Had a little time the last couple days so figured id put a sled together for the wife! Parted the turbo out, but just have a hard time getting away from this chassis/motor! Plus I have a whole PILE of parts for these things in the shop so this is what I ended up with, nothing much...

Vanamburg hillclimb 1"+ tunnel on a ZR bulkhead, custom D&R, composite chaincase from the SS600's (about 2.5 lb savings) Rifle drilled shafts, 10t whal combo drivers, KMOD rear, stock front MC susp (gunna paint the springs) boss seat, fiberglass hood, 900, SLP ceramic coated twins, VF3's, ya know the norm!

cell phone pic, get some better ones later. Wife wants pink springs, and flames on the hood, could look OK I guess. Let me know whatcha guys think!

I told her that titanium looks better than pink! But some exit tripple rate ti's would look the best by FAR!

Matty, Looks like a factory rebuild? Is that a 151" track? Can't see where the K-Mod mounts in the raised back section. Paint the front suspension Titanium w/ the pinky shocks!

Looks nice, does she like the stock parabolic skis? I know my wife doesn't.

Put the woody's dooley carbides on them and they handle like a dream! I even run them on my wife M7 (by her request) after riding my kk with them on. even side hill like a dream (Owen this is a hint)

I'll have to look into that. I never minded them on my sled, but we fell into a bunch of Simmons skis last year, so those are on a bunch of the sleds. Didn't notice a lot of difference on sidehilling, but much nicer on the trail. (I know, who spends time on the trail....)

I agree though, a lot of people seem to dislike the stock skis, and I never had a problem with them. Sounds like different carbides make them even better.

I ran the turbo sled with C&A pros, I like the stockers over em 10 x's better!

The powderpros have been my ski of choice for this chassis over the years, probably gunna invest in another set!

Very nice!! :face-icon-small-coo Great job there!

I used an Ole's riser for my 1M. Gave me some lift, and moved the bars forward at the same time. Works perfect for me.

I also like the Powder Pros. Wish I would have tried them first and not put the money out on other skis, but oh well.....at least I have them now and I wouldn't give them up for anything! :face-icon-small-hap
