cosmetics for 155 rmk shift?

[polaris dude]

well, I am getting a shift 155, and I need some advice on the track length and the hood.

First off, I ride quite a bit on the trails(inbetween the mountains) and i don't think a 2.4 lug would do very good on a hard pack, and would need replacing a lot. Unless i am wrong(and if i am then say so) I am considering getting a track with only a 1.75inch lug, or a 2inch lug. Is there a maker out there that has that size in a 155?


Also, I was wondering about the hood, if there was any new ones with a different color, or at least a decal set for it, i mean the black is just too plain for me.

Ive got a 08 700 RMK 155 with 2.4inch paddles and ride a decent amount of trails in between deep powder riding and i havent had a problem yet nor noticed any wearing on my lugs. I would advise you to get a set of scratchers, and also if I were u I would see if your rails are coming with boogie wheels or not, because that will help with your hifax wearing. Hope this helps.
As for the hood, I know that all the shifts come black, but Polaris does sell decal sets of different designs that you can install. Or I am sure u can google or find someone on this site to make u a custom set of decals. Hope all works for ya.

Second on the ArcticFX graphics... they make some of the best stuff out there that fits the sled perfectly.

Jordan, Andrea and the crew at ArcticFX work very hard at pulling off some very cool stuff. Good USA qualit at work!!

They can also do custom work VERY reasonably and have a quick turnaround time.

Here is one that they did for a project that I was working on. The hood was super thrashed but the kit from ArcticFX made it look great again.

Here is the one they did for Paul at SledSolutions

Another one

As far as the track goes...

I dont know of any short lugs in the 155" length except the 155" "Assault style" comp track. Pricey though.

 

[polaris dude]

looks nice, i browsed through their stuff, and it didn't look to me that they had any shift rmk stuff, it all said dragon on it =/(i used the search function so if it is as good as snowests, then I probably missed the shift rmk sections)

and what is the comp track going for?

 

[mountainhorse]

Dragons and shifts are the same hoods.... They will print anything on it that you want... your imagination is the limit.

The comp track is like $800 list...

Tracks USA cant get them... try " freeagent" on the forum here.

polaris dude,
Shift 155 and Dragon share the same chassis,other than shocks and motor size. The decals listed under Dragon will fit your's as well as all IQ chassis sleds.

The 2.4 won't be the best for trail,but if you get some scratcher's and use them and watch your temps you'll probably do OK.Don't run it too long at high speed without cooling down the track or you will lose lugs.

Only 4 months till early season riding here or I could truck bed ride it up to the snowfields for a last fix

Another vote for ArcticFX Graphics. Here is mine:

Braapwraps does some really cool stuff too. Most of Wes' stuff is Ski-Doo, but I know he was branching out to the other brands too.

I'd buy from one of them.
