    Your next sled is going to be???

    My next sled could be an Arctic Cat 858 129" for the tighter trails if the right buyer takes over AC. I hear they are making near 180HP with the precision tune and it seems like the kinks have been figured out.... we shall see I also have over 8000 miles on my SW so that could get upgraded as...

    Clutching Help

    I run the same tune, clutch springs and weights, stock helix and I am running 80.4 grams in the weights(loaded) with the Ultimax belt to get around 9100rpm. They say the Ultimax drops rpm quite a bit, I haven't done the back-to-back testing to verify. I change my belt before 1500 miles...

    Idler wheels with studded track

    When I bought my sled the idler wheels were chewed up pretty bad, the prior owner had the track studded by the dealer and never checked tightness... needless to say many loose studs and chewed wheels at 1000 miles. all were replaced and now I'm at 8000 miles with no further issues!!

    Anyone else own too much crap that maint is stressful LOL

    I would think your front to rear balance is affecting the handling with the LS in it, do you know how much weight is added in the swap?

    Lets see that RX7 and share some details of the powertrain!! I love builds like that. I have a list myself but the thing that really simplified my life was selling the lake house, it free'd up time for all my other toys and hobbies. my home is enough maintenance and comes with enough equipment...

    Where Do You Go Now

    Where Do You Go Now

    I am obviously a big Yamaha fan, I started with a Vector, then a Viper and moved on to a Sidewinder. Now with them leaving the industry what maker are you going to? I have 8,000 miles on my SW, I will need to either get another trail sled to keep miles down on it or get a new/lower mile SW so I...

    Highest Speeds on Sidewinder/Thundercat

    Amazing accomplishment Fleecer!! I ride Maine too, the Moosehead area, I would love to see this in action. Best I have seen is 128 on my trail sled across the lake then I let off, I do not have it set up for top speed nor do I intend too. It's quite a handful at near 130. If you don't mind me...

    GM 2.7L turbo towing

    I have only pulled a two place with mine, tows better than my 5.3 6 speed Chevy did. I got about 12MPG with a lot of up and down hills from Boston to Moosehead in Maine, 275 miles or so. A 4 place would add 2000lbs or so and no more drag. I don't think it would be an issue at all.
