I have never taken the starter motor, bendix, starter gear and wires and put them on a scale but I would guess they are probably about 10lbs. Then you would have to add the battery and battery mounting to that… so let’s say about a 13 lb penalty for my e-start kit… which for the convenience of off camber starting I feel is worth it!
Are your kits any good?
Do you have any diamond s cans for a 9r. Need that and battery kit.
Happy new years Cole.
You will have to tell me. I don’t like review my own products and I think you may have some experience ??… unfortunately I am out of Diamond S products for the season . Happy new year!
I got a cvcustoms kit about a month ago. I think it’s awesome. Not only does it shed about 13 lbs off the front of the sled but it really opens up that side of the sled for visual checks after your ride. I’m sure it creates enough room to change a Quickdrive belt without removing the battery. I think it’s a very well designed and built kit that I’ll be installing on every sled I own in the future. He has stated that it may not start your sled first thing in the morning if it’s real cold outside. I was pleasantly surprised that it started my boost yesterday morning when it was -16 C. Thanks Cole for a great kit!
I put them on all my sleds. They are awesome. Just razzing Cole.
for the weight savings alone, its $$$ well spent
excellent instructions, excellent components, im very happy with mine

Curious how they mount… I’m in need of a battery relocate for a tunnel dump exhaust on a Boost
They do not work with the tunnel dump as a standard kit but I have had a few customers buy them and modify the mount on location and factory e-start harness… here is a picture for reference.
Just got my kit! Excited to get it installed ! FYI look at the business card included. It has a QR code with the installation instructions. (which I did not notice and ended up calling Cole - LOL! )
This entire kit is smaller than the lithium battery I have in my sled right now. I'm sure I'm not saving much in weight since I already have a lithium battery but the space savings looks huge! It'll make it easier to work on QD for sure!
FYI before I found this post I had the dealer put a lithium battery in my wife's sled - $289.99 - and it wont start her sled dammit! Looks like she'll be getting a kit too if this works as well as everyone says it does.

Interesting. So what is the brand / part number on the lithium battery that comes with this kit? I’m surprised the lithium batter your dealer went with won’t start it, but the battery with this kit will.

The battery in this kit is not strictly lithium.
Has cobalt for the added child slavery CC Amps.
(Mine works at -20F)
Just got mine installed over the weekend, sent a pic to a friend who just installed the same kit and he said his wouldn't start his sled after sitting overnight at the cabin in 0 degree temps. I hope you are right and he is wrong. Haven't had a chance to test mine yet other than in the shop. Very cool setup and easy install - everything, battery included, only weighs two ounces more than the stock parts (not counting the battery) that I took out! The only hard part was getting that damn large bolt behind the exhaust out! Some gorilla put mine in at the factory. I have an aftermarket exhaust so mine was easy to get to - anyone with a stock exhaust would be wise to pull it first. Even at that I seriously thought about drilling a hole in my belly pan so I could get my air tools to it!
I've always found that when starting a polaris 850 when cold its best to give it a short crank 1 to 2 seconds to charge up the fuel pressure then wait a couple seconds and crank it again. With this method they usually fire right up.
