made the trip up to allens yesterday just outside of sandpoint. Got the new 2010 barkbuster and timber sled suspensions installed. i must start off by saying allen has the shop of all shops! and his personal sled project this year is a real head turner.. the attn to detail on that thing is unreal! if its not powder coated or painted its chromed, about the only stock thing left on the sled is the console. With that said, allen is a great stand up no bull chit kind of guy, it was nice to finally meet him and get to chat while we did the installs. the new 2010 mtn tamer is the real deal! the ammount of adjustability is a little much at first but once allen explained it all and how it worked in reference to your sled when your actually riding it, it made a lot of sense and was pretty simple to follow. the big changes over last years suspension is the dual limiter straps over the single, and the duals have about 15 adjustment holes for the limiter strap position so you can go from mild to wild pretty easy. also the shock mounts got moved forward.. the old mount holes are still there in the rails if you prefer them that way. but the new mounts make the suspension about 30% stiffer which will really help keep skis on the ground. after we finished up with the installs allen took us over to the timbersled facility and i must say that it is hands down the cleanest shop i have been in, the next closest being his shop at his house. i was really impressed to see that they make everything in house, from the bending and cutting, to the machine work, to the welding..they even machine all the delrin bushings in house, you name it they do it. i cant wait to get this baby on the snow! here's a few pics
