I Spent $1000.00 Buying a Mountain Sled. How Bad Is It??

[@Noname30000]

Happy to see it’s still a cat! One the the best body style. They looked killer compared to all the competitors in that era

[@syxxes]

I was just lookin for that motor 👌

@@syxxes I have an 06 crossfire,amsoil sense day one and it’s got over 13000 miles. Motors 100% untouched. They don’t make’em like they used too!

DUDE im am so pumped for this! abt 2 years ago i picked up a 05 M6 for 1000 bucks too and the only thing it did was run i mean it should have been a parts sled but i mean like even the hood was rattle caned it was green black white and orange😆 but put some money into her and got her going still having issues tho i think its the fuel pump but i picked up a 16 M8 HCR for my main sled now so my plan is to build the M6 into a skipper! everything will be on my channel once my computer stops throwing fits

[@syxxes]

Everyone seems to think its gonna be a water skipper. Lol

[@wtfayfrffs]

Take head off and measure the bore. Lots of M7/M8 bigbore kits from RK Tek are out there. I have installed a few and they ripped. Work great with a turbo too. Those twin pipes were finicky to tune, ripped when they worked but weather conditions/altitude seemed to affect them. Installed and tuned a few sets of those too but most of the guys went back to singles. Worked on the big bore better.

[@syxxes]

I was actually thinking this exact thing on the way home: "I wonder if this is a bigbore..?"

[@jesse.jsmall0652]

@@syxxes very interesting content coming

[@1GuyGamingCo]

I bet it is rk tech decals, twin and a head on the rim more then willing to bet she’s a big bore! Plus those pistons looked minty fresh

[@RaspyBootLegger]

thanks for making this video!! I bought Two 06 M7s in 2020 and am having trouble learning about them. Both are carbureted, which i guess is rare, one has the big bore kit and Y pipe delete but I'm having trouble getting it to run well. hope to see more content on this machine!!

[@Neel-xe1po]

I needed a sled video in my life !!

[@travisstewart4746]

I just picked one up recently but it is the 1000 version. I bought it for 850 bucks. It needed a brand new clutch so I had to coach for it. I put it on now I am water skipping the machine.

[@mikehd3904]

Got fuel management? Them 1000's love to blow up if not

[@syxxes]

Of the 1000s the cats were definitely the best. For the most part they heald up, but they liked to eat motor mounts. And that was probably the 4 tower clutch too.

[@Yz4Life]

@@mikehd3904your probably thinking of another brands 1000cc, the Suzuki ones were actually very well built engines

Twin pipes don’t have a Y pipe. But man definitely had some good stuff on it for back in the day. Never a fan of the boondocker box myself lol!! With some love that cat will be a monster in the mountains.

[@lancepeck4263]

I love these ol’ m-series sleds. Are you still going to change the skid on your alpha? Put the alpha skid on this old m-series. Then we could be twiners.

[@syxxes]

That's a wicked idea. And I kinda want to do it, but I'm not gonna lol

[@Garretthunt22]

I’m very excited for this series! This is awesome!

[@syxxes]

I'm stoked too!

I still drive my M1000. Works excellent. Mountains 2,3x year. Does whatever a $20k sled does.

[@askmeaboutarcticcats]

Literally has an RK Tek sticker on the hood lol. Probably one of their heads. May even have extra displacement too!

[@syxxes]

Yeah this actually might be an 800, not a 700. I've yet to do any measurements!
