Looking at getting a proclimb 800 153. My price range puts me in the 12-15 model year. Don’t know anything about cat as I’ve always been polaris. My research tells me cat clutches get hot and the skis are to skinny. I’m not to concerned with that right now or anything aftermarket mod. My main concerns are what to look for when buying/finding a good used sub 2,000 mile quality m8000. Like;
Where’s compression suppose to be? (flat land)
Any recall or service bulletins type stuff?
Good measuring locations for checking chassis straightness?
Signs of how the sled was taken care of?
How to shake down test ride to surface potential issues?
(Long high r’s pull, lots of midrange)
Things like that. Also I’m sure a 15 is better then a 12 but how much do they differ? I’m desperate for a good reliable sled. The poo 800 has just about wrecked sledń for me. I’ve always heard the zuk 800 is about as reliable as a 2 stroke can be.
When they do have problems what are early warning signs?
What needs to be done to keep them reliable?
Any comments or advice would be appreciated!
