2013 XM 163 geared down?

[thegeneral]

XM 163 has 19T/52B gears. Discuss

Wow didn't think there was room to add another tooth. My bet is its preparation for the factory 3" in 2014.

19/52?? Are you sure that right? 19/51 is what was used last year in the 163.
If that is right can you post a pic of the bottom gear please.

Or a new belt drive ratio to turn a factory 174".

A buddy swapped his track on Sunday and that's what he told me. I asked several times and he says yes. I will be swapping mine tomorrow night so I'll see myself then. If he's wrong, I'll roast him on here lol

Sorry my bad I meant 21/49 that's what it shows on the parts fiche unless that's for the 146

 

[mtnrev]

That may be the 146 pretty sure they told me 19/49 when I picked mine up. May have to pull the top plug out to make sure

In 09 154's were not 21/49 from the factory from what I recall. Maybe a dealer swap. They were 19/45. 163 was 21/49. 146 was 21/45.

In 2012 (I would have to confirm the 2011) they went silly low on the 163's with the 19/51. 154's are 19/49 which isn't bad. We used to swap out to a 20/51 in the 154 and 163's to get basically the same gear ratio as the 19/49.

They should still be 19/49 this yea for the 154's. 19/51 for the 163's. I found the stock 163's too low.

If you don't know what it all means you should turn over your new 163 XM to me right away...






It is the gear ratios. The top gear is the smaller number, the bottom is the larger number.

 

[mtnrev]

Just checked my sled and can confirm 154 XM is geared at 19/49

Hey general, are you swapping out a 163? If so interested in selling it?

 

[lightening1000]

BRP keep gearing down to bandaid their inefficient clutch system, i think.. i like the 2.15/ 2.25 ratio and for boosted sleds i like 2.05 ish thats geared very low already..the sled is in way to low of a gear when cruising the trail to get anywhere!! reving too high i found.
