Thanks brother....I like the idea of more adjustment in heaters, as the hi/low back and forth can get annoying! Glad to hear they are hot....Is the thumb good and hot too? I added the Apex throttle lever to my 18 with a pumped up heater in the thumb, which it needed as stock thumb was not hot enough for minus 30.Hi Dan as for the hand warmers they work very well(comparing tp viper)On the highest setting at -10*c they acutally burn your hands!
The new variable control are actually 4 setting from low to high!(1/4 1/2 3/4 and full heat)
I went with the manual control for my shocks (no iact) I didn't think having a cable going to the skid would be reliable
And yes I am very impressed with hurricanes sm tune I did another 200km and it's seem to be getting stronger and stronger!!!!!
I forgot you could order the cats with or without the Elec suspension....very good.
I thought I read where a guy said you need to hit the button two times to get susp to change, and he did not seem to think it was great. So just wondered.
thanks
Dan

Not accurate, but alot closer then the DOOs.......I dont even use my SPeedo on cluster, just my Garmin for speed. I use the cluster for RPMS, PSI, and either clock or ODO(trip1) for day miles. Trip 2 is my seasonal. Having my 7'' garmin at my fingertips on riser has been best mod I ever did on any sled, started doing this since 2014.So i got out today and did another 200km!!
I now have 800km on my machine and it seems to be getting stronger and stronger!!!
Have a question..... Is the Speedo accurate on these sleds.???
The reason i am asking is because i was on the lake and really got the do a long pull and hit 123mph and still felt like it had more!! From what the hurricane gear calculator says I should only do 115mph?
(24/50 gearing)

You are good for about 118 real speed or so....I think stock speedo last I looked at these speeds can be up to 4 or 5mph high....Depends how many studs you have and if you may be spinning a tad too.

Has anyone tried a free flow muffler on the stock muffler
The thumb heater seems hotter then my viper was not a 100%positive? (It been awhile..lol)Hand hand warmers are definitely hotter especially when riding hard!!!!Thanks brother....I like the idea of more adjustment in heaters, as the hi/low back and forth can get annoying!

I ran in -27 on last Friday morning and hands were good! (NO hand guard either)
Yesterday at -10 my hands were litterally burning on high
You need to come up with Pan( hammer) and ride with up here so you can compare
