Make sure you wear a hair net, LOL I'm sure you are fully shifting out.. One way you can check it is to take a black permanent marker and run a line from top of sheave to the center. After a wide open run you will see the line erase itself by the belt riding against the sheaves. Your remainder of line showing indicates how far you have shifted out.

btw my 1.375 Top Gun II hit my heat sheild near the flex pipes on the headers
What the diff adding to the heal or Mid.....what are the pros and cons
Whats your set up???
I got no marks and Ulmer recommends 1.450 Woody's which are the same size at the 1.50 Top Guns... My Tip weight is out and have mine in the mid. But, I have not a good condition to try a good top end run and now my lakes are done.... So I will not get a chance until next year now, unless I take a ride up north...

Then I guess all the torture and excercise you put yourself through :exc: , not eating pizza on Friday and Saturday nights with the boys and having a few cold ones , just so you could lose your belly was all for nothing Maybe now that you're lighter you're getting less traction, seen that happen before. Sometimes, using the skinny lightweight dickpuppet doesn't work

I still tell my Ski Doo buddies they got screwed when Doo used propaganda of "Lighter, Faster and Better" in '08 as a marketing tool. The only time they are better is is you're a serious a ditch banger then the weight is noticeable. Faster - Yes, they look adorable when the skis come off the snow, how many XP's do hear running impressive top end at 150hp like the Apex?

Well now you are talking a different ballgame. You need to lower the front end down where there is only 2" of travel and tighten the limiter strap. Put all the springs at the softest settings where the springs are ratteling, fronts and center. Fronts turn all valving comp and rebound to full soft. Rear skid torsion springs on full soft and compression/rebound on full soft. Tighten the limiter by 2 holes.... You will spin off the line with the limiter that tight, but it will top end more... as long as you have enough room to run it... You are going to need a good 2000-3000 feet to see it...
