You can swap out to the other steering post that comes on the base models. Order thru dealer. Get a riser block you're comfortable with and forget about it. Lots of guys doing that.
^^^ another quality post from doo Guys I see lol.

Not a bash. The riser height or tele steering post is all preference. My whole fam rides cat and this has been a fact back to the 98 powder special. They have always had a bit more slop in the steering than the other three manufacturers. Does it make it a bad sled? Absolutely not. Just a fact. Sorry if I hurt your delicate sensibilities.

Haha no feelers hurt here dude. I couldn't care less. We all ride what we ride for a reason. They all have their issues. Ya can't expect to comment telling a guy on a cat forum to buy a doo without someone gettin a jab in at ya lol. Cheers

[/QUOTE]I suppose I could have worded my original post better. All I'm saying is cat historically has a little more steering play than the others. Not trying to F-up the thread. And they certainly do all have issues. But they also all have they're virtues as well. I'll stfu and hope you guys can help this fellow out. Sorry for any interruption. And I was in no way, shape or form telling him to buy a doo. Lol

I agree 100%. Steering slop has always been an issue for some on a cat. I know mine is sloppy and squeaks after big jump landings and going over the whoops .. Now that can be annoying. But I like the telescopic feature so I'm willing to sacrifice one for another.
PROCLIMB, if u insist on changing it out, I don't think anyone makes a new steering stem that keeps the telescopic adjustability, not yet anyways, I would suggest you order one from your dealer. Can't imagine it's overly easy to change so may wanna think about if its worth it or not. There's some great info over on snowest about this swap. Hope it helps.

Yah ultimately I wanna lose the telescopic steering I don't lower it for trail riding because I don't trail ride, I think it's the worst invention ever that's what I'm blaming the sloppy steering on anyways I'm just afraid if I come off a cornice it's gonna snap I dunno what kind of pressure it takes to snap it big it doesn't feel strong at all I wonder why they even made the m's like that?? Xf sure f sure but not the ms
