I've been out rid'in a few times & then when I get home, I tear all the side covers off & give the bike the once over ..... ...

When I look at how it's put together & what it may need, I have the track use in the back of my mind .... with snow going every where .... and, if I get into any deep water or in a hole where the bike is half in & half out ...

First thing I noticed was the CVT exhaust ... I thought to myself .... "YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDD'IN ME !!??" .......... I mean, the airbox intake is HIGH .... the CVT intake I bought for track use from the dealer (A BRP Option) is even higher (It's under the dash pod) .... so before I saw Stray's threads, I ordered a snorkle kit from "Snorkle Your ATV" .... I got it ... and in my opinion ........ What a POS !!! ... nothing fit like it was suppose to ... anyway, as a stealth snorkle.

I ended up only using 3 parts from the kit & two pieces of the hose ... which I cut up ....... and snorkled the CVT Exhaust. And almost screwed that up ..... glued it all together before I checked my shifter movement & then had to "Rearrange" it .....

I kept the factory "Snow Snorkle" on the CVT Intake since it works great, is high, & has a waterproof filter on it.

And I ordered an EHS Racing airbox lid today ...


My brother has an 06 & has had issues with stators & winching .... so we are gonna put dual batteries on his ride with an isolator .... and I ordered my parts as well ........ maybe I don't need'em with a 2011, but I do lots of plowing & winching in the winter & I don't need to have that worry in the back of my head ....


And I'm hop'in to order some clutches next week .... if I hear back from Airdam .......... WOO HOO !!! Look'in a CVTech primary & from what I've read, the stock driven works great after Adam machines the belt surfaces.

I'm also looking at the STM Roller Driven ... but haven't heard much about it other than it shifts up & down pretty smooth.


After THAT ........ I'm done !!!!

Yeah Adam at Airdam did a great job on my stock clutch. I did the stage 5 setup and it really works well. I'm pulling 82mph now on GPS with it.

I wanted to get a cvtech from him recently once I found out he was selling them. However, after leaving him 3 messages and sending 2 emails over the past two weeks with no repsonse from any of them, I have given up. I will either wait til I get my 2012 Renegade or find another cvtech dealer since it doesn't look like I am gonna have any luck with him. Shit happens I guess.

The STM secondary is supposed to be phenomenal but it takes some tuning to get it working right and to figure out what angle helix you need for your setup.

Let us know how it goes.

Yeah, I hear he can be a bugger to get in touch with at times .... here's hop'in I can when I want to ....

That's what kinda scares me about the STM ... I really don't think I know enough about these types of clutches to be dink'in around with them much .... and it's such a pain for me to try something ... test it .... make any changes I want .... and test it again.

Why you ask ?? .... Well, this time of year, I have to drive at least 100 miles one way to ride .... so ......... and even in the summer, I have to drive 50 miles one way to ride


But that STM clutch sure is pretty !!

She's looking good Gunny! Have you rode 2 up on it yet? What's your thoughts on it with the Mrs. on back?

THANKS Butch ...

Nope, not yet (riding 2-up) ... the wife needs another hip replacement so she won't be riding probably until mid-July or August ...

I finished the front bumper ... here's how it looks now ...


And I'm still making other changes .... put an EHS airbox lid on today & removed the stock air intake & plugged it off ... put on a CVT exhaust snorkle (the intake comes stock snorkled) .... Doing a dual-battery setup tomorrow .... then I'm gonna header wrap my exhaust.

Next week I hope to order the XMR clutch covers & both new primary & secondary clutches !!

And I found a oil cooler & remote oil filter kit I'm gonna order ........ and then I THINK I'm done ......



WHAT ??
