I have a 22' 850 n/a 155" 2.75 with Burandt clutch kit, GGB, and patrick customs clutch balance/lightening. Snow willing, I'll be riding Rabbit Ears (9k-11k). I have both #40-154 57g-67g & #40-151 65g-72g slp weights. The manual states 10-66 weights for 9-11k ft.

Which weight set would you recommend anticipating the fine tune adjustment direction I'll need to do i.e more or less?

We are staying at Rabbit Ears Adventure Cabins. Any of you stay here?

Thanks

Can’t help on clutching. Cool location on cabins but you still have to trailer your sleds up to the pass since it’s surrounded by private property. But it’s nice to only have a 10 min drive.

Yep, not a big deal for us since so close. Steamboat and Kremmling are 25 miles and if a storm rolls in, might not be possible to get to the pass.

Agree. I’ve always enjoyed camping the muddy creek lot too if you’ve got a good camper. It’s a party up there

Thanks. Chris has me set at 67g, maxed out on the 57-67g weights. It doesn’t leave me flexibility if I need to add weight. Guess I’ll just roll with that and change out the weights if need be

That’ll work great. You could even put in 66 like factory suggestion. It sucks to have too much clutch weight but too light of weight won’t ruin your day like heavy weights will. Edible. Mmmmm

67g working well! Snow has been amazing up at Rabbit Ears. Today we finally got a bluebird day.
