08 vs. 09 front end specs?

[BLUEBALLER]

The problem with the analogy from auto upgrades to sled upgrades is that I know everyone got to test drive there car, truck ect and if they didn't like the way it handled they wouldnt have purchased it. With snowmobiles I don't Know of one dealer that will let you test drive your new sled before you purchace it. If you were one of the lucky ones to find a place last spring where yamaha was letting people test ride fx- Nytro's even those sleds where not the production models and there were many changes. So yes if there is a saftey concern with the sled not handling corectly or breaking they should have a recall and if people want to upgrade the parts on there own Yamaha should sell the parts for cost.

I agree 100%

You hit the nail 100% on the head. We cannot test them and have to rely on what we read etc... No Im not saying if they upped the power etc we should not get an upgrade. But I am saying that changing 10 things in the front end after a single seaon is very substantial.
