Thanks for reply on gas use. I have about 400 miles now, I'll do the math. Any sugestion on clutch constantly shifting up & down at trail sppeeds.

all due to the bad secondary clutch design on the DD sleds. supposedly the torsional conversions fix that, i havent tried one yet but will be soon. i'm trying to find a good deal on an entire secondary clutch so i can set one up with the torsional and make a direct swap right on the trail to compare.

Clutch spring in primary goes kablamo pretty quick. You can still ride the thing home, but the original spring in the 800 has issues.

My F5 LXR rear suspension shock fades fast to nothing. 550 miles on it , After 1/2 hour riding rear end starts bouncing. Anyone else having this trouble or is it just bad shock?

Just wondering if anyone has this problem. While riding my sled will sometimes go into limp mode. The ECU flashes on the screen. I have to turn it off and that solves the problem for awhile. My dealer said its common with a new sled and thats its just the computer learning the sled. I have just under 500 miles on it . Anyone else experienced this?

Picked up a 2010 F8 leftover for a friend who is coming off a Yamaha, He has only owned Yamaha's. After riding my z1 turbo he decided it was time to jump ship, unfortunately when he took it out, after 5 miles the center shock fell out. He is not impressed with cat quality so far

3500 miles.Timing sensor.Not sure which one as I see on Browns Leisure world micro fiche there are 2.Sled starting cutting out and stalling and sputtering.Thought it might have been stator but dealer found the wires leading to the sensor had worn bare(something to check) and was shorting out the sensor.All fixed.
