Anybody else getting their sleds ready for this winter?

I'm installing all new adjustable shocks, new torsion springs, overhauling the clutches, new fuel filter and lubing everything up. I'm also considering a PC V. Cheaper to do a little upgrading and maintenance then replacing the sled this season.

I had the stock pipe ceramic coated and some clutch work. I plan to re-work the stock handlebar set up and work on a new rear skid set up.

2011 season

I installed the Holz Alpha-X rear skid in my sled & Holz spindles, and also polished it up using Dunatics polishing kit, now it looks REAL NICE. Clutching wise, The only thing left to order are the 68 gram MTX weights, and order Carls Fox shock valving.

It's been a while seen I've been here. All I have done is removed my front bumber. Hoping to clean the clutches on the rest of the sleds real soon. How has everybody been this summer?

Sounds good, I always try to support our locals. Do you have a good map for my 07 700 with a SLP pipe and can?

Thank you, we try to support our riders as well. I need to get a few maps on Monday, I will get a separate map for your setup also. I have been doing the Power Addiction cylinder heads on the 700's a lot as well and they work very good at our elevation, if you are looking for a little more power, consider that as well.

I Pm'ed you with some prices.

I got that iq ready to go. I ended up putting a non ves 700 in it because when I tore into my 800 motor it had some scores so im sending it off to get re-nikasiled. I just need some air pods. I was wondering if you can order some for me? and maybe a few other things. im going to go through the sled tomorrow and get a list of the things i need and want haha. I wont be able to pick the stuff up until im back from my hitch though.
