Just purchased star suspension kit and new ice attack xt track, curious on feedback from the those that have done it, what's the transformation like on the trail
 
It takes bumps a lot better, no more back end hop. The track is a great compromise to picks. I also did oft steering relocate, Duce boy dual carbides, handles great through the trail, real fast.
 
Good to know thanks, elaborate on your steering relocate kit? I put snow trackers on last year and they worked great, sometimes would grab in the corners causing high siding, Robert at Star said 128" would eliminate this allowing back end to swing a bit??
 
It moves the steering post forward 8 degrees I believe, allowing for less force to steer and a slight rise. It still has a slight roll to it but its a huge handling difference. I also added a clutch kit that lowers engagement and I found that to give better throttle control at lower speeds. I like to refer to it as the sling shot effect, when your going slow then accelerate and it whips you back from the high engagement.
 
Which clutch jut did you go with?
 
I have the oft relocate and the star suspension with 128 ice attack, and it looks like we live in the same town.
If you want to take a look let me know.

Hey same town, that's cool. I'm also interested in your SB clutch kit. If your up to it, I could certainly swing by before the snow flies. Cheers
 
I am curious what stage SB clutch kit did you get? Would love to see specs on all that comes in kit for $400. I will pay for the info if you can tell me what is all in kit exactly so maybe can piece one together separately?
 
I have a friend of my fathers who owns a Yamaha dealership for years and years. I asked him what his top service tech says I should get for a clutch kit? So may go that route also. I will post specs up when I get them. Thanks Tim.
 
Schmidt bros stage 2 kit. It came with a machined helix, spring, rollers and bolts to replace the outer rivet weights.
 
I was happy with it....I used it for 2 years. I recently upgraded to a supercharger and with that needed to change the clutching thats all.
 
I have a SB stage 2 clutch kit if you want to buy it.....$100
Not sure how I missed this. If you still got it I would like to buy it. How many miles did you put on this kit? I sent you a pm with my number. Please call me. Thanks
