Picked up a '99 srx last fall. I rode it as is. Now that the seasons over, I want to tear into it abit. I've read many threads here & have some ideas. Just want to get some input on a few things.
Seems like a common mod is to swap the srx skid for a viper. What are you gaining? What is the travel on a viper skid. Is it a bolt in job or will any fab be involved?
Also on clutching. I've read some threads and it seems there is alot to gain over the stock cluthing. Hearing all the different combos, it seems endless. I was on the MCB site & they have a Q & A deal where they match set-ups to your sled/needs/wants. Is that a reasonable way to go??? Reputable???
Basically looking for a very strong launch & strong mid range. Would sacrifice top end to be better down low/mid.
For tracks, seems 1 1/4" Predator has high praise. Is there an advantage to a fully clipped track? What about track pitch? Finally, what is the advantage to not studding a track?
Oh yeah, the seat is worn alot around the top/rear. What other seats will fit. Are they all that wide??? This seat seams huge compared to my old wildcat.
Alot of questions I know. Just want to be ready for next season & not try to do all of this last minute.
Thanks in advance for any info.
