Can any of you 9R owners elaborate on the cooling system? How do they perform on trail?

Well Rusty if you went up to Baker maybe you would know. There is no snow down low and the silly berm fooled us into thinking there was 1" to ride on.

Keep an eye on your stock scratchers. As they wear a bit they start to bend some and the tip begins to run closer to the track. Running temps will go up. Stop and give them a good flex outward so the tip of the scratcher is 3 or 4 inches out to the side of the track when moving. That will drop your temps substantially.

Not to turn this into another scratcher thread but my dealer sells WPS scratchers that are identical to oem replacements just without mounting hardware. Out the door price was $25. At that price, it's just another consumable. Quit worrying about them and replace them when you bend or run hot

I’m about 140 in normal trail conditions with the 155 slash. The 146” slash stays around 100 in the same conditions with the longer cooler.

Speaking on how to turn my 155 Matryx Slash 9R Pro into an awesome trail machine, does anyone know where I can get a set of Boggers for my Lamborghini? ?

Why do people buy a sled that is the farthest thing for the trails and then try to make it into a trail sled???

Because a mountain sled makes a better trail sled than a trail sled makes a mountain sled.. Some of us don't want to have 2-3 sleds for every little thing your going at. Pick your highest priority and deal with the consequences... Works for me anyways. I can't wait to see your reaction when I put a two up seat on my 9R next year. haha

Grass drag season is just around the corner... testing!

This is much more plausible and realistic than the excuse Chilly provided.

Ice storm scratchers are worth 10-20° on the trail

The OP was asking because SKS 146 only came in a Patriot 650 for 2023. So the next logical step to get something close to what he had, is an 850/9R RMK Khaos Slash 146.
