E-TEC, almost over the bars.

[Teth-Air]

Just a heads up for the E-TEC guys. (or gals) When you are in a too high of a clicker, you might go over the bars when hitting the rev limiter. It is not like other sleds that stutter bounce off the lmiter, it is more like the motor shuts down for 1/2 a second before recovering. I actually thought something was wrong with it before noticing that it was exceeding about 8200 rpm.

Clicked down and all is good.

p.s. the Cordless Teth-Air worked flawlessly on the E-TEC. If someone is installing one on theirs, PM me with your email adress and I will email the photos and instructions. We will post on our website in the near future.

Hey I was just wondering what you have your clutch setting on. My new 2011 800 etec is set at 1 just wondering whats the best.

 

[underdog]

Mine is set on 3. Seems to work pretty good. Have you rode it yet?

2-3 on trail and 4 for steep and deep at 2000 meters, 320 kms on clock.

I have 30 km on it so far... But heading up to Revy Dec 2.. So you guys recommend me to set my clutch on 3..

 

[underdog]

Like Teth-air said, 2-3 on the trail, and 4 on the hill. My sled held 8,100 RPM on 3 the whole time, but each machine will be different. Just have to play with it.

Also the Summit decals are peeling off the side panels so try warming and smoothing down before you ride. Also the heavy can jumped out of the belly pan hole so keep an eye on it. Lastly keep an eye on the windshield as I lost mine rolling it in the deep powder.

My summit stickers haven't started peeling off yet. But I only have 200 k on mine so far.

A freind of mine had his summit x 154 out he said it doesn't turn on the hardpack very well any of you guy's notice this or could it just need some fine tuning?

mine is a little like that as well, really pushes into corners, but its brand new and im sure its just setup. increase ski pressure bit by bit and he'll find his happy place

Kinda what i figured i have a new 163 i find it turns better than my 159 rev but i have only rode it around the yard.

 

[underdog]

My 163 turns way better than my old 151. Could be the ski difference too.
