The stockers on the Pro are rebuildable and can be valved for your wiehgt/ riding style like other aftermarket shocks.
Terra Alps billit head, tunnel - maybe black?
slp pipe kit, pcv, maybe 2.5 camo extreme?
some vents? if it needs it. we'll see. should be a fun bookndocking sled.

Like I stated in another post. Rode it again Saturday...we are going to sell alot of BETTER BOARDS for this sled. Watch and see!
Also note it will be really fun and interesting to try this chassis with the FOX Evol shocks. Got to ride back and forth with my raw setup with EVOL and Holz Alpha X to compare the feel on the pro and if the EVOL setup ads as much enjoyment to the pro as it does to the raw it will be simply amazing. Already incredible stock )pro-rmk)...but there is room for BETTER so the experts think (WINK WINK). It's being worked on by the best in the biz right now. COOL...man what an awesome sled!

Power??
So, what kind of power can they make in these? See the stock numbers from DTR came out, but dont worry to much.
Was impressed with PF racings 165-168 from the old Poo 800 with slp single, porting and reeds, but now the new 800 e-tec sports 163,9 in stock trim...
Anyone know of a really good running N/A Dragon with porting, pipe(s), reeds etc?? Or 860's?
Thanks,
RS

HP?
So what were the HP numbers on the new Pro Ride 800? This will make a big difference on what I will do for aftermarket..

Andy at GSR will be getting my shocks right off the bat to set them up for my weight and there will be a PG turbo under the hood some time next season.
after seein the regular RMK at the Fargo sled show a week and a half ago, I decided this machine will get a Fox shock setup for the front and rear. probly zero pro's from the rear valved for me and Evols up front. SLP's single, whenever it comes out.......Dealer has no problem with this so the warranty will be good, so no PC unless it burns down once. As far as steering, the bar & riser setup on the regular rmk was just about perfect, I just need about an inch more rise. Probly gonna put the Pro's black hood on right away and do a little powder coating. What I really want is the underseat heated storage and two speed automatic transmission that the Widetrack comes with! lol

We all saw those, but I think either that motor was a little worn or other dyno-related variables came into play. I rode an '11 Assault 144" last weekend and it felt like a lot more than 143 hp. The midrange was amazing and the top end was great too, I just dont think they will let those sleds out the door with less than 150.

Here is a look at the first prototype rear shock we just got finished for the 2011 RMK's. Fox EvolR rear track shock with new larger EVOL chamber which will help with bottoming resistance and it's rebound adjustable.
I like it
Chris, Will you be offering an Evol X in for the new Skid as well?
FTS... Will it remain the WE coilover with Valving?
Anthony said you have been working on Valving for the WE shocks... What are your goals with this and how has it been affecting the performance... (ie, what are you shooting for at improving/weak spots w/WE's)
Will you have the Pro-RMK for the remainder of the season?
Keep up the good work, Carls products always ROCK!!
Hope to see you at the Cust Appreciation days.
Look for this from SPG next season.. Waterproof too with easy access.
I'd get that in writing from your dealer... THEY will be covering your warranty then and not the factory. It's just not in the dealer hands like it was just 3 - 5 short years ago... They want photos, do spot checks and lots of other stuff now... The word is out thru the dealer network.... Cover a mod sled... and eat the repair yourself.
I've ridden the new sled plenty... IMO.. the Zero Pros will not have anything more to offer than the new WE coilovers. IMO... put your money into some custom valving from TCP or Carls... you will be spot on for your weight and riding style.
If you do switch them out... give me first dibs on the stock WE's???
The CF "look" hood in the Pure-Polaris accessories catalog will be a lot cheaper than the Parts dept replacement black one.
Look for custom hoods from FTX and SPG (Mesh and Plastic) for the fall season.
The tunnel on the new sled is pretty simple to remove/Replace... Powdercoating that sucker would go a long way towards giving you better performance in that snow flows better thru the tunnel, does not sick to the tunnel in lumps/clumps and keeps the sled from gaining weight.
I'm sure that F-bomb will be coming up with a trick setup on the running boards.
mountainhorse -- As far as the dealer covering the sled with the slp installed, thats what I have interpreted from him when I asked if my $700 spring cash could go towards it and he said it can be used to purchase anything he sells thru his dealership. We were discussing the new mapping and how he shouldn't have to reflash my new one when they install the exhaust. He's got a lot of faith in this new setup.....I'll make sure I'm not gettin screwed on that though. It'll get set in stone when the sled gets here this fall.
Now for the shocks. I ordered the regular RMK so there won't be any WE shocks to be sold. I'm gonna go with the Fox shocks mostly due to personal preference. Never dealt with anything other than Fox and ACT shocks and always had good results, so I'm just gonna do it that way, and it looks like Carl's has a sick setup waiting for me to order tomorrow afternoon already!
Black Hood -- I like the look of that carbon fiber deal but I would just as soon stick the straight black hood on it just to keep the base color all the same because im going to put an ArcticFX kit on it so i want the color under the graphic consistent.
