  1. That is with the pipe. Bullseyes Small outlet Riot Pipe (something new they are working on this fall) Flash (to match the pipe) More to follow next week...... They were playing with various heads today. Stock, modified stock, interchangeable domes, etc..........
  2. Still mid-high 40 degree temps....but at least it wasn't pouring out today....... A few more ponies on this one....... and a nice wide band....... Wish it was in the 30s today...........
  3. Crappy day for some stock testing on Tuesday .......... high 40s, pouring rain, crap air quality........ but with all things being equal, seeing about the same as we had been seeing with the Cat Ctec2 800 the past 2 years...... 1st chart is all stock, just out of the rev limiter and in full break-in 2nd chart is after more run time, still in break-in but less added fuel (still full added oil) 3rd chart is with Bullseyes, D&D stock reflash (still in break-in). So on this day, with these crappy weather conditions, we saw the additional airflow and better mapping gave us +/- 10 hp
  4. Yes it is.......... And I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express last night...... AND..... for those who know this one......... I'm good at everything except the things that I can't do
  5. I am very interested to see how these perform also. Found a couple questionable internals so far but it looks like the primary could be much more efficient over past ones. Not sure on a sleeper......basically doing the same as I've done on my 20 & 21..... with a few improvements found along the way...... full exhaust, breathers, head mod, ECU adjustments, etc........... get into the 170s and I'll be okay. Don't need the 180s like my 18 and 19 were.......
  6. Thanks Bontz. Not so much looking for anything different than the 20 or 21 as far as results. More looking at what's different. So far, zip on the motor. Numbers are following the same as the past 2 seasons. But the new clutches will be....... track dyno will show if they are better or not. Shop already located a couple areas to focus on, etc.
  7. And these are the comments that result in guys not sharing their knowledge...... I'm not looking for any bragging rights, specific numbers, or anything else. And I have zero reason to share what we find with anyone here. BTW---- the dyno "operator" is a friend who I have known 30+ yrs. And I have know the shop he is at for my whole life.....and they have a terrific reputation. No reason for anyone to distort what we find. But also need to remember every dyno is different. And every day on the dyno is different from any other. Different air temps, densities, etc...... it's all just a snap shot of that day and time......
  8. Just a guy with a bunch of good friends.....LOL..... Stay tuned.....depending on how I feel about how this goes here, will depend on what I post..............
  9. Picked up the 22 RR today.....and dropped it off at the dyno immediately after........... Tore the ADAPT apart to look inside. Interesting in many ways..... More to come once we get out of break-in and can start getting some pulls on it.......
  10. Either Monday or Tuesday depending on the weather..... Not sure I'll be posting any dyno stuff.........too much of an ass ache for free information. Let the keyboard jackasses pay for it themselves
  11. And I see you pulled the seat off for weight reduction too........better have snagged that battery out too while you were at it !!
  12. Yes sir....... for the wife's 600 LTD.... need to keep her warm.... Happy wife, happy ride....... Been on the other side of that equation........
  13. Correct Mid-sized like what comes on the LTD models--- which is very very similar to the "Cross country" race sled style that isn't available on any consumer sled....except the CC one has a bit more angle at the out lip to push more air up and around the body of the driver. The touring mid and tall are like a window in front of you.....keep the rider warm....especially the tall
  14. 1974 El Tigre 340 twin carb --bought used while in high school. First brand new sled was a 1992 EXT
  15. Yes sir...... the ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME mentality of today is something else....... Hey, maybe Biden will give us government snow and government grooming and government trail marking and.....oh wait...... we aren't illegals.......we get shit ..........
  16. Wanna know the scary part........ I actually thought the same thing........ right up until I saw it was a 153......... My thought..... I have a set of front QS3-Rs and a set of Evol-Xs --- so the front is covered. Depending on what the skid was, I probably have adjustables for there too.... then I saw the ONE FIVE THREE.....and the idea sank............
  17. Makes you wonder if Yami only allows Cat to have the motor in 1 sled so not to impact their own line up and sales numbers ? Yami has the SRX...Cat has the T-Cat............ HOWEVER Yami has a turbo "RR" in the L-TX LE And Yami has the turbo "RIOT" in the X-TX AND Yami has the turbo touring sled..... Sleds some Cat guys have been asking for.... SO.... is it Yami or Cat keeping these sleds on the Yami side of the fence ???? Also strange the the SRX doesn't have the power steering option....it's only on the L-TX GT
  18. I was hoping to see them extend the 2 strokes into the trail segment and not just the mountain max this year.......was hoping it would have better looking colors....... not the case.......
  19. @Crnr2Crnr..... does sound like the "only available the Polaris Race Team" Cross Country has the tipper rails and not the XCR
  20. So..... has anyone been able to confirm whether or not the 2022 XCRs have the tipped 136 rails ????? Looking between a 650 XCR 136 or a VR1 137......be nice to know about the rails on the 136....
  21. At least they won't be battle shit charcoal grey ..... And they have a few models Cat guys want...... the RIOT 998 Turbo for 1. Or at least did in 2021........ Maybe this is Cat's plan all along.... build up Yami so they can produce more for them .... while killing off Cat's numbers so they don't have the responsibility to develop new products..............
  22. Did a quick count tonight..... I got 63 Cats that I have owned.....and I probably missed a couple....... This year.........well...... All I got is it was a sad sad sad sad sad 60th release....
  23. Spending a day riding a Matryx next week. Definitely not a DOO..... Maybe a RR and a VR1 or XCR ??? Or maybe even really stir things up and take next year off...........I can honestly say I haven't missed not having a sled since selling mine almost a month ago........
  24. That was the point of that........ The XCR is pretty much a given. As is the turbo for the MNT guys.... Price increases and delays on deliveries........well.... we saw what happened this year with some of the deliveries.........
