I have seen a ton of these sled UNDER $7000 Cdn. What is wrong with them? Are they too heavy? Reliability issues? Too powerful
?
?
So what was the deal with th Summit 1000?
- Thread starter Summitstef
- Start date
most likely due to the disappointment in what they expcte and what they felt.
to bad really but it was a simple fix for the mtn crowd , looking back from what we know now about the poor performance .and what caused it and what the fixis .
running properly there impressive . the crank will give issues eventually if it was run a lot in the deep stuff .
the issue wasnt present in a easern Mach orone that saw tightsnow .
over all block temp ws the issue , wsnt even with out a tstat . runs to much i the cold limp mode , need a t stat badly .
got axed pre production due to dyno testing showing 6 or 7more ponies i the coolant temp was lower .fine , but not fine in the deep snow , cooling system was way over efficent for an open flow system oporating in deep snow conditions .
put a t stat in one and even out the temp to oporate over 82 degrees f and you have a very good power plant .
other than that its heavy if you weight under 250 lbs .
if your 6ft 8 and 300lbs plus , its a match made in sled heaven LOL's

My brother just got a real clean 06 for 5000 Cdn.He's a big boy at 260. I think he's going to like it.
