Saw many the last few years. This years are much better. Was looking at them yesterday. That was what kept me from picking one up last year though. They were very poorly built till the new owners took over. Glad to see some big improvements.
I do like the shock body and reservoir diameter more on the ohlins. They are a very nicely made shock too. Both are a good choice and I do not regret my elka choice now that I am dialed in with it. I will say that I now have a vr1 850 with dynamix, the chassis feels nice and steering is biggest...
As a guy that is in the 6’5” 300+ range myself I have replaced my stock shocks with Elka. I would send them to hugest to valve and spring. Hygear kept trying to give me the stock torsion springs, what I did find worked out well for torsions though is I went to hygear personally and they gave me...
Just looked at them, everything I had been feeling I needed when adding weights to my heavy hitters this seems to want to cover in a little diff way. Always felt these sleds wanted/needed a weight that is heavy at the heal to help with acceleration and that’s where a lot of the slipping came from.
Ran C&s razors and xcs skis on my sidewinder over the last several years. Xcs outter keels wore out very quick with bad snow and its design. So I chatted with slydog at HayDays and ordered a set of commands.
On hard pack/groomed (even when it got sugary) these things almost sucked themselves...
I use the gap app a lot too actually. Have both loaded on ns1. Gap app gives all important info except fuel levels and stuff. So I toggle between them through the day
Hello brain trust! Put a big pump in last season, I have always run max spool 17 and had about stock mpg with stock pump and closed loop. But switched to multi map and wastegate also last season and the oxygen sensor went. With the short season by time I got a new sensor on I couldn’t confirm...
Great to hear. Ordered 2 last night. I know there was lots of issues with cold and starting and that worried me and why I held off. For 12lb savings off the back bumper and better cranking I figured we would be sufficient. Use these a ton with rc cars over the years so know the benefits but also...
Anyone had luck with these things on a daily rider stored in cool and not on chargers constantly yet? My battery just shitted out this summer an so did the Mrs’ on her vr1 so in market for 2. Obviously hers is no biggie as there is a rope that works sufficiently if needed. Thanks all.
I’m in same point. I want new front spindle, hand controls and power steering but don’t wanna redo all the little things I have to revise the sled and have exactly what I already own. Soooo I’m probably going to stash it for lake days, snow an grass drags and a spare and just have something with...
