Any advice for helix and secondary spring as well as primary spring?

It is the 2.86 pitch. I was thinking of the 1.74 ratio with adjustable weights. I see a couple guys have them in the classified section here. One is the BMP Goldstar and I had those on my last sled. The other is SSI that I am not familiar with. Not sure if they are a good idea or if buying...

I think it's 2.86 and the XCR has the 2.52? I will have to check to be sure.

So last March or April maybe I scoured this sight and surmised what might work good for me for clutching and gearing. I wrote it all down so I could source the parts when I had time. That time never came and I decided tonight would be a good time to do so. Well guess that list by my night stand...

I have never used the snow trackers so I don't know how they affect handling except that they are good for eliminating darting or tracking so I have heard. Tighter rear spring as stated above may help especially turning while under power. A loose front track spring will place more of the...

What about the way it corners is not good? Steers hard? Pushes in corners? Lifts a ski? Everyone wants something different. Tell us what your set up is like now and what if any traction products you are using and then it would be easy to tell you how and what to adjust. Just an example but I...

I have the X2 seat for my switchback. My 7yo rides back there quite a bit. His feet are about 8-10" from reaching the running boards. Just wondering if anyone has seen a fix for this?

I am new here as well. I just bought a new Switchback Pro S 800. I have been riding Cats since 2005 but had 5 Polaris sleds before that. I look forward to learning the tricks to make this new sled rip and new friends here.
