My sled has almost 10000 klm on it, seems to be getting a bit tired. What can i do to regain performance? its a 600 twin

rings, maybe pistons, good clutch anb carb clean, change both clutch springs.

^^X2.....

rings are the big item,but mic out your pistons for under spec wear...use
only OEM parts....she'll run like new when done..

what kind of compression should i be getting. from a 600 twin

 

[daman]

My XTC has 130 on bolth,,but anything 120ish is good,and as long as there
within 10% of each other..

what kind of speed are you guys seeing from your stock 600 twins ?

what kind of speed are you guys seeing from your stock 600 twins ?

90-95mph here, haven't ever hit 100, but then I do have a 1.25" track, and never really tried dialing it in for speed.

 

[MICHAELSF150]

The only time i can hit 95-100 mph is on bare ice or really hard pack. It seems a bit of snow slows my sled down alot, only hit about 75-80 mph. Is this normal? The only mods i have are reed spacers, 96 studs, and 1" lug track.

I can see a 100 on a long pull with the dream meter, but i have the stock
.75 track on it,skid/clutch(7,800) dialed in good,hooks good on hard pack,
she rips for a small cc twin..i love the sled!!!!!!

 

[MICHAELSF150]

what do you have done to the skid to make the sled perform better

 

[daman]

Just dialed it in for my weight and the best transfer i can get,pined outa the hole on good hard pack snow the ski's only carry about a 2-3" off the ground.
