Should only be a couple more weeks.

Long, slow, boring, weeks. Like a couple weeks of eternity.

Can't wait till the new one gets in!!

Rear shock on my xm sp seems to have lost its jazz. Rode it for 40 km, loaded it up , was all good trailered home, ( was strapped on rsils, not by sinching down bumper) , sat for a few days outside ( very cold) unloaded and seemed like the rear shocks were sages out. ???? On hardest setting, put into warm garage a couple days and still, pick up the back , full extension, and when I put it down the suspension drops to near bottom , any thoughts on a fix ? What caused? Could they have froze and just need to warm , I'm used to fox air shocks so? Kinda chitty .

The shock is a shock absorber. The springs are what supports most of the weight. The stock springs are too light.

I'm having a problem with mine derating 4000 rpm. Any thoughts? Tried shutting it down then firing back up, worked fine for 30 seconds sometimes, ten minutes other times. Sled is a summit x 800 163 pull start...​

I got a problem................................cant get this chit eatin' grin off my face.

Hmmm, seems like nothings changed. Doo boys eating chit..... And grinning about it !! My only guess is, that when you've eaten it for that long, it starts to taste good. Especially when it's washed down with a tall, cold glass of Doolaid. LMAO !!!


Done fishing. Let's go sledding !!

Sounds like a bad O2 or MAP sensor. Time for a trip to the ol laptop doctor at the doo dealer.

Meh, I'd rather have a Poo eating grin than picking up the pieces from another one that chit it's driveshaft out. Although the Doolaid helps wash down those pieces when they get in your mouth.

Anyone have their sensor in the muffler come out? 2 sleds from different dealers, and with less than 150 miles, both had the sensor back out. They ran fine with no code or anything?? seems like they forgot to tighten them in

I put a can on mine on the 2nd day and it was loose when I put a wrench to it.
