2001 sxr 600

Hey, I just bought a 2001 sxr 600 triple, it has a 1.25" track no-studs. I put a set of white c&a pro skis on it and looking to do some more mods. What's the biggest track, risers, top speed, do that have good acceleration?

i dont believe you can go higher than a 1.25 inch track without running into issues with the heat exchanger. As far as risers it seems to be the general consensus that 3inches is the highest you can go without modifying your brake line, throttle, oil etc. as far as top speed I think they are supposed to hit a bit into the triple digits. For acceleration.... CLUTCHING and PROPER suspension setup can not be stressed enough. If you just bought it start by cleaning the carbs, and checking everything over as best you can (compression check, etc.) I would start with a fresh set of plugs (also gives you an opportunity to read the previous owners jetting), and check all the other levels and if you are trigger happy replace your coolant and chaincase oil with new stuff. Look into the basic power mods... thinner head gasket, notched reed valves and bored out can etc.... or you can create a devil and triple pipe it. good luck with the sled!

I have gotten my 2001 sxr 600 up to about 155 km's an hour on hard pack,little snow,otherwise it will average in the middle 140 range .

also if you remove your front exchanger protectors,,you can run 1.5 to 1.75 inch tracks.
