Ok, so far this season the 900 has fun FLAWLESS to say the least and pulls like a friggen freight train, surpassing even my highest of expectations for the last 450+ miles.
With that said, I did have an odd occurance on the way back to the rig on our last ride, here's the full story so I dont leave anything out, lol.....
We got back on the trail after carving up a meadow and a little drag racing, and when I pinned it, the skis came up about 2 feet off the ground as always
D) and then a loud backfire and we were off to the races like normal. I thought to myself, 'Gee, that was wierd'. Another few miles down the trail we turned off and did some playing (climbing the road bank from a small pond about 25 ft below road level) and I wheelied up and came down a little crooked and it knocked the left side- panel loose
.... buttoned her back up, went again, fun fun fun.... Leaving back down the trail I pin it again and sure enough, another sudden backfire followed by the typical rocket-like acceleration I have come to expect from this thing. We rode another couple miles, and took an old side trail that was massively overgrown for the poor snowpack we have down low, so I put her into reverse, turned around, and headed back onto the trail, pulling a WOT wheelie as normal (I like to have fun, what can I say).... we then went immediatley down another little trail and had to back up again, no issues, went in and out of reverse perfectly normal.
So I guess for the moment I am kind of curious about this... it seems to me like it could possibly be the tps just a knatt-hair out of spec? Everything still seems normal as far as I can tell, it runs like a raped ape... I am just wondering if the TPS could have shaken loose in under 500 miles? My buddies went for over 2,000 miles b4 he had it reset last month... could the extra bumps from all my wheelies I like to do have shaken it loose, or am I just thinking of the steryotypical "Ah, its probably the TPS" ?
Any thoughts?
Seemed to run great the last little bit with no other symptoms so I plan to ride it as normal on Saturday and just keep an eye out for any other quirks.
Oh ya, sorry for the long post...... that in itself earns you guys a free
Thanks
