Rusty for you being the forum know it all you should know that clutching works in a pendulum. You have to rob Peter to pay Paul. Anyone who says you can clutch it to "fix it" means you steal performance from somewhere else. Until someone has the sack to meet up and ride with me to show me otherwise, your opinions mean nothing to me ? All you got out of the original post was the "boat anchor" because you are somehow infatuated with that. Go back and read the original post from start to finish and tell me I did not hit the nail right on the head for the Boost. And if you still can't comprehend the post, I will summarize for you. A lot of AVERAGE riders are going to think the Boost is the greatest thing ever. And that is why we have so many forumners thinking I'm crazy and the Boost isn't a boat anchor. Go be average, racing up a little hill, high fiving your buddies, and drinking Coors Light with your Boosts.
Not sure where you get this information, looking at specs l see the same stroke on both 850 and 900
Hey do whatever you want.
Trying to figure out if your mad because I'm not taking your advise or because i don't worship keith curtis or what. I know who you are and have seen your videos. You are newer to the sport and trrying to make a living in it. That is why you pipe up keiths name. I get it. I don't have anything to prove. Friends of mine were jackson hole winners. Rob kincaid was a friend of mine since you live in victor. Worked in victor years ago.People i learned from used to race cross country against kirk and rex Hibbert. The fact is, i dont like shorter limiter straps. Makes ill or heavy handling sled. Keith does it and thats fine. He is a better rider and 20 years younger. He is also a hill climber. Betting his setup and calebs setup are different. Only reason i bring this up is there is more than one way to skin a cat. The matryx is packaged more to the front and with shock adjustments is easily manageable in a kaos.Im not here to make you mad. I know you were just trying to help.
Suspension doesn't effect it being a boat anchor. You can't tune the Suspension to get rid of lag and the fact the sled is massively tip heavy. Bring you perfectly tuned machine out so I can show you set up hardly matters.
Have you been closet drinking coors light again
It's both but there is more to the equation. Suspension set up is huge. More planted and you use more energy. If setup too rarey, and your out of control, could use as much or more energy. Powder is effortless and hard snow goes the other way. Then there is letting the sled do the work like turning to right to let sled roll left instead of horsing on it. There is also a reason a lot of people ride a na better than a turbo. I could go on.
I picked mine up yesterday, but still had to take the 9R out today. I'm waiting for 3' of fresh to break the Boost back out. However I am heading back to Seeley in a couple weeks to ride with Caleb again and I plan on taking it along with the 9R now that he has his boost as well. We are going to do a Boost day if the snow is semi deep. I just wish Rusty would come with us so he could come tune Caleb and I's stock clutching ?
Stock might be the way to go. Caleb runs a stock can and it doesn't seem to hinder him one bit. I just like looking at my cool blue Ti can when I unload my hot pocket ?
