What Mods can you do and not void the factory warranty.

[shelbwyo]

I hope that the dealers aren't trying to push modifications out of the industry. Mods are a huge segment in the sled industry. If one brand were to stop awarding warranty claims because of mods i think they will drop their sales drastically.

Don't think it's either. They have the lowest net investment in by far the most expensive components on the sled - the motor and electronics. Their SDI approach has been around for 15 years, with only tweaks and twerks. Most of their sleds look like they were wired by a shop class, and designed in a tavern, at some point in their lifecycle. Zero new 4S tech brought to market in sleds. The rest of the sled (RMK) is a nice mix of proven parts and borrowed ideas around a very well balanced chassis, with some low cost innovation thrown in. They make it work in the deep with chassis and clutching. The biggest pure innovation from poo in the last 10 years has been the Rush rear and front clip. And they have enough volume to make it work.

LOL.

A little denial here? lol? Let's see. Build something no one else could then keep on pushing with some other things no one had the balls to try first. Watch the rest scramble to regain lost customers further pushing sled innovation.

I for one am very happy Poo piled up the proven, old and borrowed parts into a basket and just luckily out came the Pro. lol.

Best put together pile of old parts I ever bought. Keep doin' what your doin' Poo.

The original question was "...why are they cheaper?..."

The highest product costs for a sled OEM are simply motor and electronics. Poo spends less $$$, from R&D through end of life production, for motors and electronics. That's not what they do well.

Does anybody really think poo is a leader in motors or electronics? Have they ever been a leader here? Performance, innovation, durability, reliability? That would be denial.

What about the simple things like, Can or intake?

and if you put a fuel controller can they tell if you take it off.

 

[mountainhorse]

Can, intake, fuel controller, pipe, reeds, exhaust valve springs, cylinder head, turbo, etc etc... all adequate reasons to deny warranty coverage on the sled.

Exhaust springs?
Interesting.
Suppose it could point too having a pipe on it.
Like the velcro on the oil tank.

Believe MH was meaning different color/rate VES valve springs.

 

[mountainhorse]

Yep... My bad for not being clear... EV springs like Reg said.
