Going to drop some $$$ getting 975

[donbrown]

I also have the htg 975 with the TMIII. What is the TMIV? Who still makes the 1140 kit?

Carl's makes / made the 1140 ?

Luba.

i remember Indydan talking about the TMI and the TMIV,

all i remember about the TMIV, was it would be like a 5yr warranty, and was slightly diff..but I cannot find any info on either now for the life of me!!..so i will have to take back what i said until i find more info on it..unless i am losing my mind

 

[BIGGDAWG]

If I would have known you had that kind of coin I would have charged you more for the CC Cover A 975 would be fun ! Good luck !

don't really got it but what the heck i am single no one to tell me no

 

[BIGGDAWG]

I've got a Carl's 975 and it rocks! I've heard good things about the HTG kit too. I haven't heard if Carl's will still make the 1140, they only made a handful. I know if there is enough interest they will still make the 975 kits for now.

i talked to carls and they said no. check out hot to go cause they arn't making anymore.

big diff. from stock? i hear good things about them rob says 185hp so that should do.

That TMIV you are talking about is for the 800's only I believe. The top dog for the 900's is the TMIII-which I have.

The 1140's were both made by Carl's and HTG the juggs were made by the Crank Shop who also made twin pipes. They had a hard time getting them to run right and thats why they are rare. They stopped making them. I have a set of crankshop twin pipes and lost a bunch of hp on the dyno (14).

Don't know yet. I lost a piston on my slp motor at the end of my riding season last year and I had a few issues with installing my 975. I have fired it and heat cycled it, but didn't get a chance to run it. I have an electrical issue to fix still. My motor will not shut off, I have to pull the plug wires. I am thinking I will be buying a stator and maybe a flywheel.

if you are planning on getting a new stator..i would look into get your old one rebuilt...there is a few places that rebuild them, and they will run stronger, and last alot longer then a new one...and usually cheaper then getting a new one..

i have some info from a place in Canada...RM Stator, i sent them a HUGE email about it with questions..and they emailed me and said for me to call them and talk about it..

its on my list to do..along with everything else i keep putting off...but i want to rebuild mine this fall too


i will let you know, and post about it when i get around to doing it..hopefully BY the end of next week i will do it...

that is what i am looking for. don't want the guys in my group to beable to keep up with me

 

[nmmiles]

Anybody have a link to EBB's 975? Just to clear up the confusion I talked to carls a while back while we were discussing my 975 and they said they will no longer make the 975 or the 1140. Maybe if you do some heavy convincing you can squeeze one out of em though.

Sean- No you don't need an 1140! If you had that how am I every going to beat you! All this one uping each other is taking a tole on my wallet! Which reminds me of my last one-up.....HAYDAYS!!! lol

Bigdog,

Can't wait for you to get this thing going and on the snow! Do you think you will have it done by time snow falls?
What exhaust are you going to be running with this? What gauges are you planing on using?

x2 about getting your stator rebuilt v.s. getting it replaced. I think you would be happier if they just rewound it.

[guidoxpress]

well looks like i am gonna have to do something here to keep up with you guys..

maybe...

1140, TMIII crank, turbo and my NOS...that should do it...well maybe some bar mirrors to see where you guys are at!!

LOL...i wish..maybe i will start the build on the mirrors at least!

rob said 1695 plus shipping for his kit. you have to send him your upper case,cylinders,head and exhaust valves. and ecu. 3-5 week turn around.

he suggested using a boondocker box also because he has changed the porting since he had polaris flash his ecu's and he can't get them to change it very easy.

he has the boondocker numbers though. as far as the rest i am looking at around 1500 for the new crank/clutch kit and new cases with new oil/water pump drive gear and bearings

damn, 1695 for 975 kit...SEAN!
would you be mad at me, LOL
heres me heres you
now i am scheming again

 

[sleddude]

Well after much thought and number crunching i decided to replace the crank on my 05 and go with the htg 975 kit while i am at it

now i can't wait for the parts to get here and get her build. thanks to all for your input.

BD, I can't wait to hear how this kit works for you. Please make a video. This might be something I'm going to do next summer, if they still make the kit. I like how you can get 185hp on pump gas, I really don't want to mess around with mixing race gas. Anyways I hope the rebuild goes smooth for ya.

Later

thanks. i will take some pics to document the engine removal and assembly so others can see what it takes.

Is the HTG a pump gas set-up? Before I turboed my 900 I ran a Carls 975 that was a 50/50 mix. You wont be disappointed they pull like a dump truck.
