I put a 1.75 Back Country on my 09 XTX. Need to clutch it for cross crountry riding. What is a good set up? Shockwave?

I am also curious. I have a 2010 XTX coming and the dealer is putting the 1.75 track on before I even pick up my sled. Should I be getting some clutch work done? I was planning on installing some Heel Clickers in the future.

If you are looking for bolt on kits I would contact ulmer racing. Allen will set you up(rider weight, lug height etc) and you should be bolt on and go. Gearing down to a 20tooth sprocket would probaly be a big help with that track as well and its cheap.

I would also gear down before even thinking about the clutches. Changing the upper gear from 21 to 20 is probably the most cost efficient way since you can use the same chain.

Do you guys think it would be a good idea to drop a gear going to a 136 cobra from a 121 ripsaw? I guess I never gave it any thought up until right now. now would be the time to do it when i have it all apart. Thanks

You dont have to, the xtx uses the same gearing as the shorties and I had a cobra on mine last winter and it was fine. The 1.75 is heavy and moves alot of snow so thats why I think they regear with that one.

Yes you can use same chain for 19/39. that is what I have done with a 1.75 backcountry track.

Clutching w/1.75
This will sound way to simple and cheap but it worked on my 2009 XTX w/ 9 tooth extros and stock gearing, I ride in the pacific nw at 4-7,000ft, mostly on trails but also do some powder riding when its around. Stock weights w/ the heaviest rivits Yamaha sells in the first two holes and the stock rivit in the outer hole, pulls like a frieght train and hooks up like mad. Havent been beat at the airstrip yet against some heavy competition and its wonderfull corner to corner.
