So far nothing but smiles from my setup. I’ve got 20hrs on this set up so far, and I’m loving every minute of it. Coming from my 300XC bike in the summer, and my M800 162 with 3” for winter, I had a pretty good idea what to expect, but this bike and snow kit have definitely exceeded my expectations. The ability to thread my way through tight trees on steep slopes has me giggling the whole time. I’m definitely finding that I need to ride more exclusively with just others on snowbikes, as sleds just can’t physically go the same places a snowbike can. As I get more and more comfortable, i’m taking it in places I didn’t even give a second look at on my sled.
The bike runs really strong, very happy with Power. I keep wondering if there’s a bit more with ECU tuning. So far I’m runnning the Hard hitting Loamy map, and it runs really good, with still just a hint of gas in my oil after 5 hour oil change intervals. . I also have a thermo-bob and PST engine blanket installed. Seems to be in the optimum 180 degree area when I do check coolant temp.
I also put in .62 springs with snowbike specific valving from ProAction. Very happy with that setup.
The Camso track continues to impress me. The places it goes is amazing. The Camso suspension leaves a little to be desired on the trail, but performs flawlessly in the powder. On the trail the ski is also a bit darty as other people have described, but I can live with it as off-trail performance is great. I’m Considering swapping to a Yeti ski setup in the future, but we’ll see.
Pretty well the #1 thing I need to do next is get a different seat, as the stock one is pretty hard on the arse after 2-3 days of riding.
Oh, also I did a CR intake, works great. Absolutely zero issues in deep snow. And I added a set of Cycra pro-bend hand guards. Has saved my fingers on all my bikes more times then I can count.
Still curious what other guys are running for #’s on their stock ECU’s, specifically for the 18 YZ, that works really well for them.
