1100 turbo clutching

[devin_bajus]

Hey guys, im new to this site and i recently just purchased my first sled. A 2012 m1100 turbo 153. I want to get a clutch kit for it, but am unsure on what to get. Most of my riding will be under 3000ft, with a couple trips to the mountains a year. What would you reccomend?

most of what ive read on previous posts is shouldn't have to mess with clutching.

If your sleds stock I wouldn't worry about it, these sleds run same hp no matter what elevation clutching will stays the same.

I have a turbo dynamic can on it right now. Last night i was hitting the rev limiter at full throttle. It has mountain clutching in it right now. Should i just get the flatlander clutching from the dealer. I really dont know anything about clutching.

When I had just a can on my sled I had to add some weight to the cam arms to stay off the rev limiter, I bought adjustable weights for that left everything else factory. I'm not sure the different specs cat has between low and high elevation clutching for these sleds.

Clutching...

If you ride your sled at low elevation, you will be breaking belts, as the clutches will shift out too far. A steeper helix will likely be in order, as well as adjustable weights to prevent hitting the rev limiter. Consult your dealer for low altitude clutch caliberation & see what cat recommends, and add extra weight in primary to account for the free breathing exhaust.

Unless you know what you are doing you won't be able to address the rev limiter problem with weights at lower elevation (at least according to kany folks on hardcoresledder). A tune is the simplest way to fix it... The JD tune is only $199, but I do not know if anyone has used it at elevation as well.
