Ulmer Clutch kit settings after gear change???

[murdered141]

I ordered the additional tungsten weights for the primary cams from Ulmer today. Ahead of getting them I decided to play around with the shims on the cams some more. I now have them loaded with toe = 4 & 4; mid = 0 & 0; Tip = 4 & 1-tungsten weight.
WOW!!!! whoever said you cant lift the skis off the ground on a Viper is WRONG!!! This thing lifts the skis for about 20-30 ft off the line and then pulls like a freight train down low and all the way through mid-range. Back off and nail the throttle and it jumps forward. Engagement is right at 3000 rpm. I am now running about 13 mph faster at top end and maxing out at about 8900 - 9000 rpm hitting the rev limiter only when I crest a bump or get into the powder. It needs a little more weight at the toe so I think the tungsten weight will do it and get this thing down to 8700 - 8800 rpm max without hitting the limiter. I am now running right at about 98-100 mph.
I had Ulmer machine my secondary for an 8DN belt and had the sled flashed with last years update. I also have studs down the middle of the track, 2 per lug and Stingray air box mod. I am pretty sure I am now going to be able to keep up if not get ahead of my two buddies with their Polaris 800's. I was only a sled length behind them last weekend after about a 1000 ft.

Isn't it an awesome feeling when you finally get your sled dialed in and it's doing that you want

Absolutely. I am at work now and can't wait to get back on it as soon as I get home. It's the same feeling I used to get when I was excited for something as a kid.
