Hi everyone,i am new to the forum.just picked up a 06 kodiak 450,my first auto,does the engine braking become less noticable as the motor breaks in or does it stay the same ?.i know my sled felt better after a couple hundred miles.

Welcome to the forum. The engine braking is just something you have to get used to as it won't go away.

Welcome to the forum

Having two machines to compare, I noticed that the engine braking doesn't go away but becomes less after use. The difference was quite noticable when I would swap between the machines when I first got the second but now, after they're both broken in, they feel pretty similar according to the "butt dyno".

Thanks, i thought it might lessen as the motor breaks in.

kind of weird to get used to then its okay-kinda have to adjust your riding a bit.at least thats what i did.but on the other hand you can go down some rather nasty downhills in low range without having to worry ay all-then it shines
