I just bought a 2001 SRX700 with about 6000 miles on it for $2,000. It has tempa-flow and i think it has some clutch work done. ( the helix doesnt look stock). The track is studded, but not sure how many it goes right down the middle. Maybe just 96?
Well anways, i just got back from minoqua wisconsin and my first impression was "Damn this thing is quick" It was difficult to start in the morning because it was gettin down to -25 at night and was still around there in the morning.
After driving it around and getting used to it because it was my first sled (i'm 15 and weigh around 130 lbs.) I decided to open it up on the lake, i got it up to 120 mph on the speedo and got there pretty damn fast. I wanted to race a few people but they must have been on the lakes while I was warmin up.
I like the feeling of going fast, so i was was wondering on some things i can buy to make it faster such as porting, powervalves,clutch set-ups, shaving the heads etc...
As for the suspension.... the first day it seemed very nice, and same with the second. On monday though, but the trails were poorly groomed and the moguls were terrible and my back was starting to hurt then, I'm ganna be looking into some Ohlins and see if they are worth it? Anyone have some feedback? And what about M-10/M-12? or Expert-X? And will they slow me down?
The more opinions the better!
