Turbo starting.

Good evening. Just thinking??? Is there a way to hook up a battery charger so you can change the shot at home before you hit the road. Would be nice. We could pull start when new now broke in and my friend can not pull over. Hard for me. Love it.

Hook the + and - terminals up to your tongue, the human body is capable of creating 100milavolts. By the time you get to the hill, she’ll be ready to go.

better deal would be to use one of those portable booster packs?

The answer is no lol that’s a computerized system that I wouldn’t be fawkin with. It’s also a capacitor not a battery

Why would this be even thought of. I remember this question being asked on snowest.

Yes you can charge any capacitor, why would you, pull the cord and charge it with the engine.

He answered that in the first post. And others have had issues as well. Crazy hard to pull over

Simple

Electric start is the next option for those who have a hard time pulling a cold sled over.

How big is your friend? He can muscle the fasted sled out there, but he can't start it?

Old Boy · Dec 28, 2020

Good Morn it’s my ride. He rides a 174. He has been out 25 times this year. But just like me we are in the Golden years. Hope you make .

NoBrakes! · Dec 28, 2020

The only thing i can suggest is keep the sled warm, they’re never easier when cold. I have heard some electric start nightmares on the G4 and with the crankshaft lightened and the gear removed on yours, that’s not an option anyways.

That would be slick, a plug in the rear tunnel area so you could steal power from the trucks trailer plug to charge the capacitor.

NoBrakes! · Dec 28, 2020

Haha Joey can probably tether a plug in to his piggyback and away you go! ****in stage 4 and shot first thing in the morning! Life’s good in 2021

Merc63 · Dec 28, 2020

If a guy can’t pull over a sled I really question his ability to ride it... is this a joke? April fools already?

NoBrakes! · Dec 28, 2020

Half the turbo 4 stroke crowd can’t breath after doing up their boots, nevermind dig you out...

this guys older and wants to shred, why hate? Let’s get creative

Merc63 · Dec 28, 2020

Man no one is jealous he wants to shred. Serious thing, you can’t pull your sled over I don’t think you should be riding it in the mountains. Unless he wants to putt around the cabin. Just asking for a bad day or a serious injury.

JMCX · Dec 28, 2020

The Shot capacitor may operate at a different voltage than a typical battery. And even fully charged may not itself have the grunt for a cold motor.

NoBrakes! · Dec 28, 2020

You’re telling me, this thing can adjust timing and boost control but not put millivolts into a capacitor? Da****outtahere...

dropitbuster · Dec 28, 2020

Nearly pulled my shoulder out the other morning not expecting the first pull to be so hard. Definitely harder than my 18. Perhaps consider standing on the side of the sled and using 2 hands for the first start. The Shot should have it for the rest of the day.

Put a little circulating heater in the sled and plug it in, much easier to pull start, and use a little generator to power it when driving or an inverter. Yamaha has a small heater available
