It's no secret that winter 23/24 has been off to a slow start. fortunately for me, our riding area has been getting hit with consistent spurts of snow making for 2.7 feet of snow in the fields as measured on 1/6 with more on the way this week! This is my 3rd time snowmobiling not on a tour and first time truly exploring the powder.
Miss piggy (my 2006 Polaris Switchback) appears to be running strong until we get into the deeper snow. I replaced the clutch spring and went with an Almond and swapped the 60 gram weights for 49.5 grams to get some more RPMs. The sled is still bogging and now we have a hypothesis that it is ingesting steam from when snow gets into the engine bay with the intake not being sealed very well. Ill be applying some weather stripping to try and fix that issue.
As far as the RMK 800 - I parted it out and sold it. I am realizing I need something newer to keep up with the crew and since I only paid $400 for it. I have already got my money back and plan on saving up for something nicer next season!
