I just put a schmidt bros clutch kit on my sled and im hearing a little rattling. I dont remember if it was like that last yr. I checked around and the roller bolts are tight but move back and forth because of the sleeve in there not allowing them to befully snug. I dont remember there being...
I was looking at the hyfax I replaced and there seems to be about an inch or so of rail without hyfax on it. I slightly over trimmed my hyfax compared to the one I took off, maybe 1/4"-1/2". It does look like the rear skid wheels will keep the track away from the uncovered portion of the skids...
No overdrive in the clutch.
I have the most traction with 96 studs, he has none. I used to beat him out of the hole anyway but now I have a clutch and he has etec.
Anyone race against an 800 etec? How did you do? My buddy just traded in his 07 skidoo 800 for a 12 skidoo 800 etec shorty with 1.25" track. I have an 09 fx nytro rtx se and I just put on a schmidt bros stage 2 clutch kit with an air intake kit and stock exhaust mod. Last year with his stock...
Shaper bars on my stock skis work pretty well. You really can't gas this sled through the corners. Go in hot, let off and then roll on the throttle as you are coming out of the corner. The torque lifts the skis and makes it push.
Ok, I just installed a clutch kit, cleaned the clutches with brake cleaner and then went to put it back on the trailer from the grass in back of my house. The belt was slipping and smoked a bit. I found out my emergeny brake was on! :o| Dumb a$$! Then as I was started to put it back on and...
thank you, I realize that. I was just lying on my back, under the sled with my hands over my head. I didn't have much leveraged and just lightly turned with the wrench. I didn't crank on it, have done it 3 years in a row with no problems getting the filters on or off.
Im interested in this as well. Although I kept a battery tender on my 09 nytro this winter, I may be changing it since its 3 years old and if it dies out on the trail your screwed!!!
Most of the wrenches are too small for the filter that is on there. I took the new filter with me to the auto store and made sure the wrench fit. I ended up getting the filter wrench that looks like a pair of chanel locks but the teeth are curved. Just be careful if you use it to tighten the...
We the instructions said to take out all 3 rivets. This is bs. I need to call them monday. The first rivet was easy and then the others were difficult. i got one with all 3 rivets out, one partially drilled out because they are a bitch and one with just the first one out. I even cut my hand...
I got stage 2. he only sent me one threaded weight and said to install in the last hole. The directions says to remove flyweights and drill out all 3. There is where the confusion comes in. There are 3 weights and 3 rivets!! He only gave me 3 weights to put in the tips. I just drilled out...
Im working on the clutch kit right now and Schmidt brothers is not open or not answering the phone. Of course the sled is in a million pieces so I hope someone can help that has put on of these on.
My main question is to do with the fly weights. The directions say to drill the 3 rivets...
Thanks guys! I didn't think I was doing anything too crazy. All the weight goes to the skis and believe me they turn! I rode my nytro back to back with an 800 ptek rev and the rev doesn't lift the front end in the corners like the nytro. You can almost clamp it down in the turn and it just...
I only have 6" shapers on my sled and didn't touch the limiter strap but I changed my riding style. This is not a sled like a rev that you can come into a corner and then hammer the gas in the turn and pull out. The torque pulls the skis too easily. So, I come into corners faster than I would...
Actually, I AM VERY SORRY!!! it was FIX power sports, not schmidt bros. I had a brain lapse and it was wrong of me to falsely accuse Schmidt Bros. I corrected it.
