SO I just picked up an 08 husky 510 FI with a MH kit. I was curious if anyone on here has any experience with that particular bike. Its already pretty well set up for snow I think. All I know that I'm going to do to it is add a Dobek Gen 4 on top of the JD Jetting fuel controller. I also am thinking of setting it up with a second battery as it might spen a night or two outside in the CO high country. If anyone has any specific info on this bike in the snow I'd love to know. Thanks.
Anyone riding a Husky 510 FI bike..??

prior owner not on this site but was an avid snowbiker in WA. I am taking the bike to my town in CO at 8800' we ride up to 12000+' and its much colder there then in the cascades. The bike has a jd jetting controller, nice motor wrap, and a skin filter over a wire frame in the airbox. He said he never had any issues with fuel getting in the oil at least up to 10000' and down to about 20deg.
I love and have owned these bikes in supermoto trim and know how to make them run like a bat from hell on the road but the snow is new to me.
The previous owned had rigged up a second battery to give more cranking power when cold (bike has a bike master gel cell in it) Which I might do as I see alot of below zero temps a good ten days a year of -30 or more.
I'm hoping it runs great with no fuel in oil like the previous owner said but I'm leaning towards a dobek just in case there not to spendy for a good fix. let me know if you get your on snow and we can work through any bugs together.
Oh and no thermostat.

Mine has an Arrow exhaust with no spark arrester or cat. Also the power up kit with the o2 lamba sensor removed. Maybe removing the o2 sensor has something to do with it not getting fuel in the oil who knows.
