stoney Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I installed this kit on my 900TR and finally got a chance to try it out. so far, very good and very happy with it, with no issues and anyone looking to add some more jam and much better throttle response, this is a great kit, awesome performance gains and I think for a reasonable price. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Been thinking about it. Gonna talk to Ledger for some details but I know he likes them. One of the Sledaddicz guys had Ledger put the kit on his new 900R. They did an install video and he did a riding review from Gaspe. I don't need one but.......lol The throttle response is definitely lacking on these sleds compared to my Cat. Especially when you're at speed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Guliz is another guy/ YouTuber that had Chris install one. you are right, don’t need it, but what a difference it makes, totally changes the sleds attitude.

What’s the price gap between the almighty Cat and 900TR w/o the $2,000.00 upgrade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want power that’s much cheaper, buy the cat hands down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy bought a left over '23 900R Adrenaline for $18k plus the crap, I think he was quoted $2k more for a '24. A cheap Sidewinder is $24k+ and a ThunderCat is $28k. Throw $2k at the Doo and it will run with the Cat. Throw $800 at the Cat and the Doo is left behind. The complaint about the Doo is that it runs out of gas at 70 mph while the Cat keeps on pulling. Remember that I am riding the Suzuki Turbo Cat with a trail tune, (225HP cost me $400). At 50 mph, you grab more throttle and it tries to pull the bars from your hands past 100 mph. The Doo is good down low but that top end rush is just not the same. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t sure if you had the tune on the Cat, my buddy did one reasonably cheap too on his and it’s a weapon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIce. Yes my Mach does run out of breath over 60 . But ive been bitten before when I upgraded the power on sleds. So ill keep it stock. I like it when my sleds start and run. Great riding sled so far. I really dont feel a difference from an 850 twin. Hoping to get a few miles on it over the next two weekends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrightonalan Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 60 or 70 mph ,that seems so slow .is it just the Mach's that run like this or all 900r.I would have thought it would pull hard to close to a 100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The throttle response or lack thereof is was keeps me off a 900R. For the riding I do, it would make the most sense but I just hate how far you have to get into the throttle to make it do anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the kit though, the 0 to 100 jam is a huge improvement. I haven’t really tried any top speed runs, honestly though, that doesn’t interest me much, I much prefer the bottom end pull/thrill. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will ride probably it next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you find many stock yamicats, tunes are so cheap on those , all do it, and most seem to say the stock turbo yamicats need the tune to make them more fun to ride.
