All clutching, gearing, track, belt deflection, and rider the exact same and my 17 will hold tach great. My 18 pulls down to 7400 in long climb. Tried pulling a gram out of 18 and it still does it. Kinda bumbs me out!!
Anybody else experience this??
165 3”
Both sleds have the stiffer black secondary spring installed. Both have 2018 ramps, both have the lower engaging primary spring, both have BigJohn’s 16 gram pivot bolt installed, and both have the 18 gearing.
The 18 pulls down tach to 7400 after 10 second climb wide open. Tachs 8000 just fine if in and out of throttle boondocking.
Is a turd on straight pull tho.
Kinda wondering if the motor mounts on the 18 are softer and misaligning belt or the 18 just doesn’t make as much power??
