Still stock cooler? or did you tuck a after market?
Is this kit just cosmetic or is there benefits?

it shed a fair bit of weight. But it still uses stock cooler.

Nice job! Looks light and clean.

The tail light assembly looks a bit foreign? Is that a Yammy or Doo stock piece? Polarious? Looks like a Polarious product??

You eliminated the outter rear wheels? Funny how some say this is a no - no and others love it? Side hilling advantages etc. Way back in '03 Cat was the first to do it on the Firecats, then in '05 they went back to a 3 wheel rear axel. Polaris has adopted this phylosophy on the RMKS lately. Let us know what your experiences is.

It's an East/West thing. Low snow, hard trails, and fast speeds out East = need for four wheels. Lots of snow, off trail riding and cruising the deep = need for only 2 wheels. Firecats had stability issues at high trail speeds, hence the guys crying for 4 wheels. Around here I would say all you need is 2. Just my opinion.

Good point Duane. :) My experience is that the "missing" outter wheels make little difference in handling. I ride hard and my Firecat handles as good as my old '98 Zr which handled like it was on rails. Like you said, if we rode on hard pack all the time then maybe that extra microscopic bit of stability would be nice?
