    2025 SRX photo leak?

    It looks like there's also an adjustable riser like what Ski-Doo offers? The best part for me is the photos of the updated XTX LE showing an alarm...

    Spring Maintenance all done

    What kind of instructions did the water pump impeller come with (I'd be curious about getting a copy to see what the job entailed)? Looks good Bob! Definitely getting me in the mood to start turning wrenches and tackling the bigger projects I have in mind for my SideWinder!

    Crashed my 2022 SRX

    It depends on the state and/or your insurance. Some states (like Connecticut) require situations to have a "not at fault" clause, which basically forces the insurance company to take care of their customer first regardless of whose at fault THEN go after the insurance of the induvial at fault...

    Tread GPS Installed On Sidewinder

    I installed my Garmin Tread using the Arctic Cat trail mount this past weekend. I love having a GPS for the obvious reasons, but I do have a few niggles related to this one. The Group Ride Radio lost my father fairly often (we were never more than a mile from each other and as soon as I pulled...

    teather

    Totally forgot about replying to this after many miles and smiles on my first trip this season to northern Maine (-20°F temperatures BEFORE the wind chill might have frozen the brain cells dedicated to getting you this). The part number is 1686-820 and you can get it from Arctic Cat (the part...

    teather

    What's the year on the sled? Looks like a 2020 model, which means the tether plugs into a connection right under the spars that come up from the fuel tank. In order to bypass it, you'll just need to order the bypass plug. I have the part number at home I can send your way after work.

    Custom GPS Mounting

    For anyone looking to go this route who will need an antenna (or use this mount for other purposes), the Arctic Cat part number is 6716-424. The Customer Service folks from Arctic Cat happily (literally, happily) sent me over the installation instructions, which includes the part numbers for...

    Custom GPS Mounting

    We used that app for a while and really liked it. Unfortunately for us, it's dependent on cell coverage and we drop out of that often and would "lose" each other on the map.

    Custom GPS Mounting

    The Group Ride Radio for the Garmin Tread has a couple different functions - one of them is a literal radio and the other shows other people in your group on the map (similar to the Polaris PIDD/7S gauge capability). The antenna is so the GPS can locate itself separately from the normal GPS...

    Custom GPS Mounting

    I'm working on a custom mount for my Garmin Tread since Arctic Cat won't have their GPS Trail Mounting Kit in stock until at least late February or early March. I've purchased a GPS mounting plate from Travis at Barn of Parts (BOP) and am expecting delivery by the end of the week. A friend is...

    Battery Issue

    Not a clue - it looks there's a batch of bad voltage regulators out there. Wiring looked just fine on the sled, especially in areas of known issues. When they tested the regulator, voltage going in was good, coming out was not good.

    Battery Issue

    Ended up toasting my voltage regulator. TWICE. First one was in after all the warranty work and rebuilding was complete on my sled. Second one was just put back in last week when we got the sleds up north. My dealership hasn't seen much of this issue before (back-to-back voltage regulators...

    Coolant hose protectors

    I don't believe there were any changes to how those hoses were routed through the front of the tunnel - yes, I'd still put them on.

    Looking at the closed loop, pros and cons.

    Something to think about that I completely forgot: You'll have to run an O2 sensor in order to use the closed loop system. No stock SideWinder muffler has the bung, which means you'll either need to drill a hole and weld the bung in place OR buy an aftermarket muffler. Based off your reply...
