Can anyone tell me the optimum RPM for my Summit 1000 in the mountains pulling a hill? I have heard everything from 7500 - 9000. Actually, any tips about my machine would be great.

have played with it quite a bit, and i have timbersled pods and clutching done..... Seems to pull hardest between 7900 and 8200rpms.... Keep it there and you'll be happy! Enjoy the big girl, and don't worry about m1 attack cuz the stock 1000 summit will kick any stock 1000 cat out there(AND EVEN MOST MODDED ONES, I know from experience)......

Best tip I can give is get rid of it and buy a cat:trustme:
that would be your biggest mistake, havent truly seen a cat that will run with one comparing apples to apples, get a dynoport high volume pipe and can, dalton clutch kit, run it at 7950 rpm and u will love this sled and the power it make's, not gonna lie to you they r heavier till you put the pipe and can on, then once your on the throttle they r a nice sled to ride, my opinion at least, and I think I'm usually right, but who doesn't, PM me if you want more info

I would agree with this pipe and some clutching will go a long way rode an 05 RT for couple years. I think it and the M1000 are both pretty solid machines. Can't beat the snap of a big two stroke............ but i'm now a 4stroke turbo junkie hard to compare to.

If it competition you want I can bring Gages 550 RMK when we go, I just wish I still had the o'l Mtn Max just to keep things close.
But as you know I will be bringing My RT :Snowmobile1:Just wish we could actually have some time to visit on the hill:( I guess if SR and I make enough tracks you should be able to poach your way to the top and we can see each other there, or at the trucks.
Cant wait for the shootout:PDT_gun:

Ya maybe you should bring the 550 either that or grab those little round things out off Shauna's purse and then and only then will you have a remote chance at climbing with the big cats.:ha_ha: And Shredder you might as well get yours from Lisa. Unless Lorna carries them for all her son in laws.LOL:eek::eek::eek:
