Put your Pro Climb on a Diet! New Product!

Sled Solutions, Can you request they put a drain bolt in the chain case cover? There's one in the BDX cover I used to have on my sled and it made chain case oil changes much less of a mess. I have a belt drive now, but others might appreciate it.

I will certainly pass it on.

I confirmed it does have a drain and the plug has a magnet on it.
 
Vid says you can get a led headlight package for it sold separately.

Interesting they say it works for both Rasmussen and the normal boards. I wonder if they are actually sucking in the Plastics on the bottom for each board. Might make it work for what we have for the bm boards. You still need a certain width in front of the clutch though so width there will never change too much. Cost is just a tough pill to swollow. I want to know weight savings more than anything.

Info is coming soon! They weighted their sled with all their goodies on it and this it what they found.

"We weighed this machine fully built with all of our products which includes the new Camso Conquer 280 track and we are at 480 with all fluids and 7.5 gallons of gas in it. If you subtract the fuel, we are at 435 lbs. 435 for a fully build naturally aspirated Proclimb is a pretty sweet number."
 
What year sled was it and what track length? 7.5 gallons of fuel is kind of an arbitrary number. Why wouldn't you just weigh it empty or full of fuel?
 
So 455lbs subtracting the fuel and stock track roughly.
This is with a can, headlight delete, panels, boards, oil resi, seat, and front end.
The numbers seem off....can someone help me out here? Seems like 20lbs less than stock isn't right for all of that. Or is the Proclimb more than 475lbs dry?

EDIT: I confused myself there. 435 was without fuel. So the 480lbs should see an extra 10lbs to be full of fuel. Not the 435 number. So add 10lbs for the track and we are at 445lbs. Still, I have a hard time coming to terms with 30lbs. I'm almost positive that number was closer to 40-45lbs when we did our headlight delete, Mtn fit hood, beltdrive, boards, and jaws can. But I have no way of backing up those numbers, just by memory. Can someone explain why I'm not seeing the value here?

A 2016 162 sno pro was weighed on here at 480 out of the crate so 475 should be right for a 153 track. Without the 10lb loss with the 280 track they would be at 445. 475-445=30lb net loss with all the Skinz parts. I would guess things like their boards, front end kit, and ARC system (if it's on there) would add some weight back to the sled so it doesn't tell us yet what the body kit alone loses. Skinz doesn't make a belt drive either so that loss isn't there. Of course this is all assuming they are sticking to their catalog of parts as said.

I have yet to weigh any aftermarket boards that didn't gain weight to the sled. If you weigh all the stuff you cut off and weigh the boards and all rivets to attach them it's roughly a 5lb gain to put boards on. I haven't done skinz boards, but I highly doubt they weigh any less than the OEM cat flimsy boards.

Yes, stronger boards equal more weight but have you ever weighed your sled with the boards packed with snow and ice. Airframes save weight where it matters, out on the snow.
 
With all cats powder coating the boards rarely ever are packed with snow. The only place is the toe holds up front, which will still get packed no matter what boards you have on. This topic wasn't started talking about a sled packed with snow anyway, it's about how much weight your products lose on a sled. You have yet to give us a list of what those products are that got that sled to the weight advertised. Not bashing any of your products, just want a list of what was done to get the sled to 435lbs as advertised.

I was simply responding to your comment about Airframes adding weight to the sled. None of the products are ours, we are only a dealer for Skinz products. We have no control over when they give us the number you are waiting for. As soon as I have details I'll share the info.
