Are we going to screw up depenability?

high time · Mar 28, 2011

I am glad I can buy a turbo 4 stroke mountain sled with a warranty. Maybe a little extra boost, that's easy, but with all the talk of huge mods. is this going to give Cat a black eye, with a lot of broken sleds?

I guess it's the nature of the beast. We got a problem.........

Suzuki builds the Turbo 1100 motor to produce 225 hp - that is its intended design specification. Arctic Cat de rates the motor by 20% for warranty purposes.

After 225, some internals need to be upgraded for reliability.

As a snowmobiling community we need to stop using mods and warranty in the same sentence.

If you do not think cat reads this your nuts.

I can tell you that a couple of years ago I warrantied a DD for a customer and he got on hear and told every one that I did it with a turbo on his sled and with in a month I had a warranty inspector in my shop.

Thanks Buddy.:loco:

Never understood that phrase,,,,, mod/waranty

I guess I will take a counter position....If the mod does not cause the problem that is beig Warrantied, then I personally dont think it should be an issue...

case in point...The boost of my sled had NO impact on the oil tank that got a crack in it because the sled is built in such a manner, sidehilling places pressure on the tank, and as such causes a crack...

Maybe I am wrong....However, I have seen dealers try and void warranties for some of the silliest things..."You have modified the boards (I installed BetterBoards), and as such the warranty is voided...

I think they are talking about engine,drive train warranty

Modding a new 1100T can't be any worse that the mods guys have been doing to the 2 strokes for years

Take it from someone with a modded 4 stroke, the suzuki will be just fine. It has been beaten hard on trail sled for a few years now.
