Kalle Johansson 1100 Turbo

-- Handguards -- You mean for like if you brush up against some branches while boondocking and the branches pin the throttle wide open

--Have a buddy who reversed his throttle on a original Skidoo Summit back in '94 or whenever. We were watching sleds at the end of the dragstrip at Lake Grandby. He let his girlfriend drive the sled with him on the back going back to the truck. She hit the throttle to get moving, he was holding onto her, she was holding onto the throttle wfo, they shot across the dragstrip and broadsided a trailgroomer. He flew over the top of her and the trailgroomer like superman and she got her chest bruised up by the handlerbars. He then got up, threw his helmet on the snow and had a few words to say. He rotated the throttle back.

--Not saying it is bad to rotate the throttle, just know what is going on if you do it

I don't set my sled up so it will work for panicked girls. been thinking about finger throttle for a while, gonna try it now. Only thing I want to make sure of it having my hand guards protect it from branches and snow. If adjusted right it will be past 9 o'clock which should help a lot to start.

Yeah, one thing to mention... I run standing up... not sitting, so the throttle points more down than forward really. Just adjust it so it feels right...

Looks like his Turbo has vertical Post???

Highly doubt that, his M is modified to run horizontal... can't imagine he'd mod this one to do the exact opposite.

Looks like normal steering to me, you can just see the box of the riser covered in snow.

1'' forward mod thats it, and the trigger is a rsi block setup.its a workout but once u build up the strength your all good.i'll be sticking to the thumb setup.

Horisontal steering post on my M8 Turbo.

It is horisontal like on the snocross sleds.. I like it that way so i made my m8 that way. I can be about 15 cm more forward over my skis to have more control in the air.

point and shoot

Kalle must not have gotten the virtual memo.....

Doesn't he know the 1100T is only a "point and shot" sled and can't be ride in the trees!!!! How dare he.

YA man,,, what is all the negative about the 1100 not being able to boon dock???
Waist deep snow crawling around trees,, looks like it will do the job.... Sure you might have to eat your wheaties but who cares...
