would you bother floating your QRS on the XM ?

[SidewaysInto3rd]

I did a bunch of research on this and seemed like most people who recommended floating the QRS were on the 08/09 XPs with alignment issues

I'm coming off a rev with a floated secondary that never blew a belt ..Considering XM belts are almost $200 after tax, is it worth my dime to spend the $500 ish on a doo doctor kit on the XM? or have they sorted that issue out by now !?

thanks

Probably the same set up as the 12's. I havent heard of anyone having issues on the 12's. I put almost 1000kms on mine without any issues.

Ya I wouldn't bother. 1400ish km on my 2012 on one belt, I'm pretty sure they have it figured out. I won't do it on my xm either.

 

[schiermnultra]

wouldnt bother. The new belts are much better aswell .

 

[dropitbuster]

Unless it's a Proclimb don't bother.

4000km+ on my 12 and sent it back with the original belt! What a beast, cant wait for the XM

Curtis, you work way to hard, take some time off if you only got 4000 + km on your sled,,,,,,,,,,,,,LOL

If you have $500 burning a hole in your pocket, then go ahead. it will help to cut down on belt dust for sure but the new belts are pretty good. Its just one of those things you can doo as a neat accessory but I don't think its totally necessary unless you get a rare belt eater.....

No it won't help with belt dust. Thats why i bought it. I have one for sale 250$ if you want it. Was defd not worth the money on the 2012. Never blew a belt until I installed that thing

 

[pigfarmer]

Do you have the Doo Dr. Kit or was that the Floating QRS Short shaft kit from BRP? Surprised that a floating Secondary blew belts for you.

 

[maxwell]

Doo dr

Thats odd, I ran the team secondary and team jackshaft on my 08 and other than the team didn't work as good as the QRS, dust was reduced and I liked the ability to remove it.
What comes with your Doo doc setup?, I'm interested anyway.....

This is an old thread, sort of, and Payam has now had lots of time on his new beast. Probably more that anyone!

I think No Limits are pretty reliable in the PDI process and you should have no problem with belts young fellow. JMHO from the other side of the left coast….

yep loved the ability to remove it. Belt dust was not reduced not sure why. But now with brand new sleds with no plans of modifications I have no foreseeable reason to remove the secondary

Yep I found the same results using the team. less belt dust and heat, and never blew a belt running a 3".
As far as floating on my 2011 after I was done checking the alignment the clutch needed to float about .070". the new jackshaft is 3MM longer on the 2012. Im not sure what jack shaft is being used on the doo doc kit.

No problems are being had

I just took mine in for the "10 hr" service at 14 hours .. buddy has 20 hours on his .. just been pulling rope and pulling throttle !

Only thing I had to do was tighten my track a bit .. apparently they stretch ..
