So far i have gone on two rides after doing the geo mod, and porting my 153" powerclaw track. I have to say they are both incredible modifications.
first off, GEO MOD- before doing this my rear float was 145 psi, which made the trail almost impossible to ride and the trenching could be much less. so with my buddies 2010 m8 as our comparison i started w/ 105 psi after the geo mod- we both weigh 200 lbs and our sag was exactly the same and the sleds were the same height pre and post sag. So absolutly nothing changed except i got to ride w/ 40 psi less. after riding with this i came back to the shop and lowered it to 95 psi, and the zero pro i have the spring nuts exactly half way up and down on the threads. No gas or bags and just myself 197 lbs had the best amount of sag. let me just say the trail was so nice today and it was beat to sh%$. switched w/ my buddy for a mile and he was blown away. then in the powder climbing my track was flat on the snow and transfered weight 100% better, i outclimbed him going higher and w/ about 5 mph more speed. (could of been cause i ported the track).
Huge thank you to GEO for this idea.
Track porting- only used a 1" hole and only drilled two holes side by side. after the day compared to my friends 10'm8 we figured i had 10lbs less of snow and ice throughout my skid. visually it was absolutly different w/ the amount of snow left behind. when lifting the track on my stand and just letting the track do its own thing, compared to my buddy my track would spin fast enough it was scary to stop it w/ your hand. we both have 2 1/2" of room on track tension and the same belt deflection. my buddies track will barely make it around one full time and will start and stop somewhat. mine gets started and then continues at about 7 mph. it moves fast.
anyway so far these two mods are great and just wanted to pass this info along to anybody else. i got pics of everything if anyone wants to see.
thanks
