1.gasket Scraper

2. butane torch

Updating to the piveting riser was by far the best mod I ever did to my 700.
By the way Cntrvl sledder I don't think your gonna like the painted arms and tunnel, snow is very much like sandpaper and it won't look that nice for very long IMHO. The boss seat was a good upgrade also but not as nice as the risers. As you can see I need better boards or something next. Also when I get in some really deep powder it starts to bog down then comes out of it when I hit some ones track any ideas there?

Any idea what those WKRP boards will sell for? I am in the middle of a tunnel project and fully intend to install or make something like these!

The others will clear the snow fine _ I am sure, but I ***_u_me that these tie in on the side of the tunnel for support as well?


Also - I don't understand "dropping the tunnel 1"."
What does that mean?

You dropped the rear suspension an inch maybe?

Yes they make the tunnel 10 times stiffer. I bought new brackets that dropped the tunnel bolt one inch down You can go more but I just needed more space so i would stop hitting the tunnel when I hit big bumps. Not sure about price but i will find out!

Ahh I did it last year as well. One side I did two layers of clear coat and I lost no paint on the other side I did one and had a tiny bit come off. So this year I took them off Blasted them down too the metal and powder coated them and added three coats of clear coat! I am also painting my 800's yellow. I am not doing the tunnel I polished it instead

ZX seats are easy enough to modify. I took my stock seat, shortened it by removing the storage area, and narrowed the foam a bit for my knees.
You could always add foam on top for a rise if you wished.

Cheapest mod so far

You could change your gearing. I went from my stock 19/43 (high mark) to a 17/48. You may think thats a little too low but I like it, gets your track turning in a hurry. Rips from 0 to 50! Great for deep powder, slow speed torque is great and i can crawl at 5mph through the trees without slipping my belt. It will still pull 78mph fully shifted out on the road. I dont miss stock gearing at all. Im sure my belt temps are lower, it runs higher on the primary so more grip, less slip. Anyway my two cents

In a Zx?

You guys looking for something like the WRP BetterBoards , RSI has cutouts to rivet to your tunnel and then cut the hole out in the tunnel, they come in sections so you can add as many as you want, I put a couple in my boys Racer-X tunnel on each side up in front where the snow builds up, should probably add a couple more on each side. Look on RSI website for info, would fit on any tunnel.

Best ZX Mod

Hope this link works. This guy has taken a rev seat and mounted it on a zx chassis. Looks pretty good and might be easier than the other method in this thread. I haven't tried it myself, though. It looked like it sets you up a couple of inches or better. The taller the seat the easier it is to transfer from sitting to standing in mountain riding. Just thought I would share. Good-luck!
