Just picked up an 09 M8 162 Sno Pro today. Stock for now. May add RKT head and SLP pipe down the road. Riding mostly around 9000ft
Wondering if the stock clutching(73 gr, yellow primary, orange secondary, 36 deg helix) is going to be as bad as stock clutching in my 06 M7 162?
My M7 seemed to have terrible backshift. I ended up switching to 42/36 progressive with Team Red/White in order to get a good upshift and backshift. I tried just about everything with the straight 36 and got either poor upshift or poor backshift. Was running 68s, SLP Blk/Pink(120/340) and seemed to have it running well 42 MPH track speed with Speedwerx pipe, RKT head, and boondocker box. Stock was around 36 MPH.
Anyone have good luck with progressives in the M8? Same angle I'm assuming?
I didn't try the torsional setup, but my buddies have had mixed results with it and hate to throw away $300 especially when I felt I had the compression setup working well last year.
I'm shooting for 7800 RPM if memory serves me?
What rate is Cat yellow primary?
One thing is the engagement seems a lot smoother on the M8.
What track speed are people seeing with 162s at what altitude?
Thanks guys
Picture is just for fun!
