The rear shock is according to this.

The shock package was one of the main reasons I went with the LTX-LE vs the XTX LE 137.

What is that from your bike?

That was Yamaha FZ-1

Ya same here it's a good thing there really isn't any accessories out or the performance companies haven't realeased anything cause I would probably buy everything waiting for the sled then not be able to afford to pay for the sled lol

LOL I actually don't want mine yet. I don't have the will power to stay off it. My back yard will look like a 747 landed on it. I'm gonna leave mine at friends an hour away...

Center shock is an HPG. They are not both QS3's. One of the main reasons I passed. That and I want to say they didn't offer the kashima coated shocks on this model.....been a while, but I think that is the case.

Same thing for me... QS3-R would rules

It's going to be very difficult when I do have it not to start it they say the worse thing you can do is run a new sled in the garage this causes the rings not to seat properly . That you should resist all temptation until you can get it out in the snow and ride it hard to seal those things good

Yes... i td s hard.. but for me.. I follow what it's write in the book. I don't thing running throttle hard in first few new hour is as good as we heard...

Here is a good read I have always heard a babies engine in break in will not be as fast and after reading this article it makes sense . My father and I both ordered the same sidewinder he will break his in by the book I will break mine in by this article then we are going to race several passes and see what the result is

The manual states that for warranty issues. Broken in hard makes a fast, durable engine. The rings need to be set to prevent blow-by for maximum compression. Warm the engine and make a full throttle run down a strip for a few seconds. Turn around and do it again. Take the sled in and let her cool down. Once cool, do it again. As said already, do not let the engine get too hot. Once trail riding, be sure to vary the throttle position often and don't cruise at the same rpm's. Do occasional full throttle bursts like when coming out of a corner. I have had several new 4 strokes over the years and all of the one's I broke in like this were fast and reliable. I did buy a 40th anniversary used from an older rider back in 09 who boasted how he broke it in by the book. It was the slowest apex I ever owned. The guy I sold it to complained how it was the slowest, by far of any of the multiple apex's he rode with up in Canada. I had a 14 Doo 1200 that I broke in hard. I didn't have that sled long due to losing my job and sold the sled. Several months later, the buyer contacted me asking what I did to the sled; clutching, etc. I said nothing, it was bone stock and asked him why he asked. He said because his was the fastest 1200 in his riding group. Real world experience is how I gauge things.
