I love breaking those page top bulbs!!

For the LP and UP of Mi and Wisconsin, swap/sell those stock 10-66 weights and run 10-68 weights. Out west no idea.

Just add grease when new and they work and last perfectly fine.  Personally I fill mine and check them every ~2500 miles.  

Hmmm, is there a part number in your post

Polaris part # 3514617, for the left side jackshaft and driveshaft bearing. Anyone know the aftermarket part #. NSK, NTN, All balls, or???? Want quality not junk.

Really not needed if you’re using ethanol blended fuel. 

I run E10 premium in all of my 800 sleds. No issues. The only time I run rec fuel is if that’s the only high octane fuel the station that I’m filling at, has. A lot of UP stations only have rec fuel in their high octane tanks. 

Cost. I believe that was their only marketing ploy with saying that it was designed to run on regular/non premium gas. 
 

Also, the lower the octane, the easier it starts. Especially in colder weather. 

I don't run ethanol

FWIW I run a bottle of Techron in each sled a couple times a season, same for Sierra,Terrain, and Mustang

@racerdave - Dave ... you own a 650, don't you?  And I'm pretty sure we ride the same types of trails with similar riding styles, too.  What is your feedback?

Power wise, It reminds me of the 700's I had. Accelerates hard. The only thing I don't like is the narrowness of the seat front. That's personal preference. Maybe if I didn't ride the tank, and pulled my handlebars back, instead of so far forward, the seat would be a non issue.  Fuel consumption is on par with my 850. I think the 650 could go down as a legendary motor for Polaris , like the original 700 BB has. As far as fuel goes, where I ride I always get 91 non ethy, pretty much from the same stations all the time in the last 20 plus years. No problems yet. Luck?

average 10-12' tilt bed double wide

you don't need ski guides for the final foot or so, and only so much track touches the ground or trailer deck in this case

mine is a 12' deck with 128" skids (see above)

idk what kind of trailer he bought so...

 

Agree if a tilt. If drive on/off more quides and matts needed

math

$3.54 x 10 x 2 for the ski guides (mentioned above) for one sled = $70.80 per side / double wide = $141.60

if track mats if required = $45.65 each x 2 = $91.30

$232.90 to properly outfit a trailer = BFD

Somehow your math comes across for a very short trailer?

As Zambo mentioned ... if you're looking to save $$$ just find an insert type truck bed liner and cut it into strips and screw them down for ski runners.  Otherwise, yeah, Caliber is what we have installed in our trailer.  That shit was expensive 5 or 6 years ago, I can't even imagine how bad it is now.

Agreed. Bought all my guides and matts at Milwaukee show  October 17, for my 2018 Triton 12 foot Prestige. . The deal then was 10% 0ff and free shipping to my house. Can't imagine that now

I've got a 2021 Mach Z thats stock other than a ECU tune pushing it to 180hp.  It's a fucking handful to handle in sport mode trail riding.  Just how much HP does a guy need?  It's getting ridiculous.

Yet you tuned yours for more

Those trucks are still a dime a dozen, who cares.  Hot rodding is all about doing different stuff.  Except the junkyard ls china turbo route as mentioned..

Many care.

Or the original 300 6cyl with three on the tree ... 

That was a great motor. Had several of them in F100's and 150's

It's adjustable by using differant main jet sizes...I had a Zuk 1000 as lean as a 260 MJ at a grass drag back around 2014ish...

I remember the Cat guys using them. Simple but efective

So who knows what these are and changing them outside when it got below zero.

Got a couple of them yet. One for Mikuni, one for Khein. Not sure what toolbox they are in though

I have a quiet one.  It may be quiet compared to some other aftermarket ones but I don't consider it quiet.  It's most noticeable at start up and low speeds.. these are the times is most want it quiet.  When you're on the gas it's barely louder.  But slow speeds it's quite a bit louder.  Light though.  And they say you pick up a little power.

Don't they all say that?

I'm guessing the current HCS is also not on the level it used to be.

Awesome sound. Seen it before. Sounds like an F1 car.

Had a chance to buy the Kawasaki inline 6, passed it up. 

Regrets, I have a few....

The Kawi was liquid cooled, more of a touring bike. The CBX more exotic, more a screamer. And i am a Kawi guy.
