So my sled will die everytime I do this?I get that you want to go cheap but they are not equal for sure. The Phantom Teth-Air also has the roll-over shutdown feature and is automatic. No hooking up and disconnecting all the time. This can be especially important if others may ride your sled like kids that may forget. It can also be much faster than a cord too. If you stand at the side of your sled and start it and the throttle is stuck full on, it can race away and won't even start slowing until it gets at least 3 feet away, when the cord unplugs. Try that in a trailer or on a sled deck! The Phantom has no time delay on start up and will shut down as soon as the track spins if your hand is not on the throttle side grip. If you go for a cord, use it 100% of the time, even when loading/unloading.

Well, very good question. You will have your hands off the bar for less than 1 second with that stunt so I suggest you set up your time delay for 1.5 seconds when you ride. I usually ride with 0.5 seconds for both the laser and roll-over sensors.
what happens if your throttle hand slips while riding, it kills the engine?
Or if you remove your hand from the thottle a second for a branch or something?
My polaris tether have been frozen half of the time
On a ride last year we have one guy start his sled near us talking and then hit a sled and a crashed into a tree not far. He stared his 850 and the throttle was stuck as soon as it fired up the sled when off flying but he stayed on it with his tether good thing no one was directly in from of him!

I want to “go Cheap”!
Not the best way to lure customers....lol!
Understand everyone doesn’t have endless cash flow.
Enjoy your profits.....
I actually really liked the Cat magnetic tethers, paired with the adapter cord that is for sale on here. But... for simplicity and overall cost - we have gone back to the Polaris rubber cap tethers. Easy to get, cheap and when you know their limits and downsides, they work well.
I ran one last year. Never had a single issue with it. Was the most reliable tether to date for me.What are their limits and downsides? Was thinking of adding a tether this year.
I had a new Arctic Cat Magnetic Teather fail last year, AC isn’t willing to replace it so I’ll be switching back to OG Polaris Rubber Cap

Link? I can’t see to find it on there websiteFor anyone looking for tether options yet, tki has a kit that uses the cat magnetic tether and a mounting plate that locates it right at the top of steering post under the bar clamps. It comes with the plate, tether, and wiring so it is plug and play. I just bought it at haydays ($95) there for my new khaos.
