Wicked SKI DOO throttle pull?

Does anybody Know of a solution for the 05 ski doo 800 rack style carbs, to make it less abusive on the poor little thumb.......Can you buy a lighter spring? can you cut a coil out of the existing one?
any tried and true ideas?
Thanks
 
Cable?

It might be time for a new cable, the plastic liner can wear through allowing friction from the cable and housing rubbing together. You might check your cable routing also.

I have had a number of REV's and never had a stiff flipper.

Hope this helps
 
Yeh I told my friend that,
He said the routing is good, and the cable is new.
I guess I will just have to tell him he cant be a puss all the time!!
 
just tellem to tuff it out for one season. next season he wont have a little thumb he will have a big ole mans thumb =)

j/k :D
 
On the XP carbs you can move the return spring on the carbs from the stock position to the next notch and lessen the throttle pull. I believe you can do the same thing with the REV carbs. Take a look at the carbs and you will see a second catch that the spring clips to. Another option is to get an aftermarket throttle assembly (Powermad) and go to a Polaris flipper. The Poo flipper is longer and easier to pull.
