dunno.gif Has anyone had a 890 psi motor? I'm a trail rider and don't need a sled that is going to burn down. Opinions welcome

Didnt have the 890 PSI. But I'll never go with them again.... left me out on the lake three times....They kept correcting the problems and changing the specs. I had to finally stop the cycle by getting out and testing for 3 days to get everything right on the carbs... :banghead:

I did have one the first year they came out, the power isn't any more than a 800 cat twin. I had the power valves break off 3 times and went through the motor twice. But they sure look good. Joel

PSI's quality has gone straight into the CAN !

early to mid 90's they made rockets, now PSI stands for Pretty Shitty Investment !

I hope you do not actually think your doing 130mph.

You COULD muster up 113mph though. :div20:

my buddy bought a 1080 genesis sled from a worker at PSI, and the thing doesn't run like it should. It has EVERYTHING done to it and hardly beats his dad's ported 900

Do you remember which worker ? I know a few guys that used to work there, ya know why they don't work there anymore ?

Was tired or racing to the bank on Fri so see who's paycheck would be good and who's would bounce.

your not set up right then
the 1080 performs with the right gearing carb jets and propper clutching
and ofcourse good carbides in your track with a good scratch pattern
