So, the weekend after I watched a buddy submarine his M7 I shot the same stretch on my XP.
It was not the best to say the least, I came into the water slow, maybe 3-4 mph, when I was sure I wouldnt splash water up on the hood i ran it up to full power. My speed came up immediately and it was like glass until I started to feel a surging and the revs fall off. Now I have a 100 more feet and I am slowing down like hell. I got all the way back on the skid to keep the front light but it wasnt helping. I was practically kicking like a skate board by the time my skis got to the other side. Every buddy was looking around thinking... that lucky bastard!!
So, could removing the sway bar have let enough water in to wet the clutches? My wife still crossed after I did on a non ported 06 x and she hit the throttle hard picking up speed to prolly 70 by the other side.
Whats the deal??
Also, we have had wet snow in Central oregon lately and even clickered up to 4 I am still only hitting about 7800 rpm. Should I keep clickering up to get 81-8400?
Thanks,
Cheyne
