Well, I guess I'll go first. Still riding it and still like it. A little soft on power compared to my 900 Kitty. It will be getting a rebuild in the off season and a 153 3 inch pitch Challenger. Could still be 10 more years in the old girl.

You actually have a better sled than mine. You don't have Isoflex grease in the crank bearings. I will remedy that when I tear it apart and get rid of the grease.

Got a 03 Highmark 800. Bought it last year with 500Km. Makes me giggle every time we go out. Been to Crows pass twice for our first time in the mountains. Man what a great experience!

you can still get a lot of performance from this motor, RKtech can get you in the area of 150hp, and with the right clutching you would have a real nice ride. nice thing about these sleds there are used parts all over the place, you just have to justify spending the money on an older sled. it should bring miles of smiles for a long time with a little maintenance.

Is shaving the head worth the mod on an 03 800ho? I hear an extra 10hp or so for this mod.

Maybe 3-4 hp, nothing more than that.
