2009 800 IQ shift 144
I am looking for suggestions on some ways to make my sled more stable. My legs have a mind of thir own. they don't bend well and balance isnt good hence the name WEEBOLWOBBLE.
I'm basicly just a sitter can't jump from side to side.

If you don't jump from side to side then this is the sled for you. You need to put more time on this sled. Tipping it over is easy, getting it back up is the hard point. Learn that tipping point, and learn to use your throttle to hold you where you want to be. Ride the sled much like you would a sport bike (motorcycle) shifting weight from side to side. It is also very similar to snow skiing if you have ever done that. The Polaris IQ give GREAT rider feedback and the reason I jumped brands. When you make the turn use the throttle to power your way back up.

Really you just need seat/handle-bar time and you will learn the sled.
 
its not that i havent ridden used to own a 2000 800 rmk. But i was looking for suggestions on mods such as skis or other aditions that would help with the stability in powder.sidehilling kind of eats my lunch also. any help appreciated.
 
Like I said, this chassis is much different from the other chassis out there. It is a lot more tipsy, get some seat time on it and I think you will figure it out rather quickly, especially if you have rode before.
 
You may try moving the skis to the widest stance. This will help slightly to keep it flat and add stability. I would also consider a Skinz float plate. They still tip easy with that on, but it is much more predictable and easier to control. Possibly moving the front shock of the rear suspension to the lower position and letting out the limiter straps. That should be a start I hope.
These sleds were designed as more of a stand up machine so it might take some dialing in to get it to work like you want it too.
 
Might think about a holz 45" front end for it. That would make it much more stable when not on throttle. Yet when on throttle and the skis come up all sleds are only 15" wide unless you are on a doo doo, then it's still only 16".
 
try moving the bars back a little at a time...if too far forward the machine gets a mind of its own..also the wider frt end helps as would stiffening the frt shocks...and adding the 09 dragon swaybar.....
 
Wider front end

I am a Cat guy but the wide front end will fix it and you will love it. Get you a 43 or 45 Zbros with shocks you will not regret it.

I went to the holz racing website all i could find is a 41 am i in the wrong spot.
