thing!

Thank you for letting us know, too many times a thread starts out and we never hear if the guy found the problem. Glad to hear its a simple fix.

The good old broken primary spring. bought a sled back in 02 with a broken clutch spring, they guy sold it CHEAP. had lots of miles, guy probably thought he just got ride of a ticking time bomb but new spring and sold the thing 3 years ago with no problems after that.
