If you guys could give me some jumping tips that'd be cool, I know the throttle it if you tip down or brake if your up to far but, if you guys know any more please tell me, because I took this huge jump yesterday and jarred my back pretty bad, thanks.
Always remeber to stand up, try to hit the jump squared up(strait as possible), keep a steady throttle on the approach, and try to pre-load a little for good air. If you do all of these you should be fine and not have to make any adjustment in the air - i.e braking or throttling up and like jb said a good landing is a must, good luck!
yeah... Here is what i've learned to work good with my sled:
get to an even steady speed, just slightly lower than what you plan to hit the jump at. When you get at the base of the jump, gas it up the face. Then I let off while i'm in the air, and the sled stays perfectly level.
Yea that's what i usually do, except on straight up cornices, it doesn't always work like that, I used those tips today, thanks guys, but sadly my sled burnt down, had to haul it back about 35 miles, but without the belt it dragged along easy, Got some great cornice jumping in, but it was a white out so we stayed fairly close, well let's just hope it wasn't anything to big that screwed up! Already spent enough on the stupid thing to get it to run good.
I've been trying to figure out through the search and even google,
so far though I have an idea... any snowmobile that is older, especially 90's and circa 2000, that is modded up seems to be called a beater?
I just got property that is not year round access - but I think beater sleds are my...
So I am building a small buggy style vehicle and I am using a two stroke Ski doo engine for it.
Never owned a snowmobile or messed with one before so I had a few questions.
Firstly, where can I find a good wiring diagram for the donor sled so that I can incorperate everything back into the...
Just curious what’s everyone riding nowadays, older members, new members doesn’t matter! How do you like it? I finally upgraded from an 02 Polaris XC 500 I’ve had for over 8 years to a 2012 Yamaha nytro mtx and wow was I shocked...
Hello there!
New forum user and new snowmobile owner here. I've bought 1998 Polaris Trail Touring. When I brought it home I noticed unexpected item attached with fishing swivel to the gas level stick. My first thought was that it was fuel pickup filter but it doesn't have a connector for the...
I have a 2004 Polaris 600 RMK vertical edge. Ran it for the past 2 winters with no problems. Recently it starts fine but then after about 10 - 15 minutes of riding it loses power, bogs down and dies. It will restart right after it dies, if I let it sit for a few mins and runs fine for a few...
