Saturday was my first trip out this season and for interest sake here is the pluses and minuses of the modes I made this fall to my 08 XP:
SLP head ... slight plus but was hoping for more power.
semi hard plastic mountain bar .... yes this was a good upgrade.
2 wheel kit ... Sorry Smitty nice look but I did not feel much difference.
Spindle Dawgs ....
this is what we are calling them, this was a nice surprize. They are add-ons that I made to offset the tie rods from the spindles 2 cm to reduce steering effort by 20%. I am going to let others try my sled and get feedback to see if others appreciate the lighter feel with the comprimise of reducing turning radius by 20%.
These are the lightest sleds on the market an I believe they should feel like it and it still turns as tight as any other brand.
