Pretty deep today. Only had 2 bogs so I’ll consider that a victory. Both times happened on a downhill. Snow was pretty dry.

I would bet it's an intake bog over an exhaust bog. Cat's intake is like swiss cheese especially the 18's.

That’s strange. This is the first sled I’ve ever owned that didn’t bog In Deep snow. I’m the one on the right.

On your left gauge, flip it to intake air temp.

I am curious if the bog has any correlation to intake air temps.

Silly question but did you melt a hole in your air plenum?

Ok I’ll keep an eye on it. It was deep as hell again so tough to see the gauge. Snow was a bit heavier today.

Popping a clutch belt every 250miles. How do you make these things not blow belts like a Polaris or 17/18 doo 850?

Just ride like me! LOL

I blew a belt a couple days ago while I was poaching the hell out of the line from a 154 expert. Can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m probably going to have to ride a skidoo next season to end my belt issues once and for all. 50+ belts the last 6 years. Oh yeah and the skidoo doesn’t bog right as you’re about to jump an open creek. Maxwell was right.

belt issues follow you from sled to sled.....I hate to be the one to ask, but what are you doing to cause this :confused:
