no clue ....I would assume its just a jet kit but if its older never know what kind of issues could pop up trying to convert it

Older one would likely be orifice change and gas valve spring  change, pretty easy to do.

It's a possibility!

Lots of snow N of 28. No need to go to Faggot Hill 

 

 

Trails were great on Sunday. Picked up 6-8" Sat night into Sunday. And it was still snowing.

 

Unfortunately, I had to cut my trip short and come home. Dad's in the hospital. Had to have surgery yesterday and is still in the ICU recovering. About to head up there in a few and sit with mom. Sucked leaving that, but it is what it is   Still lots of winter left. 

 

 

On a side note.  Love my Renegade XRS. Haven't even really messe with anything yet, because the trails were so different Saturday than they were on Sunday. It handled pretty damn good how I got it from the factory.  Was about to start playing with the adjustments on the front end a bit, then I found out about my dad at a stop. So we just headed back and packed up and headed out.

 

Still in break in mode , but it hauls ass pretty damn good as is :news:

Thanks Jeff :bc:  I left the hospital about 4:45, and he was doing a lot better. Hopefully he will be in a regular room tomorrow. But for now, he's still in the Surgical ICU recovery. 

 

So if speedo is 10 high. And I was reading 110 , at 60%+ still left on break in. And it was still pulling, when I had to let off, this sled it gonna fly after break in mode :bc:

Not asking you to get into any details , jay , but is pop gonna be ok ?

Hopefully.  He is continuing to improve and the Dr's all seem to be positive, so now its just a matter of wait and see.  They're talking a couple weeks in the hospital to recover.  He's so drugged up right now, all he's really doing is sleeping . Which is good because the more rest he gets the better he will be and quicker to recover.   Shitty way to spend you 84th birthday (tomorrow)   Although there is some mighty fine eye candy there where he's at. :bc: To bad he's to high on pain meds appreciate the "scenery" :lmao:

No, no it isn't at all when their health deteriorates.  He's been going downhill for about the past 6 1/2 years . I worry about my mom. She's gonna be a mess when he's gone. They've been together over 60 years

Hell no it's not and I feel your pain! Hope your dad makes a speedy recovery. My mom had another heart attack while snowbirding in Florida last week and my dad, after the cancer and his stroke, is having a real hard time with things. Stubborn old Pollock won't let me help much either. I hate seeing them get old.

Positive note I'm headed up to Strongs next weekend and Lewiston the weekend after that. Chili cook off on our lake this weekend and some friendly races. Glad to see winter made it back
