Are there any Canadian dealers for his kits?

I dealt with him direct.
To give an honest review.,,, I never found it much of an advantage/value per $$ IMO.
Now that there are more XMx sleds in my group, I will try to remember to do more side by side comparisons. They use the same ramps, sure you change the pin weights, springs, helix and gearing, but the price isn't as good value now that they now use the stock ramps..\\
I'll report back in November.
cheers.
Oh Lenny, seriously shut the hell upGreat , thanks for the report. So, around the little boy playground and the bunny hill where cuso has the sack to ride, this kit doesn't impress him , terrific, in the mountains or off the groomed trail it may work well, but light in the loafers cuso, wouldn't Be able to comment on that. Lol
Oh Lenny, seriously shut the hell up
I to have a buddy with a rooster built kit, pretty much took it all out now
Not sure how much can be improved on the stock xm ??????
Your kidding right ? I do agree that it works okay for the masses but is a lot to be desired .
Great if you want your ass kicked constantly by a clutched and geared sled.
Don't go off on some rant about this guy and that that guy and so on as have been out with lots of them well tuned factory stock sleds.
Make rpm and no pull just buzzzzzz.
Oh wait the suspension is set up so the ski's go strait up in the air so they must be great?
I have a stock 2012 etec that is geared and clutched with a 2.5 x 174 and have yet to be out pulled in race with and stock XM with 154 or 163.
To me that is embarrassing.
But they are perfect right ?
Jeeesh

That's what my buddy said also, for us that tree ride and need the Brappp and snap, and not pulling cliff climbs, the kits are made for climbing wot for periodsanother honest review:
I put a rooster kit in my '13.. at first it felt like it hits a lot harder and i got more track speed.. but in actual riding conditions those characteristics didn't really equal better riding. The harder hit would just make me trench and really threw me off my throttle control while boondocking or tree riding. and the track speed, well, it was due to the 21t top gear, which caused me to blow belts in the deep stuff
3 belts later I called him and he suggested I put my 19t gear back in to help with the belt issues ...
there goes the track speed .. and low and behold, still blowing belts
Another thing I noticed was that after 500-600 km I couldnt get proper RPMs anymore, no matter how much I cleaned / maintained / rebuilt my clutch or dropped pin weight... Do his springs lose their springiness quicker than factory ? Who knows ...
Paul is a Good guy and provides good service but needless to say, my '15 will stay stock.
Great , thanks for the honest review.
