2004 Skidoo Rev 500ss Vs 1997 Skidoo Mxz 670

[@bwyyy7306]

The old rotary valve engines pulled hard

[@elitecystuning]

97 zr580 Still hands them they’re a$$ from a dig to bout 90mph then they start slowly coming up on me 🤘 From a dead dig tho rotary or not 90s sleds ripped! Lol

[@GearheadRob319]

I have a rotary valved rotax, and beg to differ. Where you at? Id be willing to run a zr580, had a few including zr 700. And a zr580 wont pull with a 670. Not gonna happen. 580=100hp Max. 670=120 to 129hp. @@elitecystuning

[@jimmyhendrix3207]

i had a 98 formula Z 670 and that thing was wicked fast, it would just never grab traction, would pull the front end right up to 12 o clock like it was nothing

[@shavedape]

If it pulls the front end vertical wouldn't that meant the opposite to 'never grabbing traction'?

[@elitecystuning]

Lucky bastards I’m stuck working not up north 😂😩🤘 My 97 zr580 still absolutely hands new sleds they’re a$$ in a to go bag! 🤣🔥🔥 rev’s went pretty good too NGl I’m just a cat guy lol Unless we’re on the lake …. Forget it! That old 600cc cat Absolutely haul’s the mail to this day . (Fully and then some 😁modded zr580 EFI , 97 ext 580efi with zr suspension. Basically black hooded zr lol. Also have my 2005 “crazy boosted and controlled “t660 turbo🤘💪 have fun fellas great vid .

[@horatiohuffnagel7978]

I had a 99 formula z 670 and I swear it had more balls then my 2000 formula z 700. The 670 was a sweet engine.

[@bb4jdmlude]

the 670 had more power than the 700

[@JayTheFirst]

@@bb4jdmlude it didnt literally have more power but my 583 walks away from some big sleds.

[@mikehorkan3924]

Nice. Had a 97, 670 back then that was dialed in and faster than it should have been. Hurt a lot of feelings with that sled. Would have loved to run it against my 04 800 but the motor in the 670 let go one too many times and was not the same.

[@JoshuaLemire]

ya our 670 has some trail porting, shaved down head for tigher squish and clutching and gearing with the 1.25 ripsaw studded she hooks and goes. its torque monster on hole shots

[@Turppa21]

Didnt they put 10 more horse in the 05 500ss? That might get it

[@ahmedmedah-d2x]

bro you are gonna blow it upp

[@Eepex1]

How ?

[@shannonjensrud5712]

Both sweet Ski Doos seem to be quick. But man that 500 seems to be a rocket outta the hole. Any mods done to it?

[@JoshuaLemire]

ya straightline performance head,y-pipe,pipe jaws can , clutching, geared for 91mph 1.5 intense track, and a suspension mod for more weight transfer that mod is the reason why its gets traction out the hole

[@bobg3034]

Put that 670 in that REV chassis!

[@JoshuaLemire]

I would but I know its hard plus its my brothers sled! and I like my 500ss

[@marcelvezina2742]

That would create a Monster!!

[@jeffreyhagelin3672]

​@@JoshuaLemireThe Crank Shop makes an engine mount for that.

[@MichaelSmith420fu]

What you guys switch sleds at the last moment? Lol

[@GearheadRob319]

Josh, quick ? What kinda back pack are you wearing? And how are they? Im thinking about getting one. Thanks.

[@oklol9778]

what size lugs are you running on that track?

[@oklol9778]

ive got a 600ho the same year it the front end barely comes up, i dont thing its because of the gearing

[@JoshuaLemire]

I'm running 1.5" intense track 121 length in that video it's geared for 94Mph I moved my front skid bolt down 1" and back 1/2" and that helped alot with weight transfer but its alot more tippy when cornering but I'm careful.

[@oklol9778]

@@JoshuaLemire good to know, Thanks!

[@oklol9778]

@@JoshuaLemire do you have a video of you dropping the front skid bolt down, i see where there should be a hole on the side of my tunnel but dont really want to drill any holes without being sure.

[@JoshuaLemire]

I'll send a pic tomorrow do you have an Instagram?

[@scottcooneymusic6736]

that 500ss boots pretty good*

[@JoshuaLemire]

ya she does

[@jackemms2064]

Is there a clutch kit in that 500ss?

[@JoshuaLemire]

no kit but got custom clutching stock clutches. primary spring is 280/460, 417 ramp, pin weight for me is 19.5g but I got trail porting, spi head, spi y-pipe, spi pipe, jaws can, vforce 3 reeds, geared for 87, 1.5 inch intense track, in secondary clutch I know I got 47/44 helix, not sure what I have for spring. my dad set it up. I also got more weight transfer from moving front suspension mount holes down an inch and back half an inch. thats everything I got. its a nice little ripper.

[@jackemms2064]

Wow u got quite a bit done to her. How well did it pick up the skis stock?

[@JoshuaLemire]

@@jackemms2064 didnt pick up the ski's at all. even with everything done to it besides suspension it woudnt. i had to do the suspension mod to get any weight stransfer out of it.

[@jackemms2064]

@@JoshuaLemire Really? Wow would have thought it would have done it a bit. Do u know if the 600ho's have that much more tourque? Surely they should pic the skis up off the ground no problem

[@JoshuaLemire]

@@jackemms2064 my sled actually has 2-3 more lb of torque on the low end then the 600ho. but the ho has 25% more top end so they usually had a 15mph higher top speed. and depending on what suspension they have. i have sc3 if it has sc4 then it will easily pick up ski's but its all how suspension it set up.

[@BengalsFootball9]

i think i have the same Promads on my 2001 SXR 600

[@Turppa21]

close

[@Lil_Lowered_TDI]

The 500ss is very underwhelming

[@wwtf7180]

Nice job leaving big piles of snow on a nicely groomed trail. I hit one of them once from dumb asses doing the very same thing and was thrown off my sled. Have a little respect for others using the trail’s.

[@JoshuaLemire]

I'm not sure where I left snow on the trail ??

[@wwtf7180]

@@JoshuaLemire It’s when you pin the flipper and drag race your buddy on the trail. The track spins and leaves a pile of snow and a long hole in front of it. I came upon one at night and yes I was going to fast and over driving my headlights. I was thrown from the sled at about 60 mph. The sled was heavily damaged and I was pretty bruised up. My season was over because someone decided to leave a big divot and a pile on a nicely groomed trail. I’m not angry at you personally but it’s something to think about. Have a good season.

[@wideopenangling2123]

Trails are made for driving sleds for fun. You should be paying attention when driving on trails in which case you probably wouldn’t of had that crash. It also didn’t seem like they made piles of snow.

[@JoshuaLemire]

I didn't make any piles lol I never have

[@wwtf7180]

@@wideopenangling2123 the trails may be driving sleds for fun but their not for driving dangerously and leaving hazardous conditions for others. Being safe for yourself and others is way more fun. I admit I was going a little to fast for nighttime riding and I learned my lesson so I’m just passing the info on to others so others can learn from my mistakes. Slow down and stay right.
