2014, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE... PREDICTIONS... RUMORS.

Keep the mechanical guage it works, only thing better would b a clear tank but that's not going to happen.

my 09 base RMK 700 was running 30-50*F cooler than a friend's brand new '13 PRO was on hardpack last weekend because of his restricted cooling capacity, ridiculous!!!

To be fair though, the new Pro's are a specific mountain sled. They were not designed to ride on hard pack snow. This is like you complaining that a Top Fuel dragster is idling too rough at stop lights. You need to take into consideration what the sled was designed for.

Move all the electrical components to a panel(except coils and EV solenoid) between the tank and airbox. This would clean up a lot of wiring and address wire and component heat/vibration issues. Side benefit, faster tear down.

1) Add bushings to the rear suspension...IMO "Stone-Age" mentality to run aluminum in bare steel tubes with only grease.

^thank you!

Had another thought on the electrical components location. Mold a recess and nutserts into the front of the fuel tank with a port plate. All components wired to an electrical master plug or a component port plate. If they need service, unplug the master, pull the tank with all the electrical components in one easy to service location. Components would be free of vibration with cooler temp location. Minimize wire harness. Centralized weight.
We have a wire harness that now makes almost a full circle in the chassis. It starts out at the stator. Ties to the fuel rail that rubs, chaffs, shorts out, and breaks down the life blood of the entire system, power. It then goes under the oil tank to the front of the clutch guard to plug into an assortment of electrical components or another harness. That wire harness either goes to the coil/EVS/Regulator plate or back up the over-structure to other components. Why? This could be simplified.
