What Does Your Rev Summit Weigh

Hello Everyone,

I am curious and think this would be a good learning thread, So lets all list what are sled weighs if you have weighed it, Or if you know what your sled weighs or even if you don`t exactly know what do you estimate what it could or does weigh now considering what you have done to it and parts you have added, so lets list all the parts you have on it to lighten it up and the estimated or known savings of your mods being homemade or parts added and even parts taken off we all know there are things we can take off that gives us weight savings.

Like my sled is an 04 Summit X 800HO it had a 144 but extended it to a 159 this we know added weight but that don`t count.

So for this Mountain S,led thread cause we all know the benefit of the longer track so to me this thread of for Sleds that are 800cc or bigger and that have 151 or bigger tracks.

You could please also add pics of you Bad *** sled with your info or advice. which to me is what they all are!!
so we can see and all get ideas to what to do and what to add or remove from our sled to make them as light as we can possibly get them.

Who has the Lightest one?? that has positively honestly weighed it , if you haven`t weighed it what do you honestly estimate what it should be and how did you get it down that light???

I am excited to learn and read all the listings and what to do to get my sled lighter, I know this can in places be expensive. and there are also inexpensive or free
mods and inexpensive ones they are all welcome and would be cool if listed here.

My sled,I extended it to a 159 Series 4 track, flipped the front shocks over and installed 6.9 pilot skis that have been swapped from side to side. right after I purchased it. Then I started from ther trying to slowly remove weight, So bye bye swaybar and the outer plastic clutch cover guards is gone, all foam removed, all wheels in rear skid, except obviously the rear axle and 3 wheels, Lol. It also has a aluminum lower gear in the chaincase that was there when I bought it , the the gear is lighter than the steel stock on but seems to be wearing prematurely so for reliability reasone I will probably replace it with a steel gear. Not sure what the saving of all these mods were cause I haven`t weight the wheels, brackets and parts I took off yet. but will post when I do that soon.

I have lightened the track by cutting out every 3rd window in the Polaris Series 4 track to except the stock extrovert skidoo drivers and I will be lightening it more when I port it and will post that saving when that is done. acording to tracks usa this is one of the lightest tracks in this length, being 52lbs not ported or the 3rd windows cut out. I have installed RSI 10inch risers which I beleive weigh the same as the 7inch riser, I have installed a Dyno Port can, not the small Barker but the oval chamber quieter one, which weighed in at 7.5lbs lighter light weight hood and possible side panels or Boss seat is next on my list, What is your list??

I have also removed the original tunnel rack and taillight assembly and stock rear bumper. and hitch that was on the sled when I bought it and built my own tunnel extension, will be redoing it its thicker aluminum than I like and want to make it lighter.

Also removed the Yellow plastic control arm protectors that hold an trap snow in the front suspension.

Thanks, Wildcard

Next on that list should be a set of ice scratchers, unless you want to "shave" some weight off of your hyfax. You can loose one more idler (and more weight) with the rear axle parts used in the new Polaris (two inner wheel) set-up. The parts are $65.00 retail but for 04/05 rev you need to change the wheel bearings or just run the current (2) polaris wheels. flip your axle adjusters to the inside of the rail and it all bolts right up.:cheer2:

Thanks for the reply, what is your sled ??you gave me advice on mine lets see yours?? Thats the point of this thread.

scratchers are going to be installed but I usually ride where there is enough snow I have never worn out a set of hyfaxs but I do keep an eye on them.

thanks, Wildcard

Danzick,

Cool lookin sled and alot of mods I would like to see the pics of it with all completed mods you mentioned, If you like yellow, I have a set of skis the same you have in yellow I changed my sled to 6.9 Pilot skis

I also have a Skidoo yellow skidplate also, I am lookin to trade someone for a black one.

I eventually want my sled all black with just the hood and dash blue like yours are

I like the idea of the mesh in place of the hood screens, and would like to see some pics of the parts you took off in the front foot area, not sure what parts
your talking about,

I would like a set of snoweliminators but might do my own running board porting and design.

Thanks for the reply and pics lets keep the replies and pics comin

Awesome sled Reeb

Love the all black look that is what I`m talking about if everyone listed the
mods and weight like you did in your reply would be nice to see all Rev owners on here do the same on this theard. Nice Job. breakin it down

Mine Will look pretty close to the same as yours but like mentioned before I
want the Blue Hood and Dash like the 06 or you can say I`m going to Clone mine, Lol

is it an 06 or 07 lookin at the seat, and if not do you know what that style seat weighs?? I goin to change to my 04 X model seat to your style seat or a
Boss but your style seat is less expence.

Thanks,Wildcard

Danzick,

Ya ok thats what I thought you were talking about will have to do the same, I read on Ttabs thread on Dootalk about he adjusts that piece for our boots to clear for instance the loop piece you removed that bolted on the back side he would take his boot and put it sideways in the footwell and then ajust that piece up till the boot had plenty of room to go from straight up to tilting to the side, His boot hung up there once after fallin off and drug him for a while and almost hurt his ankle very good Idea I thought so removing it would probably be better.

going ridin this morning out of Boville ID towards Elk River Id. for a short ride

Thanks, Wildcard
