i can tell you mine don't feel like it has the horsepower my pro x has. but i think thats a traction/weight thing..id say 125-130
Arctic-Cat
sweet thanks, any idea when pistons usually go, i m at 7500 miles
Zsnow
i only have 2135 on my SPX so i can't tell you. but if they have never been replaced before. id say its about time..

My neighbor has one. It has some V-Force II's and a cannister set up, some clutching and a Rip Saw. it goes ok. It is beat to shit but it runs like a top. 6000 plus miles on it. I have a 97 Storm with close to 10,000 miles on it and the 680 is right there until WFO. then it is bye bye.

im going to get rid of tis sled and aim for an f6 or f7 if i dont end up with any of those im going to get a 440 or move west for a mountain sled in a couple years
U-Con
Yep 133hp, was very typical.

now way it will have only 130 hp I have a stock storm 750 and it has 128. with pipes on your sled it would probably have around 140-145 hp.
Too Slow

A buddy of ours dynoed that particular model ultra back in its day on his land & sea portable dyno....made 128 hp if i remember correctly. Heavy sled though.

Stock 93 750 storm properly tuned made close to 140 hp. Our guys raced one...sled was never beaten that year.

Thats about right. 140-145
U-Con
The SPX had factory tripples, as did the 750 and 800 Storms. The SPX, being a 680, did have about 133hp. The single piped SP, with aftermarket pipes, put out in the mid to upper 140's, as would the SPX w/ aftermarket pipes. Much the same as the 800 Storm would be, jetted correctly. A 750 Storm would not hit the 140's without porting.
