    Anyone familiar with a revving sound, that isn’t the engine??

    Its the ROV, my 22 did the same thing, a weird huffing sound.

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    The Xterrain is the only 900r I would consider, good choice! Just wish it was faster . :) Keep us posted on your experience

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    The 19 SRX tends to be the fastest because it has the old style spindles (lower) and was the 1st year for lowered front springs and rear torsions. The front lowering springs were used in subsequent years as well but they stopped using the lower rear torsions in ‘21. Really any 17 to 18 slide...

    TAPP Set up 998

    Thanks for the insight! Might be buying a TAPP and it’s not much more money up front to get the roller spider vs button, but if you want to upgrade a button seems more expensive. Was just wondering if there were gains to be had with roller (I imagine that’s why you did it).

    TAPP Set up 998

    How do you like the roller spider assembly? Is it still quiet? I know @KnappAttack mentioned it may be noisier so am curious if there is an advantage having the rollers over the buttons

    EPS Conversion?

    Exactly like factory, it IS the factory version.

    EPS Conversion?

    $1100 to $2000 depending where you buy and if you buy Yamaha (cheaper) vs Arctic Cat parts.

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    I had a similar experience to @STAIN . I have a 2019 and had a 2022 for a season. The 22 was setup EXACTLY the same way as my 19, same tune, same track/studs, etc. The 19 was always faster. I ended up selling the 22 and putting factory EPS on my 19....

    EPS Conversion?

    I'm not sure we have anyone on the forum who will make a post like RockerDan did with super precise pics and such. I tried to take pics myself but none of them seem to be in focus and I dont have the patience to make them look good and put circles/arrows. As @earthling pointed out, everything is...

    ADAPT Verses TAPP

    I'm potentially interested in this option as well to replace my TEAM. SO no longer running this combo? It didnt work well?

    Dreaded Chain Case Crack Got Me!

    Thats what I paid for factory OEM EPS ($1100 USD)...there's a thread here on what parts to order. I installed it on my 2019 .

    Dreaded Chain Case Crack Got Me!

    Been there, done that (CK3 Belt drive conversion $2k). Blew a belt in less than 1000 miles and sold the whole kit after. It's not reliable for trail riding....chaincase is the only thing that can handle the abuse.

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    I don’t think you would gain that much, not 10mph. The Rave 850s are all slower than the comparable renegade 137 850s. It’s gotta be that pps suspension slowing them down. And in general all 900r are slower and DOO speedos are way off. So I don’t think a 900r in a lynx 137 would be fast. The...

    New track offering, 1.3 Arrowhead

    Who will be the 1st to try this track?! https://sledtrack.com/product/camso-9438h-ice-arrowhead-130-snowmobile-track/ 1.3 lugs, with an interesting take on the studs being angled. It’s a 2 ply fully clipped. Hard to get over the MSRP, but looks interesting and hopefully more durable than the...

    EPS Conversion?

    A couple of pages back, the complete list is already there, both Yamaha and CAT numbers. :)
