Got the sled out riding and MAN... its pretty dang fast. 10# is pretty quick!! im having some boost creep issues with the turbo, so it will come up to around #14 if i hammer it in the deep for a while.. but it works out nice.. when i need more power it comes on... and i dont need much mroe then 91 to run 14# safe at elevation.

here are some videos of the beast in action... now time to work on the suspension!!! thanks to all who helped me figure out my tuning.. its pretty fun to get to ride something like this you built!!

Neat sled man!! Did it lose much weight when swapped into the Doo chassis? Good work man, very cool ;)!
 
note to self, dont pump fist when climbing, it upsets weight distribution!!

That's funny! ;)!

Nice job on the swap!
 
Great vids :-) Funny to hear the yammie coming.... ehhhh Doo.... ehh I'm confused.
Great build yamadoo
 
Killer buddy the 4cyl boost Yamahas do sound the best hands down!!!

Doesn't matter what it looks like... as long as it sounds / performs like that.... SWEET !

p.s. I still have a "thing" for the Rev chassis. one of the best imho.
 
oh yeah, i get excited everytime i hit the key on the bad boy!! the thing sounds so nice.. the tunnel dump aint to loud but allows the thing to have the nice straight piped 4 banger sound!!

and yeah, veedy, i know what you mean, im no yami guy.. i just like the power!! and its a really fun conversation sled.. the intake out the hood.. then when you start it...
 
yeeehaaaa it's a cool sled :-)
 
Im not sure on the weight, its DEFINATLEY lighter then an RX, but aint no rev!!

for the summer the sled is very possibly going full chromoly tube chassis and a impulse stlye kit im going to build... could be VERY fun. and a heck of a lot lighter.

its a ski heavy type of sled, but the flipper deals with that issue in short order!!
