600 pro: performance parts.

[magician]

Been riding a 600(660) for a few years. Would like to get into the new pro chassis. Looking at the 600 again. Was just wondering what add-ons are available and what works or doesn't work. This will be a mountain sled. Looked at SLP and at Bikeman. Not a lot out there that I can find. Lots of stuff on the 800. Any real world experience would be great. Thanks..

660 kit from Carls Cycles for the new 600 DC CFI-2 motor.
Big bore that gives great performance upgrade...

Aerocharger 53 turbo kits.

Like mh stated.Carls 660 and rip it. There's not much out there for us 600 riders. My plan is a new pro 600(if offered with all the new stuff) Carls 660, Carls clutching and Holz suspension.

I hear ya on the 800... which, on the surface, seems like a No-brainer.

Just like the new "Quick drive" low-inertia drive has less "gyro" effect on the sled and accelerates faster...

The 64mm stroke of the 600 (compared to the 70mm stroke of the 800) just plain feels more nimble than the larger 800 and has a snappier throttle. The smaller rotating/recip mass of the 600 imparts less of this "gyro" effect and allows the sled to be thrown around easier. Very evident with smaller riders. Plus a carls 660 would be pretty hard to keep up with on a stock 800.

For me, in a PRO RMK chassis, if I were to turbo one... I would choose the 600 since I do not need to have the highest hp sled on the snow (that is what 12+ lb boost race-gas turbo 800's and Nytros are for). Riding a modern, well sorted, 600 turbo PRO will be one those things that make you go HMMM.

Yeah twas all in fun

But for me at 220 pounds and 6'2" a 660 wouldnt have the grunt. Pa head and clutching/camo ext. 163 works for me. Then again at my size i could handle an xp. Just couldnt keep the bulkhead in one piece.
