Marcel Posted 18 hours ago Author Share Posted 18 hours ago The ultimate sled....lol. It was a 2001 ski- doo 800 cc twin..think pushing out 140 hp. It was a limited run machine made to promote the following year machine who would be called the Renegade... Back then all trail machines ran a shorter track length..this was the first year a 136 inch track was introduced ...and it blew everything off the trails...ski-doo put the works into this machine..to clutchs ..engine..everything was top notch...I learned of this model coming out...through my dealer where I bought countless machines from..we are actually good friends and at time would ride together...there was only 1 machine per dealer available and had to be pre-ordered with a deposit...

Marcel Posted 18 hours ago Author Share Posted 18 hours ago At the time all major manufacturers were running triple cylinders sleds..artic cat had the thunder cat 1000..ski-doo had the mach z triple...polaris the 800 storm triple ...Yamaha had the 700 srx triple.. Ski-doo broke the mold by going with a twin...everyone figured a 800cc twin two stroke was just not physically possible at the time..has it wouldn't be reliable for trail riding...400cc pistons spinning at high rpm..

Marcel Posted 18 hours ago Author Share Posted 18 hours ago Anyway...that thing would launch like 4 sled lengths before the other were barley moving out of the hole...it had 136 inch track with 1.5 inches..full block track ( had the track changed to a full block design ).it was branded has a summit 800...I pulled out a pic on the net...sure i have actual pictures of it somewheres You can see the actual difference in track length compared to that polaris next to it..

Marcel Posted 17 hours ago Author Share Posted 17 hours ago 51 minutes ago, Pedro said: The following year the other manufacturers had caught on ( 2022) with the track length...all of the big bore sleds had a similar models running...Cat had the mountain cat 1000 triple...but those were the last years of the triple..like dinausor they went extinct not long after...mostly cause of the front end weight...compared to a twin...

Marcel Posted 16 hours ago Author Share Posted 16 hours ago Ya every little secret trick was used to get and edge on another sled ...like running automatic transmission fluid in the chain case instead of gear oil...lol....constant tickering with clutch setting..to cams..to springs...even made customs rams with a dip cut into them...it would act like a stall convert on a automatic car transmission...lol...great years and memories...lol.
