Looks like a great build!

Based on past experience you may want to rethink the belt belt drive. Found the benefit was not worth the effort or expense.

Just my $.02

sounds cool. I got a new turbo and have been on the fence about a belt drive. Can you tell a big difference in performance? are they equally reliable?

On my 13 800 Etec and my 17 G4 850 I noticed a quicker trigger to track response, I in my opinion its more reliable why you may ask = break a belt you install a new belt, break a chain and there is a possibility thats not all your going to break, seen many a chain cases broke N sleds stranded or getting towed out :cry:

Less rotating mass = more power to the track IMO (y)

A few things I'll be adding to mine this winter that I've really liked the last few seasons and you might consider!
11. SLP mowhawk skis
12. 3" CFR risers (I'm a short fella)
13. CFR Munster Bars
14. CFR Mountain strap
15. ODI Grips
16. Muster Finger throttle (huge fan, some people aren't)
17. Torsion Spring Spacers (this will be a first)
18. Grip N Rip bulkhead brace kit
19. Fox 2.0 QS3's (coming off my 2017 summit)
20. Some kind of T-motion lockout or delete (currently run ZRP lockout washers)

Storage:
1. Ski-doo slim waterproof bag (great for longer trips, can get heavy fast, only fits in 1 location but has a relocation kit sold separately)
2. ski-doo riser bag or similar (a definite for me this upcoming season for googles or goggle lenses and other quick access items)
3. behind seat box (looks like a good spot for tools and a few road sodas & gatorade)
4. The new ski-doo deep snow bag is pricey and an unpretty yellow, but it looks like a condensed version of the slim which would be lighter and more convenient for shorter days
5. Avy bag for med kit and in-case-of-emergency items

I've got the skidoo mesh back goggle bag that goes in the clutch side, imo not worth the money. Goggles will get dirty, better off using the original silk sock the goggles come in instead.

This thread just got me excited for this upcoming season!
