    2018 winder cutting out for no reason

    I was wondering if anyone experienced their engine cutting out under throttle. I was cruising at 40 mph and it felt like I ran out of gas. I pulled over and as soon as engine was at idle it was like nothing was wrong. This happened several times throughout the 120 mile trip. The engine runs...

    draining battery

    I have put in 2 factory batteries and they both died and couldn't be saved. this all happened in the 1st year of owning my brand new 2018 sidewinder. I brought it in to shop so they could check the sled out to see if there was a draw causing the dead batteries and they found nothing. I then went...

    Hurricane race bundle

    I have a 2018 sidewinder which I installed the hurricane race bundle in ( 240,270,290 ). I also have the hurricane trail muffler which makes these tunes work perfect. I ride in Maine where the wardens are all over sleds with turbos. They want to see the exhaust and see if it's been modified. I...

    Hurricane race tunes/ flash to pass

    I installed the 240,270 and 290 race bundle on my 18 sidewinder this year. It works unbelievable and has so much power. The only problem I'm having is the flash to pass button only works when it wants to ( usually for the 1st 30 minutes or so) then it won't shift through the tunes unless I do it...

    Primary clutch weight bolts

    I was curious to why the weights bolt and nuts are to be torqued to 4 pounds. Would it matter if I just tighted them up real good? They still have lots of wiggle room. I read somewhere that they should only be hand tight.

    Best carbide for 6.9 pilot skis

    I have the pilots on my 18 sidewinder 137 . I feel the dual runner doesn't truly work for me. I have lots of push in corners and etc I know that I am actually only running on single runner until I turn but it feels like the outside carbide does very little. What are others using on their 6.9...

    2018 flash options

    I am trying to decide on flash options for my 2018 sidewinder. I truly like the hurricane flash bundles they have but can't decide between the stock muffler 225hp, 240hp, and 270hp and the trail muffler and header, 240hp, 270hp, and 300hp. Or drop the header and run 240hp, 270hp and 290hp tune...
