Heres one dinking around in montana at a buddies ranch. Wished he was a better photographer. would have had some awesome shots that day.
i've got almost 600 miles on my xp. 50 miles on one bet that now is the spare. and the rest on the other belt.
no belt issues here. stock factory alignment. only changes were in the primary. spring only, (160-320) and cleaned up the arms (they were kinda sticky), 11 grams, clk 2-3 3k-9k and vented the crap out of it.
Last 100 miles ran a 13:1 head, and 13.4 grams. clk 4 up on the continental divide in montana/Idaho. Then I did something stupid and dislocated my shoulder..........
this sled is way tough. It barrel rolled and flipped 8-10 times according to the guy who saw me wreck. all it did was pop off the windshield, and the handle bar pad. put a slight bend in one of my knee vents..... thats it. this happend at 60 mph. the rest of the sled was completly unscathed. landed rightside up. started on the 3 pull. It was very impressive to say the least. didnt even throw the ski alignment off.
it sounds like a bit of a tall tale, I know. the snow wasnt even really soft. it was set up. Once I was standing again, i expected the front bumper to be touching the rear bumper... I was disapointed that i was busted up worse than my sled was. Would have rather totalled the sled and not have to deal with this shoulder crap. I find out today if i need surgery or not for my humerous bone(sp?).
point to this post, the 09' setup is very nice. The whole package. Improved factory port timing, the sweet solid engine mounts that skidoo put in this year. Even the factory clutching works good. all thats need is to ditch the spacer in the spring cup, and install a 160-320. sled will do 91mph, ( impressive being how its geared for 77) cruises at 65mph at about 6700-7k rpm, holds rpms nicely everywhere. has an insane low crawler gear coming back off the mountain. (my favorite part of it)
What more could ya want? Mad props to ski-doo for building a very nice sled this year.
What up hatchers. How are ya bud. I just realized that you've spent more money on 112 for your TM8 sled than i've spent on gas for both of my sleds and diesel for my truck this season Man i'm really sad that I probalby wont be able to come down and ride heber with you this season...
